Population Numbers:

  • What accounts for the increase in the world human population?
  • Decline in Fertility Rates explain why increase is not larger. fertrates.html
  • Mapping the world population: a study in contrasts.
For an analysis of world population numbers and predictions, see Amy Boomer's page Population Concerns

Contrasting Economies:
  • Data contrasting high GNP, middle GNP, and low GNP countries
Health and Death:
  • Health Concerns, Age at Death, and Causes of Death
For a great reference on population concerns: Check the National Geographic October 1998: Millenium Supplement: Population: Migration, Women, Food Supply
