Mr. Schick Got Sick?
Today Mr. Schick is gone and we have an assignment to do on our blogs so I can't be Dr. Seuss today because I need myself and Mr. Schick to take this seriously (not that I dont take blogging seriously, I just like to make them a little more interesting than what most people would). So, on that note, here is my assignment.

1. Positive growth rates mean that the population is now bigger than what is was in the past.
2. Most countries moved into the second stage of the Demographic Transition due to the industrial revolution, but other countries moved into this stage due to the medical revolution.
3. The population in stage four of the demographic transition can be quite large because up until this stage, the population was always growing.
Video #2

1. From the agricultural revolution to the industrial revolution the worlds population grew by only 67,000 people per year, but today our population gains that many people every 6-7 hours.
2. Because our CBR is much higher than our CDR, our population is continuously growing and isnt expected to level off until the year 2050, when our population reaches about 9-10 billion people.
3. Most of human history takes place in stage one because our mortality rate was astronomicaly high, things such as famine, the plague, war, and poor living conditions caused these high death rates. To make up for all the loss, people had to have loads of babies in order to get us out of stage one, which happened around the 1750's.
Video #3

1. The worlds population has always been growing, but at a very slow rate. It wasn't until the industrial revolution that we actually began to have significant population growth.
2. Due to Japan's declining population, it is very possible that they have entered a 'stage five' (which the demographic transition doesn't include). The fith stage is about population decline and Japan's population is expected to decline by 21% over the next 30 years (2050).
3. We can measure population growth by calculating the 'Doubling Time', which is done by dividing 70 by the growth rate (70/growth rate (r)). Doubling Time is the length of time it takes for a population to double in size.
The most helpful video I watched today was either the second one (Kim Smith) or the third one. I know that we should just choose one but I liked those two a lot and I couldn't choose which one I liked better. All three videos and the handout were very helpful and I feel that I understand the concept well. I like Kim because she gives us a lot of background information and she explains what she is talking about. I like the second video because it shows lots of graphs, formulas, and, models to prove to us that there may or may not have been a population change (or any other change).
