- Population in 2015

Author: Ian Graham, Staff Editor
It does seem a little unrealistic to expect India’s <a href=http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/peo_pop>population</a>, which was estimated at about 1.05 billion in 2003, to grow by 850 million, or 80 percent, in 12 years. To reach 1.9 billion people by 2050 seems more likely, as it would require an average yearly growth of 18 million people, which is more in line with India’s current <a href=http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/peo_pop_gro_rat>population growth rate</a>. <p>At any rate, given that it already had a population of nearly 1.3 billion in July 2003, China will still be first or second in population in 2015 or 2050, even though its annual growth rate is less than half of India’s at 0.6 percent.

" How can the US population drop to only 325,723? Did someone forget like three zeros on the end? "
If you actually read you will see that it says
" DEFINITION: (Thousands) Medium-variant projections "
so no they did not forget the 3 zero's. =)
