World Demographic Changes by 2025

2012-01-01T12:07:00.004+05:30

•Trends in birth, death, and migration are changing the absolute and relative size of young and old, rural and urban, and ethnic majority and minority populations within and among emerging and established powers.

•

•These demographic reconfigurations will offer social and economic opportunities for some powers and severely challenge established arrangements in others.

World population will grow

•The 31st October is a symbolic date. The world population reached exactly 7 billion on 31 October 2011., which is based on interpolated data from the original 5-year period estimates prepared by the Population Division.

•World population is projected to grow by about 1.2 billion between 2009 and 2025— from 6.8 billion to around 8 billion people.

•

Growth rate will be low

•Although the global population increase is substantial—with concomitant effects on resources—the rate of growth will be slower than it was, down from levels that added 2.4 billion persons between 1980 and today.

A developing country phenomenon

•

Populations Growing, Declining, and
Diversifying—at the Same Time

•

•Demographers project that Asia and Africa will account for most of the population growth out to 2025 while less than 3 percent of the growth will occur in the “West”—Europe, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

•

•In 2025, roughly 16 percent of humanity will live in the West, down from the 18 percent in 2009 and 24 percent in 1980.

•

World Population in 2025, Selected Countries

Europe is the only world region projected to decline in population by 2050.

•In aggregate, the countries of Sub-Saharan Africa are projected to add about 350 million people during the same period, while those in Latin America and the Caribbean will increase by about 100 million.

Declining population in some countries

•Between now and 2025, Russia, Ukraine, Italy, almost all countries in Eastern Europe, and Japan are expected to see their populations decline by several percent. These declines could approach or exceed 10 percent of the current population in those countries.

“Oldest” Vs “youngest” countries

•By 2025, the national population age structures promises to be more varied than ever, and the gap between the youngest and oldest profiles will continue to widen.

•

•The “oldest” countries—those in which people under age 30 form less than one-third of the population—will mark a band across the northern edge of the world map.

•

•In contrast, the “youngest” countries, where the under-30 group represents 60 percent of the population or more, will nearly all be located in Sub-Saharan Africa.

What are the branches of Economics

2011-06-29T08:02:00.000+05:30

Micro and Macro Economics

Economics divided into two parts.
One is Microeconomics and other one is Macroeconomics.
Microeconomics is primarily focused on the actions of individual agents, such as firms and consumers, and how their behavior determines prices and quantities in specific markets
Macroeconomics involve the "sum total of economic activity, dealing with the issues of growth, inflation and unemployment, and with national economic policies relating to these issues" and the effects of government actions on them.

The Word Economy Comes From…

2011-06-29T07:59:00.006+05:30

The Greek word for “one who manages a household.”
Economics is a social science and it is the study of how society manages its scarce resources.
Therefore, Economic is the science of choice – the science that explains the choices that we make and how those choices change as we hope with scarcity.
All economic choices can be summarized in big questions about the goods and services we produce.
These questions are: What? How? When? Where? Who?
What goods and services are produced and in what quantities?
How are goods and services produced?
When are goods and services produced?
Where are goods and services produced?
Who consume the goods and services that are produced?
These five big economic questions give you a sense of what economics about. They tell you about the scope of economics. But they don’t tell you what economics is.

Economic is a social Science?

What is economics?

Economics is a social science that studies how society chooses to allocate its scarce resources, which have alternative uses, to provide goods and services for present and future consumption.

Social Science

Economics is a science, a social science that studies how society chooses.
Sciences are alike in their use of the scientific method, although each science has its own focus.
Social sciences focus on human behavior.
Physical sciences focus on natural phenomenon. Psychology is a social science. Chemistry is a physical science.
Economics is a social science, which means that economists study human behavior confronted by scarcity through application of the scientific method.

What is Economics?

Economics is the study of how people choose to use resources.
Resources include the time and talent people have available, the land, buildings, equipment, and other tools on hand, and the knowledge of how to combine them to create useful products and services.
Important choices involve how much time to devote to work, to school, and to leisure, how many dollars to spend and how many to save, how to combine resources to produce goods and services, and how to vote and shape the level of taxes and the role of government.
Often, people appear to use their resources to improve their well-being.
Well-being includes the satisfaction people gain from the products and services they choose to consume, from their time spent in leisure and with family and community as well as in jobs, and the security and services provided by effective governments.
Sometimes, however, people appear to use their resources in ways that don't improve their well-being.
In short, economics includes the study of labor, land, and investments, of money, income, and production, and of taxes and government expenditures.
Economists seek to measure well-being, to learn how well-being may increase overtime, and to evaluate the well-being of the rich and the poor

What is Arsenic

2011-06-27T14:12:00.003+05:30

Arsenic is a chemical element, the symbol is As, atomic number 33 and relative atomic mass is 74.92. That occurs in many minerals, usually with sulfur and metals and also as a pure elemental crystal.

Arsenic is a metalloid. It can exist in various allotropes, although only the grey form has important use in industry.

The toxicity of arsenic to insects, bacteria and fungi led to its use as a wood preservative. In the 1950s a process of treating wood with chromate copper arsenate (also known as CCA or Tonality) was invented, and for decades this treatment was the most extensive industrial use of arsenic.
