Just saw this in Developer Magazine … Some surprising demographic projections
- By 2030, 60 percent of all people will live in cities and their suburbs;
- In that same time period, they estimate that 7 out of 10 those people will reside in either Africa or Asia
- China, India and the US are the three most populous nations today (in that order)
- By 2030, India will surpass China in population
Wow! The first one is the reason I write this blog. Duh. The second fact is surprising because we in this hemisphere think we’re the most important and thusly the most numerous. The third one surprised me because I thought Brazil or Russia would be more populous that the US. And the final one shocked me … Inida? Really?!
