World Population Statistics

Posted in Food For Thought, Random by Rob

I looked up some statistics about births and deaths worldwide.

Each and every day:
363,397 people are born
151,338 people die

Every hour:
15,142 births
6,306 deaths

Every minute:
250 births
100 deaths

This works out to about 4 births per second and almost 2 deaths per second worldwide.

  1. Spencer "die for the cause" McCormack says:

    What about stillborn babies? Both born and dead statistic?

    All the baby boomers will be dying soon so that should up the death total. Also all those births are one way or another going to have to die so that will also increase the death total, evening things out for regular Americans like you and me.
