As I read up and share with you information about our world population, I've never really discussed overpopulation. There's no doubt about it, we're growing at an alarming rate, and this plays a huge part on our ecosystem - the statistics and numbers are astonishing. Earlier, we calculated what number we were in the world's population when we were born, we've looked at statistics as if the world were a village of 100 people, and we've looked at a video explaining how we got big so fast.
With the 7 billionth person born, check out Lapham's Quarterly, A magazine of history and ideas. On their "Future" issue, they laid out a map (above) indicating the "very real" changes the Earth will undergo by the year 2050. It's pretty amazing. Check out these very real changes by clicking on the map.
