China's Growing Population


The population of China is the biggest in the entire world, making up about 20% of the worlds population China has around 1.32 billion people. China's population hit the 1 billion mark in 1982. The majority of China's people live in the fertile, humid lowlands of the east, with about a third of China’s people living along China's coast.  Due to so many people living in China, they are enforcing a One-Child policy which restricts families to only having one child.

The image above shows the whereabouts of the population in the country of China, this is shown through the red coloring, the fact that most of the red is all on the east side of China shows that this is perhaps a more industrialized area. This is true as Shanghai and Hong Kong are located on the east side of China.

The link above shows the population facts about China from 1982.



Here is a Youtube video which says that China has increased it's population by 74 Million people in 10 years, which is an extremely impressive feat. This has enabled China's growth to increase speedily, as it's workforce would now be getting greater and greater. With a greater workforce, a larger amount of goods could be both produced and consumed.
