Summary

A graphical representation of data found in a table on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population#Population_figures" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:World population">World Population - Population Figures</a>

It can clearly be seen that the total world population was steadily rising during the period 1000AD to around 1700AD, though with major disruption from outbreaks of plague (most notably the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Death" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Black Death">Black Death</a> from 1350 AD - 1400 AD). Please <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Talk:Overpopulation#.22Population_growth.22_images" class="extiw" title="w:en:Talk:Overpopulation">see notes</a> regarding the source data and method used for plotting the resulting population dips caused by both the Black Death and later plagues

Population grew at a faster rate from about 1700AD onwards, which coincided with the start of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Revolution" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Industrial Revolution">Industrial Revolution</a> There was then a sharp increase from the beginning of the 20th century followed by a very dramatic acceleration in population growth from the middle of the 20th century (around 1950) onwards.

At over 6.7 billion <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/idb/worldpopinfo.html">(see US Census data)</a> the World Population is approximately 3 times higher in 2009 than it was at approximately 2.3 billion or less<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/worldhis.html">(historic census)</a> in 1939, despite the appalling loss of life in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:World War II">World War II</a> (an upper estimate of which is some <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties#Total_dead" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:World War II casualties">72 million</a>).
