It took 200,000 years for our human population to reach 1 billion—and only 200 years to reach 7 billion. But growth has begun slowing, as women have fewer babies on average. When will our global population peak? And how can we minimize our impact on Earth’s resources, even as we approach 11 billion?

7 billion humans and i am still single.
-
quite terrifying when you realize that around 7% of all people that ever existed are currently alive
-
its so crazy to think when my grandmother was born, there were only about 2 billion people.... insane
-
According to some estimates, about 117 billion humans have ever lived on Earth since 190,000 BCE. The current global population is about 7.8 billion, which means that those alive today represent nearly 7% of the total number of people who have ever lived. This also means that there are about 15 dead people for every person living.

That moment when you realize the deadliest events in history barely made a mark on the world population

Genghis Khan exists 30 million people: adios

I find it very interesting to realize that we, as a species, are growing so fast due to some "random" inventions through time, like fire, writing and farming. Before that we were just like other species: powerless and poor. All these inventions gave us food, wealth and time (to even think and create better inventions) . Other species need to fight for survival all the time, while we made possible to watch some YouTube videos and not worry about being killed because something else is hungry. It is like we are inside a game that everyone loses but we are cheating
-
Infant mortality is staggering, historically speaking, when you consider how fast population skyrocketed after it was virtually eliminated.

how many yellow dots do you want? India: Shine bright like a diamond
-
Wow India has so much population that it's border is even visible😂
-
This video is best viewed through a big screen. There's so much details that you might missed in smaller screen. Thanks a lot to the content maker for providing such a magnificient display of populations growth over centuries.

“It took 200000 years for our population to reach 1 billion. And only 200 years to reach 7 billion.” Me: man we’ve been busy...
-
Its like whats happening to YouTube channels, when they hit 1 million over the course of 2 to 6 years, another million gets added within the next year.
-
And now currently we're all starting to mix into one. Which is kind of beautiful when you think of it. Others rarely saw how other people lived
-
It's officially 8 billion people now.

Plague inc players: Here we go again

Part of me wishes I was born in a time where most of earth was undiscovered.
-
I like how the population tracker sounds like a Geiger counter! Very nice touch.
-
To realize there is a point in time when a person could look upon vast tracts of land no one had ever seen forever.
