Population pyramids: Powerful predictors of the future - Kim Preshoff 

It's horrifying that you can see the Rwandan genocide in the population pyramid in 1994, starting at 4:19. The population pyramid shrinks very quickly, and then you see a tick in the pyramid. Scary.

I was distracted by the really cool background music.

who’s here because of online classes LMAO

Canada's graph looks like a maple leaf...

Politicians having a complex understanding of science? What a fanciful dream.

crazy to think that russia is still recovering from its 30 million ww2 casualties.

You can actually see the Rwandan genocide of 1994 at 4:20!

POV: your doing your online geography lesson

that background music distracted me the entire time 😂

TED-Ed sure does an amazing job at visual storytelling and educating while at it.

Perfect! In my gcse geography we do about this and it has literally told me everything i need to know, you would think this video has been made just for me!

In the future, the population pyramid will be able to show the happening of this pandemic.

so in the words of bane "success has defeated you."

so comprehensive. this is pretty much everything that I learned about population pyramids at my public health classes at Cal

*Watching this video in 2101. What is a Japanese?*

A hell of a presentation. One of the best I've seen.

COOV VIDEOS TED! I subscribed to you a long time ago! Your explanations are really nice! Keep it up!👌😄

This really helps visualize and help understand what population pyramids are about. Thank you.

Check out this video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vfwt3O4P-Ws.html to know the Most populous cities of the world in 2100 & Future of Population Growth Share your thoughts!

Thanks Kim, Addison, Matt, and TED-ED :).

Great Video, helped me with my geography homework! :)

WHO HERE IS IN AP HUMAN GEOGRAPHYYY

Very useful for including in a course on population.

Very well done in the short time provided!

Classic geography and killer facts all in one!

Thank you ! What a great lecture !!!!!

I watched almost all of your videos and I like them all!!!

Delightning, as always.

We learn this as the first Geography lesson of the 7th grade in VietNam

As of 2015, China has aborted (no pun intended) it's one child policy. What very few people realize is that the one child policy effected or applied, to just 1\3 of the population, those primarily living in eastern China. Also, most Chinese parents were allowed to have a girl first, keep them, and try for a boy during a second pregnancy. Those in rural China, accounting for more than 2/3 of the population had more than one child. Mass female abortions and even infanticide, were rare, by far, the exception not the rule. I do realize that there were atrocities committed in the name of the one child policy; a point I do want to make clear.

ted ed is lowkey the best channel on youtube

Thanks for the subtitles.

wow such an efficient video

Thank you Ted ed. This will help me study for my exam😄

This is a clear demonstration of the impact of the development of countries on life expectancy. There is something to think about and it is clear from whom to take an example.

This was very interesting! The background music had me dancing along to the tune. LOL

If someone is interested in this I can recommend Don't Panic - The Truth About Population with Hans Rosling.

This video is very beauty

Very informative, a good source of general knowledge. You’ve earned urself a new subbie!

This is great help for my Geography Test which is round the corner.

I remember looking that these when I toke ap human geography

You could have included India. It has the fastest growing population after all, thus will be one of the largest burdens in terms of population on earth.

Learned something new and cool : ) thanks!

Hey can you make an update for this video for 2020 and later because of the covid pandemic? Thank you

Amazing presentation

thanks for the nice knowledge.

I ´m so gratefull for this :) I ´m doing my finals in 3 weekd and this is one of the topics ! :)

Nicely done man. Exhibits RCS (Relevance, Coherence, Sequence). Well done

Que video increible que acabo de ver perri , estoy agradecido con mis profes por darme esta oportunidad

Fascinating.

I love the background music!!

Nice data storytelling of population structure! I'm starting to wonder whether migration process could be visualised and what sort of dataframe structure would that be.

Great video destroyed by super annoying "music".

Very helpful video for my upcoming geography exam .... many thanks :))

best 1.. i like the Illustration... nice work

Thank you really helped me on. Geography

WHO HERE IS TAKING APHG? (AP Human Geography) I am!

Alto video master

The vid was very helpful...thankyou

Great video..very helpful..

When your really watching TikTok instead of actually listen to your geography teacher or watching the videooo

POV: You’re here because of your geography teacher...

I studied this one in AP Environment class a month ago in high school.

nice and understandable graphics

The music sounds like the music from Wii.

This paragraph is very important also for tracking likely issues on retirement. As the producing population who pays into the system shrinks compared to the retiree population, issues begin to arise. That's why having a pyramid shape is important.

very informative

This is one of those reminders that life isn't as simple as it seems when your young.

what is the song

4:19 Watch closely...

Very useful. thanks

Very educating.

Everyone: OMG My teacher is making me watch this!.... (instead of watching this....)

Hey from Canada! :)

i love the music!

Excellent video...

Interesting, and given the important of population, why is it practically taboo to talk about it in our media? Even NPR and others, when covering resource issues, will avoid the subject.

It's 2018 now we need a new population pyramid with 76 columns.

Nice intro ,but left out a myriad of outside influences on life. Disease, war , weather are but a few that can change these graphs. But just a straight understanding of growth patterns it does provide information.. Thank you

i just learned this today

4:07 I'm surprised there isn't more of an outrage over this...

I like how they talk about the effects of selective abortion in China, even despite the pyramid being almost symmetrical. They also show the large number of male children born, without showing any number for girls. China's selective abortion is highly exaggerated as an issue, and the government even punishes people for this practice. If you want to make an issue of something, talk about China's number of abortions as a result of the one-child policy. 13 million a year. There are currently talks to relax the one child policy, which will hopefully quell the number of abortions.

life saver!! thanks ❤

demographic transition model really helps clarify.

Immigration and emigration should be taken into account. I'm personally quite happy with the declining population process- I'm sure it ends in either a collapse of capitalism as we know it or a more stable version of it with a smaller, more sustainable population. Either way I'm excited to see what happens in Europe/Japan in the coming decades.

2014:no 2015:no 2016no: 2017:no 2018:no 2019:no 2020:yes!!!

Very interesting!

Teacher:how pyramid was made? This guy: reproduction 😂😂😂😂

Really liked the point where you related the comparatively lower number of males than females in post-reproductive age group to the World Wars

Great video!

Amazing

Ap Human Geography.. Enough said

These pyramids look more like Hershey Kisses to me DEFORMED ONES at that

can you guys please do a updated version of this video?

Loved it

POV: your here because of your geography teacher

its a shame that they didn't add England to this video.

By minute 3:00 I was so distracted by the repetitive tones playing under the narrator's voice that I could no longer concentrate on what was being said. The information is important and well presented, I only wish there was a way to silence the background noise (music).

Great Vide, really helped me with me AP Human Geo. class

That voice... sounds like CGP Grey. Does that mean CGP Grey's name is Kim Preshoff? That is, if that is CGP Grey? Edit: Narrated by Addison Anderson Thanks +aznneozanet
