    How Many is Seven Billion?

    By andyclinton  |  Posted October 27, 2011  |  Montgomery, Alabama
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     andyclinton is a creative member of the iReport community who participated in the project asking people to conceptualize: How much is 7 billion?
    - nsaidi, CNN iReport producer

    Koko the Monkey and Cocky the Rooster teach all the children about the number seven billion!

     

    (I estimated that Cocky was counting at a rate of two counts per second.  At that rate, it would take approximately 111 years to reach seven billion!)
