World population growth
The population of the world

Finding the correct size of world human population for distant past times is a difficult task. The American team of Michael Kremer (MIT), using their own calculations and the work of other researchers, have produced an overview of world population growth going back to a million years ago.
The data for the visualization was supported by recent census results and qualified projections of the future evolution of the Earth's human population.
Follow the chronology timeline to see how the world's population has grown.
