with new sources of energy. Even food has changed. What are these changes, and what are their
effects? Until the early 1800s, there were fewer than 1 billion people living on Earth. But since
then, improvements in medicine, agriculture, living conditions, and other areas have produced a
longer life expectancy and a lower death rate. By 1900, Earth’s population had doubled to 2 billion
people. The population had grown to 6 billion people by the year 2000. Today, 4.2 people are
born and 1.8 people die every second, the United States Census Bureau reports. This means that
