As the Industrial Revolution （工业革命） began, rapid-population growth appeared. Human population increased over 5 billion in the next 200 years. Today, we've had over 8 billion.people in the world. Take India for example. In 1947, at the time of in independence, its population was about 340 million. However, the number doubled between 1947 and 1981. By 2001, it was over one billion. According to the UN, India has over 1.4 billion people in 2023 and has surpassed （超过） China to become the country with the largest population in the world.
