Hans Rosling on global population growth
  http://www.ted.com/talks/hans_rosling_on_global_population_growth.html 
 
Rosling compares the population growth from 1960 to 2010,  and the economical wealth of the developing countries compared to the industrialized countries.  Compared to the population of the developing countries and industrialized countries, there was a big gap between the two( developing countries having the higher population).  The difference between the two were the size of the family, and their wealth.  The bigger the family, the harder it is to survive.  Rosling predicts that the developing countries will soon start to follow in the footsteps of the west, while leaving the poorest of the developing countries growing, and reproducing incontrolably.
