2 2 World Population, 400 BCE - 2000 CE

3 3 But the growth was not equal everywhere! World Population in long 19 th century

4 4 YearPopulation in Millions % of World Population 175014119.3 185029225.0 190048230.0 World Population of People of European Descent in Europe, the United States, and Canada combined. For example, the population of European descent in these three regions grew significantly between 1750 and 1900.

11 11 But a growing population meant that human need for resources—for energy—was growing, too. And humans dealt with this need by using fossil fuels. Watch!

13 13 Parson’s turbine, 1884 CE 100,000 watts

14 14 The Fossil Fuel Revolution The biological old regime ends when vast new sources of energy come into use: Coal Electricity Gas Petroleum Nuclear

15 15 By taking energy from fossil fuels like coal instead of biomass like wood…

16 16 The Fossil Fuel Revolution Over millions of years, ancient forests change into peat, then coal.

17 17 and with better and better steam engines to harness coal’s energy…

18 18 Power loom weaving Lancashire, 1835 People could produce more efficiently.

19 19 In Britain coal mines were close to factories and cities. In China coal mines were far from factories and cities. How might history have been different if the closest sources of coal available to Britain were, say, in the Carpathian Mountains of southeastern Europe?

48 48 The Modern Revolution meant powerful economic growth in the world as a whole. World Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Dollars as valued in 1990

59 59 Russia Mexico Japan Egypt Modernize the army. Modernize the economy. Maintain independence.

60 60 People who traveled to learn about one part of the Modern Revolution, like fossil fuels,….

61 61 also learned about the democratic part of the Modern Revolution.

62 62 And they didn’t keep the ideas to themselves. They communicated them, because it was all part of the package.

63 63 And powerful elites who wanted to modernize in some ways did not count on people demanding the democratic part of the package.
