World Population

The line graph shows the population growth between years 1750 to 2150. The graph gives you the number of population in more developed countries and less developed countries. This was from the United Nations, World Population Prospect, and the 1988 Revision. The estimates by the population reference bureau.
The world population in 1750 was less than 1 billion in both more and less developed countries. The less developed countries are about three times more than more developed countries. In the years between 1800 and 1950 there was a rise in the population growth especially in the less developed countries. In 2000 the less developed countries had a population recorded of 6.1 billion. In 2050 the world population is estimated to be closely 10 billion in less developed countries and it may rise more in the coming years. The more developed is estimated to rise between 2000 and 2050 and also with a slight decrease.
In conclusion , total world population will increase dramatically . but the striking thing is that the biggest increase in the population in less developed countries while on the other hand more developed countries will stay under 1 billion and may slightly fall down.
