CHANGES IN PERCENTAGE OF POPULATION IN URBAN AREAS K3ej1
The bird graph illustrate the average of population distributions in a seven different cities all around the world between 1950 and 2007, with the further expectations 2050.
Overall, most cities population is expected to increase incredibly by 2050, while North America and Africa are predicted to have the lowest population growth rate
In 1950 and 2007, the highest number of populations were in: North America, Oceania, Latin America and Europe, with North America taking large share of %64 and% 79 respectively. with roughly similar expectation to increase in population by 2050, where North America and Latin making up about 90%, and less or more of a 80%for Oceania and Europe
However, Africa and Asia showed the lowest population distribution during the specified period. Both started with similar populations rate at only 15% for Africa and 17% for Asia, and both continued to gradually increase by about 7% in the following period. With further projections of increase, over 60% of people will live in urban area by 2050.
