Hilarious Growth rate of 11 countries; in few years India will be at the top of population growth rate in the world
I collected 62 year population data and did my first attempt to create a racing bar chart . By the way the population growth rate in this world is hilarious.

Japan's population will more than halve, from a peak of 128 million in 2017 to less than 53 million by the end of the century, the researchers behind the new Lancet study predict.Japan already has the world's oldest population and the highest rate of people over the age of 100.
This has put strain on the country's workforce and the problem is only expected to worsen.Official forecasts say elderly people will account for more than 35% of the population by 2040.This, combined with a low fertility rate of just 1.4 births per woman, means that the number of people able to fill jobs in the country is in decline.
Countries need a fertility rate of about 2.1 births to maintain existing population sizes.While Japan has traditionally been wary of immigration, it has eased rules in recent years in a bid to deal with the issue.However, there have been widespread reports of exploitation of migrant workers.
The results of the 2020 census are a warning sign that America is on a course for slow population growth.Economists broadly agree that population growth fuels economic growth in wealthy countries. But the recently released census figures show the US population was 331.5 million people, an increase of just 7.4 percent between 2010 and 2020 — the lowest rate since the 1930s. Projections suggest that, unless current trends change, those numbers could continue to diminish dramatically over the next two to three decades, with the population growing by just 78 million by 2060.

Some parts of the US are already beginning to experience some of the downsides of population slowdown or decline: Shrinking tax bases in rural areas have made it harder for government budgets to support essential services, such as infrastructure and public schools. As population growth slows, the pressure for cuts will likely grow. Meanwhile, the existing population will continue to age; by 2030, the Census Bureau estimates that one in five US residents will be of retirement age.
“Slow population growth, at least in the United States and a lot of other developed countries, will become a dire age dependency problem,” William Frey, a senior fellow at the Brooking Institution’s metropolitan policy program, said. “It puts a big strain on the rest of the population.”
India is set to outperform China as the world's most crowded country by 2027, as indicated by ongoing United Nations projections. The nation presently has 1.37 billion individuals - second just to China's 1.4 billion - and is relied upon to add one more 230 million by 2050, a considerable lot of whom will be among the world's least fortunate.
State leader Narendra Modi might have had those realities as a primary concern recently when he approached Indians to have little families. However those disturbing measurements conceal a more intricate reality, and a few positive patterns, specialists say.
As in a significant part of the remainder of the world, India's development rate has been easing back for the beyond couple of many years, a downfall ascribed to expanding mitigation of neediness; rising schooling levels, particularly among ladies; and developing urbanization. Most Indian states are relied upon to hit substitution richness levels of 2.1 youngsters per lady by 2021. Ripeness rate has proactively declined to a normal of 2.2 in 2017, as indicated by an administration study of 22 significant states, while metropolitan richness has previously fallen beneath substitution level, to 1.7 youngsters per lady. The substitution richness level alludes to the quantity of kids conceived per lady with the goal that one age precisely replaces the first one.
All things considered, nine of those states have fruitfulness rates above substitution levels, including five of the least fortunate. What's more, specialists say that India actually has an enormous neglected need for present day prophylactic techniques and depends too vigorously on disinfecting ladies. The United Nations assesses that in excess of 10 million Indian ladies a year have accidental pregnancies.
As indicated by current gauges, India's populace will top in the mid 2060s at 1.7 billion, coming down on the climate and regular assets and helping ozone harming substance discharges - however the normal Indian creates a small amount of the planet-warming outflows delivered by the normal American or European. The greater part of India's populace increment by mid-century will be because of segment energy, implying that even as ripeness rates fall underneath substitution levels, the enormous quantities of youngsters will keep on supporting the nation's populace, says P. Arokiasamy, top of the Department of Development Studies at the Indian Institute of Population Sciences in Mumbai.
