What do you understand by the word population?
Go for a walk in three different environments:
-across the fields or to the beach
-in a minor street or alley
-along a major high street route
As you walk, look at the different people you see; think about their homes, lifestyles and jobs. Where might they live? You could speculate whether they have a large family or a small one.
Write out as many interpretations of this word as you can think of. Can you find examples, figures, and references to support your ideas?
Other places to start beside your home town? Travel to Wiki or Simple Wiki.
The world population stands at 7 billion. (This must be estimated, right? Who counted? How did they do that?) Watch the BBC version of this moment here.
