Pickup Line of the Month: You’re One in Seven Billion!
On October 31 of this year — there or thereabouts — the world population will hit 7 billion. 7 billion. If you can’t quite get your head around what a billion looks like, then check out the real-time population counter on the Population Action International website — those spinning numbers kind of bring it home (the world grows by more than 200,000 people a day). And if you want to know where in that 7 billion you fall, you can enter your date of birth and the site will tell you your number.
