Line Graph: Population Growth, 1750-2150


The graph shows the population growth in richer and poorer countries between 1750 and 2150; it can be clearly seen that growth shot up between 1950 and 2050.

In 1750 up to 1900 the population of the world was stable; in 1900 to 1950 was the beginning of the quickes growth of population. In 2000 the population of the world reached 6.1 billion or three times what it was in 1950. The population of the world will be between 8 and 10 billion in 2050 and the population between 2100 and 2150 is predicted to be over 10 billion.

In conclusion we can see that the population of the world is still growing and growing and the sharpest increase in the graph is between 1950 and 2050. Then it is estimated to grow more slowly.
