Religions and babies | Hans Rosling

I honestly loved the shots of the audience, showing how all these people with clearly different backgrouds were listening to him with such interest

[Urza]

This guy and his team deserves serious credit for the infographs and how easy they make the complex subject understandable from a statistical perspective.

"and then I will die" and so you did Hans. May we never forget the wisdom you shared.

[dedbaka]

Hans: "Everyone understands that there is a limit to how many people can live on earth."

Thanos: "Got it."

Got to love the total denial of laser pointer technology!

Japan has always been an exception, but in truth, we don’t really follow any religion. We just say we are Buddhists because we follow the buddhist funeral rituals. But we easily move to Christianity during Christmas events and marriage. Most of us don’t know what religion is.
Also to add, we might be the only country that wants more children, not less. But we will never see this increase, because conditions are so bad for women. Low profit, few nursing facilities available, and discrimination that still lingers for women who try to both work and have babies in their lives.

"We have reached Peak Child"

I just checked. He died last year to leave a gap for a new baby.

That women being educated, & having access to birth control choices, has been substantively proven, repeatedly, over time. Quality of life improves. Take away choice, corrupt or make education less or inaccessible, and all the worst outcomes return.

His book “Factfulness” seriously made me change my perspective on the world. RIP sir!

[pauloamw]

Genius! I'm sad that he's no longer with us.

[andygolem]

So simple yet so smart. Great use of boxes. Visual aids hit the message home.

[fahimsiddique]

This man is crazy!
The way he taught, just wow!!!
A true intellect...

[MrAlexkyra]

Half the comments: I don't care what the data says, my preconceived notions and anecdotes are more reliable.

[mindvolution]

"You don't have to be rich, to have few children." Absolutely.

Flamily planning 😃

This guy is a great public speaker I really enjoyed this talk. I'm also jealous of his graph animation skills.

Hans: "Everyone understands that there is a limit to how many people can live on earth."

Covid 19: "Got it."

[qazizaahirah]

The software that he is using is cool and I love his accent

[nuclearporcelain]

This guy helps so much with my anxiety!

[wzyhead]

he says family planning but what he means is women's rights eg the right for women's access to contraception
