NAME:
“[…] the world population is expected to be 9.3 billion people in 2050. In other words, it will be 50% greater than the 6.1 billion in mid-2000. […] These are the main conclusions of the report World Population Perspectives – Revision 2000, prepared by the United Nations (UN). […] Only six countries account for almost half of this increase: India (21%), China (12%), Pakistan (5%), Nigeria (4%), Bangladesh (4%) and Indonesia (3%). These high rates of expansion contrast with those of more developed countries. In 2000, for example, the population of the European Union had an increase of 343,000 people, while India achieved the same growth in the first week of 2001. […] The United States will be an exception in the group of developed countries. The country will become the only developed country among the 20 most populous in the world.”
