See global change from 1800 to 2007 in Gapminder World

For the first time you can now visualize more than 200 years of data on
health and income for almost all countries. In Gapminder World you can now
see the change in life expectancy and income per person over the last two
centuries. We also display data on CO2-emissions since 1820. (The graphs
takes a few seconds to load).

   - Life expectancy and Income per person (from
1800)<http://gapminderfoundation.createsend5.com/t/r/l/jhhthd/l/r>
   - CO2-emissions (from
1820)<http://gapminderfoundation.createsend5.com/t/r/l/jhhthd/l/y>

We have compiled these data series using information from different sources,
including historians for the period before 1900. Every step of the
compilation is documented<http://gapminderfoundation.createsend5.com/t/r/l/jhhthd/l/j>

New video lectures with Hans Rosling

Three new videos of lectures by Hans Rosling are now available on our
website. They were recorded before a live audience in a studio at the
Swedish Television (SVT) and cover topics such as the decrease in population
growth, the fast reduction of child mortality in middle income countries and
the emerging patterns of global health, where parts of China are healthier
than the United States.
