very interesting -- even just seeing the birth and death rates... did u know someone is born in India every 1.3 seconds?

What a great simulation! It's frightening to "watch" so many human beings (not to mention, tons of CO2) being added to our planet at such a dizzing rate.

yeah, it's pretty great. I clipped this before.
but it's a somewhat screwed representation because they measure per country; which gives a (dis)advantage to big countries/populations as China and such
