Hans Rosling: Global population growth, box by box
Economy | Information | History | Online | Facts | World | Global | Money
http://www.ted.com The world's population will grow to 9 billion over the next 50 years -- and only by raising the living standards of the poorest can we check population growth. This is the paradoxical answer that Hans Rosling unveils at TED@Cannes using colorful new data display technology (you'll see).

I want 10 billion before I die
-
When this video was made, there was still 6 billion people in the world
-
People in the west should be honored to be the foundation on which the rest of the world develops. We can be the spark that ushers in a new and better world.

Sus conclusiones son una falacia.
-
That was in 2010. Now in 2016 there are 11 boxes.
-
10:00 The cringe its too strong
-
"We can stop at 9 billion if we do the right things" In a more recent talk Rosling states world population will stop at 11 billion. We are obviously not doing the right things.
-
this should be mandatory lecture in every school on the world!
-
We can't physically do the nine boxes on the right thing; the earth simply cannot provide that amount of resource. We're pushing it over the edge now with only two.
-
One of the best speakers I've encountered.
-
Great!
-
very helpful!
-
it's confusing how improving child survival would actually decrease population growth when people getting longer lives would only add up to the ever growing population. growth would only decline if people die or if they produce less babies
-
What's his message in this video, he never says it, so what is it?
-
1000

I'm sorry but we need a population revolution for the world to truly change for the better. We need to educate people in third world countries how not to have children. If we can't get the world to go back to 5 billion in 43 years were definetely doomed to parish under the heat of the sun. Our pollution and over population will destroy the world.

U LOOK SO GERMAN
-
Sounds to me like 3rd worlders are too stupid to not have kids they cant afford to feed. And rich spoiled 1st worlders are too self centered and materialistic to have enough kids to sustain their population.
-
Isn't this the same as all his other talks?
-
iam not betting on 9 billion people. 7 billion cant stand each other, how will 9 billion, live in peace????
