Its report says there were 74 million more people in 2002 - well below the 87 million added in 1989-90. The rate of growth peaked 40 years ago, when it stood at about 2.2% a year. The bureau partly attributes the drop to women having fewer children. It also projects a population decline in Africa because of the lower life expectancy due to HIV-Aids.

World Population Growth (Adapted from the World Population Growth project developed by Duke University’s Connected Curriculum Project, see http://math.duke.edu/education/ccp This project may be done in a group of up to 4 people. Each member of the group will receive the same grade. The project is due Tuesday, February 12. Part 1: Background: Natural and Coalition Models Only in the 20th century has it become possible to make reasonable estimates of the entire human population of the world, current or past. The following table lists some of those estimates, based in part on data considered "most reliable" in a 1970 paper and in part on both overlapping and more recent data from the U. S. Census Bureau. Of course, the earliest entries are at best educated guesses. The later entries are more likely to be correct at least to have the right order of magnitude but you should be aware that there is no "world census" like the decennial U. S. census, in which an attempt is made to count every individual in this country. Year (CE) Population (millions) Year (CE) Population (millions) Sources: (1) A. L. Austin and J. W.

@import "../templates/css/header.css"; Home About Text-Only July 2006 Monthly Update: World Population GrowthPast, Present, and Future Submitted by Tom Damassa on Tue, 2006-08-01 13:50 Around 1800 A.D., the earth's population reached 1 billion people. That number rose to 3 billion by 1960. Since then, world population has increased by another 1 billion people every 12-14 years. This unprecedented growth rate has led to a more-than doubling of global population over the last fifty years. Today, the total global population is approximately 6.5 billion people and best projections anticipate continued rapid increases in coming decades. Total and projected world population: 1950-2050 Original data comes from the United Nations Population Division Population Prospects: The 2004 Revision . Analytical report and CD-ROM are available online. World population is currently growing by 1.1 percent annually. As shown in the chart above, nearly all of this population growth is occurring within developing countries. As a result, roughly 9 in 10 children (1.6 billion total children) under the age of 15 currently reside in developing parts of the world, up from 7 in 10 in 1950 ( EarthTrends and UNPD ). By 2050, total population is expected to reach 9.1 billion (medium projection) despite overall declines in population growth rates. Major growth is expected to occur in developing countries' urban populations; assuming current trends "poor countries will have to build the equivalent of a city of more than one million people each week for the next 45 years" (Cohen, 2005). Limited access to health care, contraception, and education in many of these countries has resulted in national demographic trends that exhibit stark contrasts to those of the industrialized world (e.g.
