Population momentum and projections
Lots of people will make lots of babies!
Population momentum is the situation where a population continues to grow despite falling birth and fertility rates. The situation is due to the large percentage of the population which are of pre-childbearing and childbearing age. As this 'productive' section of the population grows older they will reproduce causing birth rates to exceed death rate and so natural increase will lead to continued population growth.
Watch the following two videos to fully understand population momentum and projections. Year 12 - you should add to your notes from these.
