  1. Japan By Erin Shull and Cristian Garcia

  2. What is Japan like? Land Area: 377,915 sq km Terrain: Mostly rugged and mountainous Resources: with virtually no energy natural resources, Japan is the world's largest importer of coal and liquefied natural gas, as well as the second largest importer of oil. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ob7UhHBI7Oc

  3. Population Trends over time

  4. Birth Rate: 8.23 Births/ 1000 Population Trends in Birth Rates and Death Rates Death Rate: 9.27 Deaths/ 1000 Population

  5. Demographic Transition Model natural decrease

  6. Life Expectancy, IMR, CMR, MMR, Fertility Total Fertility Rate: 1.39 children born/woman MMR: 5 deaths/100,000 people per year CMR: 2.17 deaths/1,000 people per year IMR: 2.17 deaths/1,000 live births per year Life expectancy: 84.19 years (Third highest in the world)

  7. Population pyramid of Japan

  8. Population policy in Japan? Is it successful? Remember Japan is pro natal! Government Measures: -expansion of child allowance -introduction of childcare leave, -improvement in child care services -"Vision on Children and Child-Rearing" -- eliminating day-care waiting lists and integrating the kindergarten and nursery school systems -Cash allowances of more than $3000 per child (tax break) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nr2ZCZkb_XA

  9. Specific factors affecting Japan's population? 1.39 =2.00?

  10. Projection for the future of Japan’s population National Institute of Population and Social Security research: -projects that the current population of 127 million will be 84 million in five decades' time -working-age population (15–64) will apparently fall by nearly half from today's level of 80 million to 42 million. -50 years from now the population and labor-force will have fallen dramatically -The number of elderly people 65 and over will amount to 40 percent of the population, causing substantial strain on Japan's workers to sustain the non-working population. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apevz6D5sEI
