Nevermind...found this on the internet...must be true. 
According to the World Health Organization, some 56 Million deaths occur per year, at the current global average. That works out to about 153,400 per day, or a little more than 100 per minute. For every death, there are a little over 2.25 births, or a something just over 350,000 per day.
Also, again according to the WHO, the ratio of female births to male births is 1.06-to-1 overall. More than 90% of net global population growth is occurring in "Less than Developed Countries", with India and Nigeria leading the percentage parade. Asia's contribution to global population growth is approximately 25% greater than that of the combined total of the Western Developed Nations.

That's called living the dream.

Um, yes.
That's why the world population increases. When the death rate exceeds the birth rate, the population decreases.
