World Population

Today in class we discussed terms and other things we should know for the new and upcoming unit. We had a plethora of new terms that we learned about. For example crude birth rate. I have never heard of this word but I was familiar with some others such as life expectancy. On top of these new terms we watched a power point that Mr.Schick created for the sake of the class. I was interested in this power point because he brought up some cool facts like how the world’s population has grown. Did you know that it took 10,000 plus years for the earth’s population to reach 1 billion and then from then on the number of years it takes for another billion keeps decreasing. It was a very interesting class.
