You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The tables below give information about the world population and distribution in 1950 and 2000, with an estimate of the situation in 2050. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. You should write at least 150 words.

The first

table

illustrates the

world

population

for 1950–2000 and makes a prediction of how it will be in 2050. The second

table

shows the

distribution

of the

world

population

in 1950–2000 by region and makes a prediction of how it will be in 2050.

Firstly

, the first

table

estimates that the

world

population

in 2050 will be 9.0 billion, which means an increase from 2000 by 150%. Having a massive percentage increase in

population

like

this

may have an effect on the

distribution

in various regions.

Secondly

, the later

table

shows that Asia had the highest percentage of

1950 and 2000.

Therefore

, the

table

estimates that it will

also

have the highest

population

distribution

in 2050.

On the other hand

, Oceania had the lowest

population

in 1950 and 2000, so it will
