The four pie charts present proportions of different age ranges — youth, adults, and seniors — of the residents of Brazil and Germany in 2000, and predictions for 2050.
In the year 2000, both countries had the same percentage of adults (65%). However, Brazil featured more than a double of young people compared to Germany (30% to 13%, respectively). In contrast, the latter country had approximately four times more senior citizens than the former one (22% to 5%), which is a significant difference.
In 2050, Germany is expected to experience a remarkable decrease in the number of adults (from 65% to 48%), whereas Brazil is predicted with a slight grow (from 65% to 70%). The number of young people is likely to stay roughly the same in Germany, but it might be reduced by almost two times in Brazil. When it comes to seniors, they are expected to have a sharp incline in their population, with about a double increase (to 13% in Brazil and 40% in Germany).
Overall, the only population group that is going to grow in numbers in both countries is senior people. Meanwhile, the proportion of young people is likely to decrease in Brazil and Germany, while the change to the distribution of adults depends on the country.
