             in Sri Lanka in the 1950s. In one year, the average life of everyone .
             in Sri Lanka was extended by eight years because the number of people .
             dying from malaria suddenly declined.
             This was a great human achievement. But we cut the death rate .
             without cutting the birth rate. Now population is soaring. There were .
             about one billion people living in the world when the Statue of .
