The Chaos of Population Growth - Academics

1. Contrast the implications for the population of the world…. Under Scenario 1, P = 1.75, so using the Rule of 70 (approximate doubling time formula), Tdouble ≈ 70 / 1.75 = 40 years. The exact formula is Tdouble = log(2) / log(1+r) and here r = 0.0175, so Tdouble = 39.95 or about 40 years. ................
