Today in class we talked about the Birth Rate, the birth rate of a country takes in to account the total births per every 1000 women, for a country to have an increase in people the birth rate would have to be 2.1 or higher and less and the population would decrease, this does not take into account deaths and migration. The United States' birth rate is 12.5 per 1000 women which is ranked 158 globally in the CIA fact book.
