Population Growth and Control

Today we are going to be talking about population growth and ways that countries have tried to control population growth.

In 2011, world population passed 7 billion people (that's 7,000,000,000).  When I was born there were less than 5 billion people.  To learn more about where you fall in that population, check out 7 Billion & Me.

China and India are the two countries with the highest populations in the world, accounting for over 2 billion people.  I'd like you to gather some data about the two countries as a starting point for comparison.  Please use the CIA World Factbook as your resource.
