Brazil's Population
|
DMT
Today, 2014, Brazil is in stage five based off of the DMT model and the population pyramids. Brazil's birth rate in 2010 was high but over the next forty years the birth rate is predicted to decrease by a little over one million, and as shown in stage five on the DMT model the birth rate drops. Even though the birth rate is decreasing, the population is increasing in size due to the population of the baby boom growing older and living longer. The death rates decrease as time goes on but when you look at 2025 you can begin to forecast that the death rates will pick up due to more people dying than being born. They still live long lives but the population decreases.
