Whatâs your number? Find your place among the 7 billion

"Sometime in the next few days or weeks, the global population will balloon to 7 billion.

For those fearful of becoming just another number, lost in the grand shuffle of human population, the BBC has launched â7 billion people and you: Whatâs your number?â"

Because who the hell wants to be #3,265,427,811 when you can be #3,265,426,014.
