And how is the government trying to tackle the problem? Human Geography - A Changing World - Learning Points. Japan, like many developed countries, is under threat from a declining population. Life expectancy in Japan is around 83 years, with 20% of the population aged 65+. An ageing population will create problems for Japan, as the number of retirees will increase more quickly than that of the number of workers. Japanese governments have introduced measures to encourage population growth, including 1994's 'Angel Plan'. A Twig Context Film. Reinforce and extend the learning required by the curriculum. Twig’s context films show abstract concepts in action in the real world.\n
