English to Chinese: The world population growth during the 20th century General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Cinema, Film, TV, Drama
Source text - English [00:17]"The birth of Sarajevo's babies is 6 million."
[00:20]During the 20th century, the world's population roughly quadrupled from 1.7 to 6.1 billion people.
[00:29]That means for every Australian there are currently about 320 other people in the world.
[00:35]
[00:39]At present around one in five people live in countries that have a relatively high level of economic development.
[00:45]
[00:49]Most of the world's population lives in so-called less developed and least developed countries.
[00:56]
[00:60]After peaking in the 1960's the rate of world population growth has gradually been decreasing.
[01:07]This is most obvious in more developed countries.
[01:10]
[01:14]The population of Russia is actually decreasing.
[01:19]Many other more developed countries are expected to follow suit within the next 50 years unless their numbers are topped up by migration.
[01:28]Elsewhere in the world birthrates are decreasing more slowly and in the least developed countries they remain very high.
[01:35]
[01:38]Even though AIDS have drastically reduced life expectancy in many Southern African countries, fertility rates of over five children per woman mean their populations are still growing.
[01:50]
[01:57]What all this means is that by 2050 the population of the more developed world is expected to increase only slightly, mostly due to immigration.
[02:06]
[02:09]The rest of the world will grow by 50% mainly in Africa and Asia.
[02:13]
[02:29]Despite making up only one fifth of the world's population, more developed nations use the bulk of the world's resources and produce the most waste.
[02:38]
[02:47]This is largely the result of both industrialisation and urbanisation or the concentration of people in towns and cities.
