Two New Canadas Every Year: 6,621,660,975 people and counting

Did you know, that according the the US Census Bureau, the world population increased by 77 million people last year? That is like having two new Canadas every year. Or an extra USA every four years!
 
In the couple of minutes that it took to write this, the world population went up by over 2000 people.
 
Something else to ponder:
