                            The line graph shows the population growth in richer and poorer countries between 1750 and 2150. In this essay I will describe the information in the line graph.

            This graph shows us the number of people in 1750 was less than 1 billion. The size of the population increased between 1850 to 1900. However there was a sharp increase between 1950 and 2000 which was 6.1 billion. In 2050 the number of the population will increase to 9 billion. The highest number of population will be in 2150 which will be 10 billion.

            In conclusion the poorer countries have grown more than the richer countries, while richer countries won’t grow too much and the size of the population has increased and will increase with the number of years.
