  • The world has grown. The UN calculates that there are more than seven billion of us on this planet, when 200 years ago there were less than a billion.

    "This is the most conspicuous fact about world population growth: for thousands of years, population grew only slowly, but in recent centuries it has jumped dramatically," Drs Esteban Ortiz Ospina and Max Roser of Our World in Data, an Oxford University thinktank, explain.

    However, while it is true that the rate of the population has grown quickly - Our World in Data explains that between 1900 and 2000 the increase in world population was three times greater than the entire previous history of humanity - an increase from 1.5bn to 6.1bn in just 100 years - the rate of growth has now slowed.
