Figure 2 Annual change in number of deaths, for broad age groups and all ages combined, 1970–2023
s’il est facile d’interpréter l’événement de 2020-22, en revanche pour celui de 1994-95, je n’avais pas imaginé la cause…
Annual change is defined as the difference between the number of deaths in the current year and the preceding year. The y-axis scales differ by age group. The large change in the age groups 5–14 years and 15–39 years between 1994 and 1995 was due to deaths during the Rwandan genocide. The large change in the age groups 15–39 years, 40–59 years, and ≥60 years between 2020 and 2022 was due to deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The number of female deaths (left side) can be compared to male deaths (right side) by age group for four distinct years. The x-axis scales differ by year. Different colours show GBD super-regions. GBD=Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study.
En cherchant un peu les explications de la grosse différence entre filles et garçons dans la mortalité infantile, je trouve que les morts de fille seraient en fait déclarées comme de fausses couches, ou que les avortements seraient plus important dans leur cas... je vois des différence autour de 1 million au XXe, ça fait beaucoup quand même...

Évolution de la population mondiale - Démographie
J’avais raté la sortie de la révision 2015 du « World Population Prospect » des Nations unies. Ils ont ajusté les prévisions, et du coup, j’en ai profité pour mettre à jour et corriger un ensemble de graphiques qui seront sans doute une bonne #ressource_pédagogique pour les profs (et les élèves et tout le monde en fait !). C’est - encore une fois - très conventionnel mais utile. En anglais pour le moment, mais la version française arrive bientôt.
La représentation sur le temps long montre les deux extrémités de la « transition globale » (lente évolution jusqu’au XIXe siècle, puis très forte accélération de la dynamique démographique et enfin, ce qui semble être une probable évolution, le ralentissement, le tassement de la croissance à partir de 2050).
Il faudra sans doute affiner et détailler ce qui se cache sous cette « marche d’escalier » et analyser les évolutions secondaires qui n’apparaissent pas dans ces courbes mais qui sont bien réelles.
Les colonnes à gauche représentent l’évolution de la population par continent « relativement » les uns par rapport aux autres (le poids relatif de chacun plutôt que le volume de population).
gros #débat au sein de @visionscarto sur le sens de ce graphique, le choix de l’échelle, l’#histoire de la démographie mondiale…
Gros débat très fructueux d’ailleurs dont on reparlera. J’ai juste oublié de préciser que la courbe rouge dans ce graphique représente en réalité la vision considérée comme propbable dans les années 1960 à 1970 (c’était la fameuse hypothèse catastrophiste, la « bombe » démographique). AUjourd’hui, compte tenu des évolutions [ralenties] des taux de fécondité dans de nombreux pays où il était traditionnellement fort,cette hypoyhèse est devenue caduque. Toutefois, les Nations unies continuent de publier, dans leur liste de scénarios, une variante [haute] pour laquelle ils imaginent que chaque foyer aient en moyenne 0,5 enfant en plus de ceux prévus dans la variante moyenne et qui aboutit théoriquement à une très forte croissance démographique, mais à la quelle personne, aujourd’hui, ne croit vraiment être une hypothèse plausible.
The French are incredibly fertile, gender equality plays major factor

France’s big secret: Don’t make having children financially or socially punitive for women.
On Friday the Central Statistical bureau of Latvia announced that in the beginning of the May the population in Latvia dropped below 2 mill. It was 1 997 500 inhabitants in Latvia in the May of 2014. The analysts argue that it is both due to depopulation and emigration.
Although in the last months the birth rate has been growing, there are still more people dying. The second reason - emigration - was also caused by economic situation during the financial crisis. Latvia has now recovered from crisis but people still are emigrating - many of them to Norway.
TVNET :: Latvijā - Iedzīvotāju skaits Latvijā noslīdējis zem diviem miljoniem

2014.gadā iedzīvotāju skaits Latvijā turpina samazināties - maija sākumā valstī dzīvoja 1 997 500 iedzīvotāju. Iedzīvotāju skaits samazinās gan dabiskā pieauguma (mirušo skaita pārsvars pār dzimušo skaitu), gan migrācijas dēļ.
« Šāda iedzīvotāju skaita samazināšanās ir satraucoša, » šodien preses konferencē atzina CSP priekšniece Aija Žīgure. Lai gan dzimstība uzlabojas, diemžēl mirstība saglabājas augstāka, līdz ar to dabiskais pieaugums joprojām ir negatīvs, viņa sacīja.

The number of population is decreasing – the mark has dropped below 2 million | Latvijas statistika
▻http://www.csb.gov.lv/en/notikumi/number-population-decreasing-mark-has-dropped-below-2-million-39639.html
At the beginning of 2014 the number of population in Latvia comprised 2 million 1468, a drop of 22.4 thousand persons compared to the previous year. Compared to 1.03 % in 2012, the population decrease in 2013 comprised 1.10 %. Of total population 917.1 thsd or 45.8% were males and 1084.4 thsd (54.2%) – females.
In 2014 the number of population in Latvia continues to reduce – at the beginning of May there were 1 million 997.5 thousand persons living in Latvia. The number of population is decreasing both due to natural increase (the number of deaths prevails the number of births), and due to migration.
