Yes they are, and if China hadnt adopted its one child per couple policy we would have another billion on top of that. Increasing at 1-2% per year at the moment, it was approximately 2.5 Billion in 1940, UN estimates are the worlds population will be between 5 billion and 14 billion by 2100 - wonder how much that roughest of guesses cost? :huh:

You got a source on this?? Rough maths would lead me to guess closer to 2500 Sq Miles
