Lowest birth rates (lowest to highest)
Highest birth rates (Lowest to highest)
Canadas birth rate
-More deaths then births where?
What is the importance of the birth rate
How is low birthrate solved
Replacement is?
Germany- 8.2/1,000
Japan- 8.4/1,000
Portugal- 9.0/1,000
Italy 9.3/1,000
Africa by far…
Niger- 50/1,000
Burundi- 45/1,000
Angola- 44/1,000
Canada- 11/1,000
-In 2017 Japan had less then a mill babies being born
Economic impact of who is there to take care of the older people and fill the empty jobs
Replacement is by immigration
Worldwide war on baby girls
-China has how much more men under 19 by 2020
What is their sex ratio of boys to girls
-What is the natural order
Why is this a concern
-30-40 mill more men under 19 by 2020 (compared to 23 m in Germany, France, Britain combined, 40m in America)
Sex ratio of 120-130 is not uncommon (natural order 103-106 boys : 100 girls)
Next generation is at risk due to more guys to girls (no procreation)
Crime rate increases
