Part 1: Summary of Issue
This article I picked is about how people expect to have the highest life expectancy like Japan, Hong Kong, Switzerland, Iceland, and Australia. To explain more, Japan is expected to have the highest life expectancy that is 87.1 years versus 81.9 years today. The United States is expected to notice life expectancy increase by six years, from 78.5 years today to 84.5 years in 2050. But on the opposite of the scale, Zambia is now the shortest life expectancy at 39.2 years is expected to increase by 46 percent by 2050 to 57.4 years.
Part 2: Commentary on why this Issue is Important
This article is important because this is telling us that the children below age nine’s population is decreased a little over the same period. This also tells us how the global life expectancy is getting somewhat known. For example, as I said in my summary, Japan is expected to have the highest life expectancy, which is 87.1 years versus 81.9 years today.
Part 3: Acrostic Poem
Population of the people has been estimated to be 9.2 million in the year 2050.
Our scientists predict that the number children under the age of 9 will decrease during 2005-2050.
Population is growing from 5.4 billion today to 7.9 billion in the mid-century
United States population's life expectancy is expected to increase by six years, from 78.5 years today to 84.5 years in 2050.
Largest gains are probably in Zimbabwe, where life expectancy is likely to increase by more than 60 percent from 40 years today to 64.2 years in 2050.
At the opposite end of the scale, life expectancy in Zambia, at this time, the country with the shortest life expectancy (at 39.2 years), is likely to increase by 46 percent by 2050 to 57.4 years.
The U.N. clarify that richness in less developed countries, is estimated to decrease from 2.75 children per woman in 2005-2010 to 2.05 in 2045-2050.
In India and China, the human footprint on the planet is likely to grow as larger numbers of people get higher levels of wealth, while it appears likely that human population will level off mid-century.
Overall, the U.N. predicts that 32 million fewer deaths (between 2005 and 2050) in the 62 most affected countries than it did in its previous population review.
Normally, as quality of life develops, a population uses more resources.

i like the way how you organized your article, by parts. you have lots of facts and information, and its good that you have a bibliography section. the information and facts that you provided was easy to read and understand. BUT can you please change the color of the font to a darker color... its a bit hard to read it.
