In countries who have more babies, they also die a lot more often, so the parents don't usually have a lot of living children.]]> 2023-02-13 19:22:20 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2480150601 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2480155654 I just looked at number of people using the internet. While India and China are almost the same in total population, China had almost 3 times more people using the internet.]]> 2023-02-13 19:25:52 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2480155654 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2480183531 I found it interesting that there was a positive correlation between GDP per capita and age at 1st marriage. I always assumed it to be true, but I had never seen the numbers. Additionally, it is surprising that the average age in 2004 at 1st marriage in Niger was 17.6. Further, the average age of 1st marriage in the US was 20.6 years old in 1965, which is when my grandparents got married.]]> 2023-02-13 19:46:28 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2480183531 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2480242075 I compared energy use per person and Income. Unsurprisingly, energy use went up as income went up, but at a surprisingly slower rate than expected. The rich countries used more energy, but there was not a huge gap. Another very interesting fact is in 2013, the two countries had drastically higher energy use. These countries were Iceland and Qatar. ]]> 2023-02-13 20:33:45 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2480242075 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2482799121 I found it interesting that Brazil has such a high murder rate than any other country, but it also has a lower population than countries like China, India, and the United States. Brazil has almost 25 more thousands of murders than the second highest country, which is India]]> 2023-02-15 01:33:12 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2482799121 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2482826929 I found it interesting to look at income versus child mortality rate. Nigeria was an outlier with 109 child mortality rate in 2021 and only an income of $5010. Giving a comparison to the United States, Nigeria had 102.38 higher child mortality rate and made $60,290 less than the average American. This shocked me, but it also made sense with many children who live in poverty have a higher mortality rate. This usually stems off of having less access to medicines and more exposure to deadly viruses and germs.]]> 2023-02-15 02:03:14 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2482826929 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483343726 I compared the literacy rates (for adults) and babies per woman. I found it interesting that India, especially with its huge population, had such a low literacy rate compared to the smaller places but also had a low amount of children born to each woman. This was interesting to me because I expected poverty-stricken countries to have low literacy rates but a high birth rate. India does not prove this statement correct but Afghanistan, on the map, does. ]]> 2023-02-15 11:48:22 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483343726 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483622800 I found it interesting to compare education rates to GDP per Capita. I did this to see if there is a correlation to an advanced economy to rates of education. There does seem to be a strong correlation between that. In the first world where the education rate is high the economies have a high GDP per Capita. In the third world and other authoritarian countries the GDP per Capita is very low and therefore not near as advanced.]]> 2023-02-15 15:15:05 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483622800 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483766132 I compared the number of newborn deaths to babies per woman. I found it interesting that most of the countries had few newborn deaths and either a lot of babies per woman or not a lot except for a few. India was the biggest outlier with around 2.35 babes per woman and 696k newborn baby deaths. and the closest one to that is Pakistan, which had 3.55 babies per woman and 245k newborn baby deaths. ]]> 2023-02-15 16:47:32 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483766132 https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483887540 I compared breast cancer deaths and exposure to pollution. I was thinking that maybe more exposure to pollution would lead to higher rates of breast cancer deaths. China and India had the highest rates of breast cancer deaths and they were both in the top half of pollution exposure. However, Nepal had the highest pollution rate exposure on the chart, but also one of the lowest breast cancer rates. ]]> 2023-02-15 18:10:22 UTC https://padlet.com/krizankb/jedydyvaaluu/wish/2483887540
