Children in Africa
Did you know that more than 50% of Africa's population is under the age of twenty-five. This is caused because the population is growing so fast and so more than half of their population is young adults, teenagers, and children. It is estimated that by 2050 Africa's population will be more than double what it is now at 2.3 billion. Not to say that Africa doesn't have the space to hold that many people, with 30 million square miles across the entire continent. That really isn't that crowded considering that China's total amount of land is 3.7 million square miles and has 1.3 million people.

Wow this is very interesting! it is hard to believe that so many people are so young. first things first the population in say 3000 will be extremely high! After population increases to that point where will the people end up going? Also it's interesting to see the comparison of china to africa. I never realized how similar in population the two were.
