Your chart does not include any reference to the lowering of infant mortality rates in the last 200 years

The population has grown so fast the last few centuries because 5 out of 7 children no longer die before the age of 6.

Take 2 people and a 0.01 Growth Rate.

In 100 years, there would be 5.4 people.
In 1000 years, there would be 41,918 people. br>In 2000 years, there would be 878,582,410 people.

The human growth rate would have had to have been 0 for 90,000 years. It's just not believable.
