Urbanisation is happening faster today than at any time in history. By 2030 nearly 9% of the global population will live in so-called megacities—cities with more than 10m inhabitants. • Click here to subscribe to The Economist on YouTube: http://econ.trib.al/rWl91R7 • In 1950 New York and Tokyo were the only so called megacities; cities with more than 10m inhabitants. • By 1980 these were joined by Mexico City, Sao Paulo and Osaka. • In 2010 there were over 20 megacities spanning almost every continent. • Today, there are 32 megacities. • Urbanisation is happening faster than at any time in human history. Asia accounts for over half of today's megacities. By 2030 nearly 9% of the world's population will live in 41 megacities. But it's in Africa where some of the most rapid urbanisation will take place in the future. • Daily Watch: mind-stretching short films throughout the working week. • For more from Economist Films visit: http://films.economist.com/ • Check out The Economist’s full video catalogue: http://econ.st/20IehQk • Like The Economist on Facebook: / theeconomist • Follow The Economist on Twitter: / theeconomist • Follow us on Instagram: / theeconomist • Follow us on LINE: http://econ.st/1WXkOo6 • Follow us on Medium: / the_economist
