(SETAC, 1990)

This website was initiated in March of 1996. At that time, the world population was 5.7 billion people.
The current population has now increased by more than two times the size of the U.S. population, or more than 700 million people.
Today's population according to the U.S. Census Bureau can be found here: Pop Clock
