Population growth
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In biology, population growth is the increase in the number of individuals in a population.
Global human population growth amounts to around 75 million annually, or 1.1% per year. The global population has grown from 1 billion in 1800 to 7 billion in 2012. It is expected to keep growing, where estimates have put the total population at 8.4 billion by mid-2030, and 9.6 billion by mid-2050.[1]
