How much has the population decreased in the world?

The population has not decreased in the world, population has increased. Although it all depends on the time-frame you are talking about. And whether you are talking about humans or all animals, and are you talking about one single country or the entire planet. The fluctuation of human population on a yearly basis may look like the population is decreasing, because of all the catastrophes lately, but when you are looking the big picture, a much longer time-frame, you will notice the amount of humans has rapidly grown over few decades. We are very soon running out of space to live on and feed everyone. This statement is based on basic calculations on human population doubling time. For example, given Canada's net population growth of 0.9% in the year 2006, dividing 70 by 0.9 gives an approximate doubling time of 78 years. Thus if the growth rate remains constant, Canada's population would double from its 2006 figure of 33 million to 66 million by 2084. Let me put this in another way. Let's say the world is a bottle (a limited living space). Also, let's pretend we fill the bottle with people 1/4 full today. Also, if the doubling time to the population growth is same rate as in Canada 2006(0,9% growth rate a year), the bottle would be half full by the year 2089. If the growth rate continues to be 0,9% a year, by the year 2167, which is yet another 78 years from 2089, the bottle -the world- would be entirely consumed. Now you may wonder howcome the bottle jumped from half full to entirely full in just a one doubling time. This is because all the population doubles. Not just the second quarter in the bottle. Yes ofcource there are old people, who do not make more children. But that is already taken into calculation in the 0,9% yearly growth rate. The population doubles every 78 years. Unless some kind of natural disaster slows the population growth down.

Wild crickets living in a field have a population density of 2 4 crickets m2 if the fields area is 250m2 what is the aproximite size of the cricket population why would the population density of?

TANK 1 With 200 crickets occupying an area of 0.80 square meters, that gives a population density of . . 200 crickets -------------------------- = ? crickets / square meter 0.80 square meters Is that amount < or = or > the maximum of 210 crickets / square meter?. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = TANK 2 With 150 crickets occupying an area of 0.80 square meters, that gives a population density of . . 150 crickets --------------------------- = ? crickets / square meter 0.80 square meters Is that amount < or = or > the maximum of 210 crickets / square meter?. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = TANK 3 With 315 crickets occupying an area of 1.5 square meters, that gives a population density of . . 315 crickets ------------------------- = ? crickets / square meter 1.5 square meters Is that amount < or = or > the maximum of 210 crickets / square meter?. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = For PROBLEM #1, when you move crickets from tank to tank, remember to change the value of the numerators in the fractions above. EXAMPLE If you remove 10 crickets from tank 2 and put them in tank 3, then decrease tank 2's numerator from 150 to 140 and increase tank 3's numerator from 315 to 325. For PROBLEM #2, we need to rearrange the formula from above (number of crickets) -------------------------- = population density . . . . (area) Multiply both sides of the equal sign by (area). (area)(number of crickets) ----------------------------------- = (area)(population density) . . . . . . . (area) Notice how the (area) on the left side cancels out? (number of crickets) = (area)(population density) (number of crickets) = (250 square meters)(2.4 crickets / square meter) (number of crickets) = ?

Trough attrition. The US has had a larger population than Mexico since the 1820's and as you may notice, if two countries have an even technological advance, the one that wins is usually the one with the larger population.

Is Samoa a RICH Country or a Poor Country?

Samoa is actually a poor country. It has 7th smallest economy, the 72nd smallest income per country, and its GDP growth rate is not enough to consider it a developing nation. At only 2%, it is actually one of the slowest progressing economies in the world; it has the 44th slowest growing economy. To notice the real gap, you must know that there are 196 countries in the world, so Samoa is definitely on the poor half.
