Here is some cool information about the world's population.
| It took 12 years for the world's population to grow from 7 billion to 2022's 8 billion. But it will take about 15 years for the population to reach 9 billion. That's because fewer babies are born now. In 50 years，this can slow the growth of the world's population. |
| The day on which the world's population grows by one billion is important. The United Nations chooses a baby born on that day as the symbolic（象征的）baby. For example，the world's population reached 8 billion on November 15， 2022. Vinice Mabansag was born on that day and she became the symbolic 8 billionth baby. |
| More boys than girls are born around the world. There are 106 baby boys born for every 100 baby girls. There are 1. 8 billion people between the ages of 10 and 24. That's the largest number ever（有史以来）. |
