Human Population Dynamics

Answer: RNI (US) = .5%

013 - Human Population Dynamics

In this video Paul Andersen explores population dynamics of the human population. The population has show exponential growth since the industrial revolution and all countries will eventually move through the demographic transition. If the growth rate is positive the population will grow exponentially and the doubling time can be calculated using the Rule of 70. The crude birth rate and crude death rate can be used to calculate the natural rate of increase. The demographic transition model and age-structure diagrams can be used to predict future populations.

I really appreciate your work. I don't know what was your inspiration to make these amazing educational videos, but THEY ARE REALLY HELPFUL. Thank you so much for doing this. Keep up the good work. I watched these videos for Toefl exam, I need to have a basic knowledge for a listening part lol.

For those who are wondering why he divides by ten, it is because he simplified the process. After subtracting CDR FROM CBR, you divide by 1000 (for every 1000 people) and then multiply by 100 to express as a percent, thus, it is simplified by converting 100/1000 as dividing by 10.

You saved my grade! Thank you so much!!!!

[AliYashkun]

Yes, dear professor! That was helpful.

Hello teacher Anderson, thanks for upload video and hope u will add Thai sub again, your Thai student is here, thank you so much.

[sabrinawang]

Cramming before my apes test tomorrow. Thank you Mr.Bozeman for these vids

[srikanth]

Its fully easy to catch up. I enjoyed it a lot. Its reallt holistic.

[ramyraad]

can you please post the sources of the information

[johnmastroligulano]

I would agree but for the fact that over time you should have a value for increase/decrease of death/birth as it might have a cumulative or see saw effect. Not sure if I explained that correctly it's like saying if a population starts to have far more deaths or births you would see the results up front but then they would have an opposite effect at a quantifiable time in the future is that better I hope so. Good video though I would stick to the actual numbers instead of trying to adjust them based on technology that is a selective way of framing a narrative akin to them adjusting temperatures based on what scientists "think but cannot recreate/replicate". If you want to add a technical factor like technology you have to realize that actual wealth or disparity of wealth has far more of a literal effect though I realize that many on a perch would like to discount this factor for obvious reasons.

okay, so say i started with 8 folk. How many years would it take to reach the present world population of 7 billion? 2000? 4000?

[firstnamenonapplicable]

I got an A on my final by using your videos

[TheAleksandros]

well if the world has right now 1.2% RNI, means there will be over 14 billion people in the world in 2072 (just 58 yeras)

Hi Mr. Anderson, Do you happen to have a copy of the completed graphic at the 1:51 mark? It is very helpful.

For those of you who are _EXTREMELY_ interested in Swedish historical death rates, the top in the chart is famine and alot of dysentry. So it was a party, for sure. The other two peaks are also famine coinciding with wars with Russia again and again... and again... and again.

What this tells us scientifically (not) is that if you're having great famine in your country, the death rate can be mitigated by going to war with Russia. :-)
(No, we lost Finland in the war of 1809. If the chart does not account for that fact, the last high peak would probably be higher)

Mr. Anderson, Great Videos! Here, though, I must comment on a basic premise of this video: Your discussions follows a line of thought that people reproduce based upon thinking about maintaining the basic population. Pakistani families do not have 5 children because they want to maintain the population of their nation. Nor do Americans decide to have fewer children based upon their perceived security. Instead, people have more or fewer children due to their culture. They do what they are told- via religious leaders, newspapers, Hollywood movies, and even from YouTube. Now, here is the homework question: Who owns those outlets of information (thought-influence leading to thought-control) and why do they want Americans and Europeans to have fewer children and pagan nations to have more?

It is a population pyramid, not an age structure diagram (I refuse to call it that.) Otherwise, very well done.

[geoffreycatania]

I am sorry to say that this video seems rushed. Many of your videos are fantastic but I could not finish this one and I will not be able to recommend it or assign it to my students.

[TheAleksandros]

lol.. this guy knows everything about anything...

[TheElina]

Yeah I'm an 18 year old female in Sweden haha
