Look at the graph on the next slide to find the answers to the questions on your information sheet
Graphing Activity Answers:
1. How many countries are listed on this graph? 8 countries
2. What is the time scale? 2008 years 3. Look at Italy…when was it a super power and what is
its position now? Italy was a super power in 1 AD then again 1500 – 1800 AD.
4. Look at …. Britain when did it really start to become a huge economic power?1820s
5. What do you think happened between 1700 and 1820 to make the huge change in Britain’s fortunes? Industrial Revolution

8. What is the current World GDP levels of USA compared to China? About equal on 18%
9. Choose two countries that get the prize for the most spectacular rise and fall in their global economic influence. Justify your response through the use of percentage changes. China & India
10. Name 5 countries that are not named (New Zealand is one) and explain where they fit in the graph. They fit in the 40% gap at the top of the graph .This means that the combined economies of the rest of the world = 40% of the total world economy. The eight listed countries are totally dominant.
China is rapidly urbanising discuss… In the next 10 - 15 years …… 350 million people will be added to China’s urban population. That’s
three times the amount of rural Chinese (103 million) that have migrated to the cities since 1990
1 million kilometres of new road and 28,000 kilometres of metro rail will be laid
170 mass-transit systems will be built - twice the number that all of Europe has today
40 billion square metres of floor space will be built to construct five million buildings - the equivalent of building two Chicago's every year
97 new airports will be built (one every 40 days!) and one in every ten planes assembled by Boeing and Airbus will be delivered to China
Energy demand will more than double from 60 quadrillion British thermal units (QBTUs) to between 123 QBTUs and 142 QBTUs – equivalent to 25% of the world’s total energy demand today
Dairy in China?
The diet of the urbanised Chinese is becoming more Westernised.As china becomes wealthier: the average calorie intake of its
population increases The demand for western
convenience food increases = ice-cream , yoghurt, fast food, baby milk formula
Dairying : theeconomic link between Selwyn & China
Google Earth image of an area just West of Rollesten.How can you tell there is dairy farming here?
The centre pivot irrigators are usually a good sign this is a dairying district.
A close up shows more signs this is a dairy farm. How can you tell?
Access road and turning circle for the milk tanker. Milking shed. Effluent pond.

We have heaps of water. The Chinese consumers want products that we can make using our water resourcesThe smart thing for us to do is to export water but not as water ……as processed consumer products for the urban population in China
