4. OBJECTIVES: 1.To understand that the earth’s population is increasing and to be able to explain why. 2.To define birth rate, death rate and natural increase 3.To identify factors that affect population change OBJECTIVES: 1.To understand that the earth’s population is increasing and to be able to explain why. 2.To define birth rate, death rate and natural increase 3.To identify factors that affect population change

5. KCo What is the population of the world? Jot down your answer in the back of your book What is the population of the world? Jot down your answer in the back of your book www.odci.gov/cia/publications/factbook How accurate were you? World Population clock Weblink

6. At present the world's population is growing quickly, though this has not always been the case. Until the 1800s the world's population grew slowly for thousands of years. In 1820 the world's population reached one billion. In the early 1970s, the world's population reached three billion. In 1999, less than 30 years later, the population doubled to six billion (population explosion) The global rate of population growth is now one billion every 15 years. The graph shows this pattern of accelerating growth (including the predicted population for 2025). At present the world's population is growing quickly, though this has not always been the case.

State the trend/ pattern (increase/ decrease/remains steady) Highest and lowest figures Quote figures to support key ideas Skills task: How would you describe this graph showing world population growth?

7. What does this graph suggest about the growth in the world population? What are developed and developing countries? Why do you think there is such a difference between them in terms of population growth? What does this graph suggest about the growth in the world population?

8. Population change depends mainly upon the balance between: Birth rate Death rate Migration Birth rate- the number of live babies born in a year for every 1000 people in the total population, e.g. 25/1000 Death rate- the number of deaths each year per 1000 people in the total population Natural increase- the difference between the birth rate and death rate Birth rate – death rate = natural increase Record these key terms and equations in your exercise book.

9. KCo How do these factors affect the total population?

Use your times and the figures from the previous table to describe 2 ideas. e.g. It takes me 13 seconds to run 100 metres. In that time there would be an extra 53 births.

17. KCo Population growth has not been even throughout the world. The fastest growth has been in the poorer, less economically developed countries. There is very slow growth in the richer, more economically developed countries. Why do LEDCs have higher birth rates? Why do MEDCs have lower death rates? Why do LEDCs have higher birth rates? Why do MEDCs have lower death rates?
