Ch. 6

2. Quick Write – Core Case Study pg
Quick Write – Core Case Study pg. 122 Answer in complete and well thought out sentences
Describe the three factors have lead to the rapid increase in population growth?
Look at figure In about 1,000AD there was a drop in population growth that nearly wiped out the human population. Give a logical explanation as to what might have had this effect on our population.
Doubling time means how fast (number of years) the population doubles in size. What was the doubling time between 1 billion to 2 billion people? 2 billion to 4 billion? 4 to 8 billion (if 8 billion is reached in 2025 as estimated by the UN)?

3. National Geographic – 7 Billion

4. Current population growth trends
The world’s population is currently growing about 1.2% per year.
This adds about 3 people every second.
 count to 10.
About how many
people have been
born in that time?

5. Calculating Population Growth
If the population was at 50,0000 and grew at a rate of 1.2% per year, what would the population be the following year?
If the population was at 7 billion and grew at a rate of 1.2% per year, what would the population be the following year?

6. Calculating Population Growth
If the population was at 50,000 and grew at a rate of 50% per year, what would the population be the following year?
If the population was at 50,000 and grew at a rate of 100% per year, what would the population be the following year?

7. Developed vs. Developing Country
Developing countries are defined according to their Gross National Income (GNI) per capita per year. (how much money is made per person)
Countries with a GNI of US$ 11,905 and less are defined as developing (specified by the World Bank, 2012).

8. Developing vs. Developed Countries
Lower standards of living
Higher standards of living
Small economy
Large economy
Ex: Egypt, Pakistan, Ukraine, Mexico, Turkey, Brazil, South Africa, India, Argentina, Afghanistan, CHINA
Ex: Sweden, Germany, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, USA
China has the second largest economy in the world behind the USA, and they have over 1 billion people, yet 98 million people live below the national poverty line.

9. Global village of 100 people
50 males
50 females
61 Asians
(19 from China 18 from India)
15 Africans
10 Europeans
9 South American
5 North Americans (including the most powerful man, the US President)
Write down two facts that surprised you!

10. Global village of 100 people
26 would be under 14 years old (pre-reproductive stage) 
8 are 65 years and over (post-reproductive stage)
66 between the ages of 14 and 65 (reproductive stage)

11. Global village of 100 people
82 would be from less developed countries with an average income of US$ 5,440 in a year ($15 a day), but 51 of those would live on less than $2 a day
18 would be from developed countries
with an average income
of US$ 32,470 in a year
($90 a day)

12. Global village of 100 people
40 would lack access to basic sanitation and 13 would lack access to safe drinking water.
There would be 77 mobile phones, but unequally distributed, some would have 2 or more cell phones, other none.
33 would be Internet users, 15 would have Internet access from home and 12 would be active users of Facebook.

13. Global village of 100 people
17 would be overweight 
13 would suffer from malnutrition.
10 would have no job
11 would have cars or light trucks
7 would be unable to read and write (age 15 and over)
7 would have a college education.
Half of the entire village's wealth would be in the hands of only 6 people, and most of them would be citizens of the United States.

14. In general…
The global wealth and resources are pretty unevenly distributed.
If you live in the United States, you have it pretty well off compared to others around the world.

15. Warm Up 11/18/2014
There are 7 million people in the world. If the population grew at a rate of 1.2% how many people would be added to the population over 13 years?
What are three population growth trends occurring in the world right now?
What is the difference between developed and developing countries? What % of the world is developed? Developing?
What are the two most populous countries in the world?

16. 3 Population Growth Trends
Overall the world population growth has slowed down (currently about 1.2%)
Population growth is unevenly distributed around the world.
Of the new 84 million people in 2012, 2% were from developed countries and 98% were from developing countries.
Three most populous countries are:
China (19%), India (18%), United States(5%)
ASK YOUR SELF --- WHY?!?!
84 million people per year!!!
The two most populous countries are developing!! NOT DEVELOPED YET! Lots of people living in poverty with low standards of living.

17. 3 Population Growth Trends
People are moving from rural to urban areas.
More than half of the world’s population now live in urban areas (cities).
21 mega cities with over 10 million people

19. How many people can the earth support?
What is the carrying capacity of the earth?
A BETTER QUESTION WOULD BE:
What is the cultural carrying capacity?
What’s that thing that ultimately limits population growth.

20. Cultural Carrying Capacity
The number of people who can live in reasonable freedom and comfort without
decreasing the
ability of the
earth to sustain
future generations
For example: Americans want to drive cars, watch tv, have cell phones and computers. That’s our typical or normal culture. We need lots of water, food land and oil and coal to live in this culture
In Africa there culture is to have children walk a mile to school, the women walk a mile or less to the nearest well to get food they share their meals and cook for one another. They have community gardens or crops.

21. Measuring Population Growth
How can we calculate population change?
Population change = (births + immigration) – (deaths + emigration)
Calculating total births and deaths is a large number.
Crude birth rate – number births per 1,000 people
Crude death rate – number deaths per 1,000 people

22. Measuring Population Growth
Fertility Rate – how many children are born in a population over a set period of time.
Replacement fertility rate-
the average number of children parents must have to replace themselves and the whole population.
How many children must be had per woman to keep the population number level. Not increasing or decreasing but level.

23. Replacement Fertility Rate
Globally, this number is slightly higher than 2 children per couple.
WHY do you think this is?
About 2.1 children/woman in developed countries
About 2.5 children/woman in developing countries
Why, if under developed countries are growing faster and contributing to more of the world population growth than more developed countries, do they need to have more babies to replace the population?

24. Total Fertility Rate (TFR)
The average number of children born to a women in her reproductive years.
Between 1955 and 2012 (57 years):
In more-developed countries TFR dropped from 2.8 to 1.6
In less- developed countries TFR dropped from 6.2 to 2.5

25. Total Fertility Rate (TFR)
The world population is still growing exponentially, But what are some things you think may have contribute to a slowing down of the world’s population growth? Open to page S44 and S45 in the supplement section towards the back of the book.

26. Fertility Rate Factors
1 Child labor force
In less developed countries children are uses to help with field work, tending live stock, hauling water, cooking etc.
They want more work so they have more kids

27. Fertility Rate Factors
2 Cost of raising and educating children
In developed countries children do not enter the work force until their late teens or twenties.
It cost about $235, $304,000 to raise a middle class child from birth to age 18.
Too expensive so developed countries have less kids

28. Fertility Rate Factors
3 Number of Infant deaths
In countries with poor sanitation, lack of nutrition and health care there is a higher rate of infant mortality.
Therefore women tend to have
more babies within their life time.
In 1960 the women in Bangladesh
had 7 children on average!

29. Fertility Rate Factors
3 Number of Infant deaths
In countries with low infant death
rates women tend to have less
children because their children live
through infancy.
Average of 4 million infants die
a year from ‘preventable’ causes
(average of 11,000 per day)
This is like 55 jet airline planes each loaded with 200 infants under the age of 1, all crashing and leaving no survivors!!

30. Fertility Rate Factors
4 Life Expectancy
The average number of years a person would be expected to live.
Global life expectancy has increase from 48 years to 70 years.
In countries with longer life spans and fewer infant mortalities women tend to have less children
Average USA life span is 79 years old.

31. Fertility Rate Factors
5 Women Empowerment
Women with access to education and work opportunities tend to have less children
Women without a high school education and opportunities outside of the house tend to have more than two children

32. Fertility Rate Factors
5 Woman Empowerment
In Africa, Latin America and Asia, women do 60-80% of work associated with growing food, gathering, hauling wood and water.
Most of this is unpaid work!
Globally 300 million school aged girls do NOT attend school (3 times the entire USA population) and cannot read or write.
As women become empowered they take charge of their life and reproductive behavior

33. Fertility Rate Factors
6 Religious beliefs, traditions and cultural norms
In some cultures having a large family is encouraged!
Ex: Muslims believe Allah, their god, wants them to have many children

34. Fertility Rate Factors
7 Average age of marriage and family planning
In developed countries women get married at a older age and have education in family planning.
The availability of abortions and reliable birth control allows women to control the number of children they have.
Each year about 210 million women become pregnant and about 42 million have abortions (22 million legally and 20 million illegally) according to the World Health Organization.

35. Warm Up 11/19/2014
What is cultural carrying capacity?
What is the difference between birth rate and crude birth rate?

37. Article Discussion
On the back of your article, summarize the main points and topics in 5-10 sentences.
Explain your article to your neighbor and discuss the questions you answered last night.
(3 minutes each)
Create two questions pertaining to your neighbor’s article, that you would like to know more about.
Reflect. What do you personally think, feel or believe about the moral, ethical, social or legal ways population growth and fertility rates have been dealt with by both Afghanistan and China.

38. Fertility Rate Articles
Afghanistan
China
Read the article and underline or highlight the main ideas.
Answer the following in complete and well thought sentences:
How has this country tried to regulate their population growth?
What have been the results of their efforts?
Do agree or disagree with their methods? Why?

39. China’s One Child Policy
Put into effect in 1979, Chinese families were only allowed to have one child.
This was in response to a famine that occurred in the 1970’s due to a rapid population growth rate. At that time fertility rate was about 7.5

40. China
Consequences of One-Child Policy
Forced Abortion

41. Thinking Points What benefits have come from China’s one child policy.
What problems have come, and are expected to come, from China’s effort to control it’s population.
Do you think China should keep their one- child policy? Why?

42. Afghanistan/Islam Birth rate is around 5.5 children per woman.
Dude to low sanitation and health care many children and woman may die during or shortly after childbirth.
Tradition, culture and religion (Islam) contribute to high fertility rates.

43. Map and Data Analysis
Open to page S44 and S45 in the supplement section towards the back of the book.
Look at all three maps.
Discuss with your neighbor the answers to the questions under each map.

44. Effect of Age Structure on Population Growth
Age structure – the number or percent of males and females in young, middle and older age groups.
Pre-reproductive (0-14)
Reproductive (15-44)
Post-reproductive (over 45)

45. Effect of Age Structure on Population Growth
Age structure can be used to predict the future population growth of that country.
Important factors of age structure:
Number and proportion of individuals in each age group.
The number of males versus the number of females in each age group.

46. Age Structure Diagrams
From the age structure data, a diagram can be created to help predict the future growth of a population
Age Structure Diagrams can tell you:
If a population is increasing, stable or shrinking
Population growth momentum- even if people are having less children, the effect won’t take place until much later when the children reach reproductive maturity

48. There are three scenarios:
1. Expanding/growing population- pyramid shape, has more children than any other age group.- Nigeria, Kenya, United States 2. Stable populations- Number of children is roughly the same as the number of reproductive adults- European countries 3. Declining population- diamond shape, Pre-reproductive group is smaller that the elder - Russia, Bulgaria and Germany

50. USA

51. Mexico Population increases but it is predicted to stabilize

52. Finland

53. What do you predict to happen to Germany’s population in 45 years?

58. Over Population
From what you have learned in class so far, do you think our world is overpopulated? (over populated as in we have overstepped the carrying capacity of the world and will eventually experience a population crash.)
Why do you think this?

Reflection (we will do this at the end on Monday)

60. Demography
the study of statistics such as births, deaths, income, or the incidence of disease, which illustrate the changing structure of human populations

61. Demographic Transition Model (DTM)
The transition from high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates as a country develops from a pre-industrial to an industrialized economic system.

62. Four Stages of Demographic Transition
Stage 1 – Pre-modern or pre-industrialization – High birth and high death rates.
Stage 2 – Urbanization/ Industrialization - death rates decline rapidly as health care is improved. Birth rates stay about the same. Population undergoes rapid population growth.
Stage 3 – Mature Industrialization – Birth and death rates are both decreasing as health care and technology improve and life spans increase.
Stage 4 – Post Industrialization – Birth and death rates even out and the population growth slows down.

65. Decline Stage 5 Estimated…
Death rates stay about the same as birth rates decline
We are just beginning to see this in European Countries and don’t fully know the effects.

68. Population Calculations
Birth or Death Rates
Population Growth Rate
Doubling time
Population density

69. Calculating Birth / Death Rate
# of births or deaths per year Total Population

70. Calculating Population Growth Rate
What factors account for change in population size?
Population change = (births + immigration) – (deaths + emigration)
Population growth rate – the rate of increase of the population per year.
Growth rate =
(births + immigration) – (deaths + emigration)
Total Population

71. Calculating Doubling Time of a Population
If a population is growing exponentially at a constant rate there is an easy rule to go by…
The rule of 70:
Population Doubling Time: _________70%_______ % Population growth
OR _________0.7_______
Population growth (as decimal)

72. Calculating Population Density
Population Density – the number of people in a given area
Pop. Density= Population
Area size
Number of people per square Mile:
New York, N.Y.: 27,012.4 
San Francisco, Calif.: 17,179.2
