World Population-2006
According to reference.com;
In 2006, the world population will exceed 6,500,000,000 and the United States population will exceed 300,000,000. Worldwide, there are 4.1 births per second and 1.8 deaths per second. In the United States, there is one birth every eight seconds and one death every 13 seconds. China has the world's largest population with over 1,300,000,000 people. One out of every five people in the world live in China.
It's getting to be abit crowded don't you think? Six point five billion people with more than twice the number of newborns over deaths per second and birth is escalating faster than death by 5 secs. Which means more people are coming than going. With improved healthcare, the average life expectancy will increase. But then again, people want to live forever but nobody wants to grow old. Think about it.
And if there are five in your family, how do you decide who goes to China?
