Methodology & sources

Counters animate real annual figures per second; they are estimates, not live measurements. Population, births and deaths interpolate from the latest annual growth rate; "today" and "this year" figures reset at your local midnight and January 1 and count up from zero. Environment and economy figures spread the latest annual total evenly across the year.
