The document discusses several key topics relating to population:
- World population has grown from 1 billion to over 7 billion in the last 200 years. Demography statistically studies human populations and helps understand population change.
- Censuses gather important demographic, economic and social data about populations every 5-10 years in developed countries, though data is less accurate in developing nations.
- Population change is influenced by births, deaths, and migration. Immigration is a major driver of population growth in Canada due to low fertility rates.

More recently another measure, the Human Development Index (HDI), which combines an economic measure, national income, with other measures, indices for life expectancy and education has become prominent. This criterion would define developed countries as those with a very high (HDI) rating. A developing country, also called a less developed country is a nation with a less developed industrial base, and a low Human Development Index (HDI) relative to developed countries.
Developing countries are, in general, countries that have not achieved a significant degree of industrialization relative to their populations, and have, in most cases, a medium to low standard of living. There is a strong association between low income and high population growth. The World Bank classifies all low- and middle-income countries as developing but notes, "The use of the term is convenient; it is not intended to imply that all economies in the group are experiencing similar development or that other economies have reached a preferred or final stage of development. Classification by income does not necessarily reflect development status. gender equity refers to the economic, social, political, and cultural attributes and opportunities associated with being male or female.

2. World Population:
7+ billion and counting
• Around 200 years ago, the world had a population of
around 1 billion people. Today, there are more than
7+ billion people on the planet.
3.
4. Demography
• Demography: the statistical study of human
populations.
• Demography helps us to understand the causes
and consequences of population change.
• Population change in your community, in Canada,
and all over the world is important and ongoing
concern to agencies such as government and
business.
• Why do you think that population growth is
important for these agencies?
5. The Census: The most complete way to gather
information about a population
• The “total process of collecting, compiling, and
publishing demographic, economic, and social data
pertaining to a particular time, to all persons in a
particular country.”
• Since 1867, Canada has had a major census every ten
years, and a less detailed one every five years.
• In developing countries, the census data is usually
much less accurate. Why?
• Census data has to be looked at with caution, even in
developed countries. Ex. How to make sure that all
the homeless are counted?
6. Population Rates
• Population change is affected by births, deaths,
and how many people move in/out of a country.
• Births – deaths + immigrants – emigrants =
increase or decrease in a population
• Births- deaths= Natural population growth
• Births – deaths + immigration- emigration= Total
population growth
Immigrants = moving into a country
Emigrants = moving out of a country
7. The Effect of Migrations
• Immigration rate: the rate at which people immigrate to a country,
usually based on the number of people per thousand who enter a
country.
• Emigration rate: the rate at which people emigrate, usually based on
the number of people per thousand who leave a country.
• Net migration rate: the difference between the immigration rate and
the emigration rate.
• Migration rates depend on “pull factors” that draw people into a
country and “push factors” that encourage people to move out of a
country.
• Negative Migration Rate: when more people are emigrating from a
country than immigrating to it.
• Think/Pair/Share: What push and pull factors have impacted
immigration to Canada? How has this impacted on Canadian
Identity?
8. Immigration and Canada
• Canada is a country in which immigration
affects population growth.
• Immigration is one of the main reasons that
Canada’s population continues to grow.
• Canada has a negative natural population
growth due to a low total fertility rate
(average number of children a woman has
over the course of her life)
9. China’s “One Child Policy”
• Nearly 1/5 of the world lives in China. Even though growth rates are
below the world average, China adds nearly 20 million children to its
population each year. That is over half of the population of Canada!
Being dependent on agriculture, and only having 15% of their land
suitable for cultivation, 20 million more mouths to feed is a huge
amount.
• In 1980, the Chinese government launched a new policy of one child
per family. Cash rewards, free medical care, and improved
educational and housing opportunities were given to those families
who only had one child. People who did not cooperate were fined for
each child they had after their first born, and lost many privileges. In
some cases, if the first child was a girl (sons were valued as labourers
and expected to look after their parents in old age) or born with a
disability, a family was allowed to have another.
• Think/Pair/Share: Should the government have the authority to
dictate how many children people have? What is the solution to the
Global population problem? What are the possible drawbacks of a
“one child” policy?
10.
11. Comparing births and deaths across
populations
• Since the countries of the world have very different
populations, it is important not to simply look at the
number of births and deaths because it is not very
useful. This is why demographers measure birth
rates and death rates.
• The crude birth rate and the crude death rate are
expressed in a number per thousand.
13. The Rule of Seventy
• Doubling time is the period of years in which it takes
for a country to double its population (at its current
birth rate).
• It is approximately equal to seventy divided by the
growth rate (%) per year.
• The Malthusian growth model, sometimes called the
simple exponential growth model, is essentially a
model of exponential population growth.
• Named after the Reverend Thomas Malthus, who
wrote An Essay on the Principle of Population, early
book on human population.
14.
15. Population Distribution
• The way that people are spaced over the earth’s surface.
• Approximately 35% of the world’s land area is not good for
settlement. Where would this include?
• Ecumene: the permanently inhabited portion of the earth as
distinguished from the uninhabited or temporarily inhabited
area.
• The carrying capacity of a species in an environment is the
maximum population size of the species that the environment
can sustain indefinitely, given the food, habitat, water and
other necessities available in the environment.
• Did you know?
Over half of the world’s population lives on only 5% of the
land, and 90% of people live on 20% of the land!
18. Population Density
• Population Density: the number of people living per
unit of an area (e.g. per square kilometer)
• Reasons for Population Density:
• Job opportunities
• Housing
• Weather climates
• Economics
• Education
19. Nutritional Density
• Nutritional Density: a measure of how much
nutrition in calories can be produced from the
land.
• Ex. The Fraser Valley has rich soil but has a short
growing season, unlike somewhere like Southern
China, which has an ideal climate for agriculture.
While the Fraser Valley produces one crop per
year, China will produce three, resulting in far
more food per km² of farmland.
20. The Demographic Transition Model
• Shows change over a period of time in three
elements: birth rates, death rates and trends
in overall population numbers
• Assumes that in any country, high birth rates
and high death rates will gradually fall, as
developing countries pass through periods of
industrialization and urbanization.
21. There are five stages to the model:
• Stage 1: High birth and death rates means there is no longterm natural increase
• Stage 2: High birth rates and declining death rates produce
high rates of population growth
• Stage 3: Both birth rates and death rates decline and the rate
of natural increase begins to slow down.
• Stage 4: Low birth and death rates produce no long-term
natural increase.
• Stage 5: Really low birth rate and low death rate allows for
the decrease in population.
• Where is Canada in this model?
23. The Age Structure of Populations
• Dependency Ratio: the proportion of the
population that is being supported by the working
age group.
• Dependents are the people who are either too
young (under 15) or too old (over 65) to support
themselves.
• A high dependency ratio places a higher financial
burden on those who work, because they have
more people to support.
24. Think/Pair/Share:
•
•
What is the significance of the dependency
ratio? Why is it important for a country to know
this figure?
What type of problems could be created by an
aging population? What types of problems
might be associated with a large percentage of
very young people?
25. The Population Pyramid
• A population pyramid is a graph that shows the age and sex structure
of a population.
• Important because all countries have distinct population structures.
• Their shapes vary according to the % of people in each age group and
the distribution between men and women.
• A Population Pyramid shows the % of the total population in five year
age groups (known as cohorts) beginning with 0-4 years at the bottom,
and ending with the oldest age group at the top.
• The shape of a population pyramid is determined by the crude birth
rate, (number of live births per 1000 people in a given year). Its shape
can be affected by other factors as well (a lower life expectancy, war,
malnutrition, etc)
• A high crude birth rate translates into a relatively high number of
children, and creates a broad pyramid base. If a country has a low
crude birth rate and a large number of older people, the upper
sections of the pyramid are wider.
26. Population Pyramid Shapes
There are four types:
• Early Expanding (ex. Nigeria): very high birth rate, high death
rate, a lower life expectancy
• Expanding (ex. Venezuela): still high birth rate (but more
infants are surviving the first 5 years), lower death rate, a
longer life expectancy, population is growing slowly.
• Stable (ex. France): a lower birth rate, not as big of a slope.
Because of a lower death rate and longer life expectancy,
population typically stays the same, or grows slowly.
• Contracting (ex. Germany): very low birth rate, still a lower
death rate, population as a result is not increasing through
natural growth.
