According to the World Health Organization, some 56 Million deaths occur per year, at the current global average. That works out to about 153,400 per day, or A LITTLE MORE THAN 100 PER MINUTE. For every death, there are a little over 2.25 births, or a something just over 350,000 per day. Also, again according to the WHO, the ratio of female births to male births is 1.06-to-1 overall. More than 90% of net global population growth is occurring in Less than Developed Countries, with India and Nigeria leading the percentage parade. Asias contribution to global population growth is approximately 25% greater than that of the combined total of the Western Developed Nations.
