population

http://www.unfpa.org/swp/2007/multimedia/index.html

In my economics classes, we've been talking a lot about how population growth affects the world. This project, part of the United Nations Population Fund, combines music, captions and photographs in a 2 minute presentation to show the pros and cons and plug the UN's book (State of World Population 2007) to viewers.

I thought many of the pictures were powerful and it was interesting to see that the entire piece ran exactly 2 minutes, which is around the length we all agreed wasn't too long or too short.
