World Population Growth During the first 90% of human existence, the population of the world had grown only to the size of today’s New York City. Between 1750 and 1950, the world’s population grew from 800 million to 2.5 billion. Since 1950 it has expanded to more than six billion.

Doubling Time The time required for a population to double if the current rate of growth continues. The doubling time is approximately equal to 69 divided by the growth rate. Estimate the world’s rate of growth in the year 2003 to be 1.2% per year, the doubling time is 58 years.

Why Was Early Growth Slow? During the first 99% of human history death rates were high. During the hunting-gathering phase, life expectancy averaged 20 years. More than half of children born will died before 5. The average woman who survived the reproductive years would have to bear nearly 7 children to assure 2 survived to adulthood.

Why Are More Recent Increases so Rapid? Acceleration in population after 1750 was due to declines in the death rate that accompanied the Industrial Revolution. People were eating better, wearing warmer clothes, bathing more often and drinking cleaner water. Continuing population increases are due to dramatic declines in mortality without a commensurate decline in fertility.

Redistribution of the World’s Population through Migration Migration streams flow from rapidly growing areas into less rapidly growing ones: Latin America and Asia to the United States Asia to Canada Africa and Asia to Europe In earlier decades, as population grew dense in a region, people moved to less populated areas.

European Expansion Europeans began to stake out the less developed areas of the world in the 15th and 16th centuries. Before this expansion, Europeans represented 18% of the world’s population. By the 1930s, people of European origin in Europe, North America, and Oceania accounted for 35% of the world’s population.

The Urban Revolution As recently as 1800, less than 1% of the world’s population lived in cities of 100,000 or more. More than 1/3 of all humans now live in cities of that size. Urban populations grew in some countries even without industrialization, as places sprang up where goods and services were exchanged.
