Population Growth
At the beginning of the 20th Century, the world
population was 1.5 billion; by the end of the 20th
Century it had risen to 6 billion.
Considering that it took 10,000 years after of the
last ice age for the population to rise to the 1.5
billion mark, the rate of growth from 1.5 to 6 billion
people is remarkable
