Top 10 Largest Families in the World\2013

Top 10 Largest Families in the World\2013

 

If your house is a madhouse with too many occupants, imagine the mayhem associated with feeding over 20 children, or even worse, over 50 children.

Managing the impact of a soaring human population, especially with these 10 families, will be one of the most politically fraught issues governments will grapple in coming decades. Although the rate of population growths has slowed down since the 80s, the UN estimates the world’s population has increased by approximately76 million a year this century. This increasingly pushes up greenhouse gas emissions and exacerbates the destruction of wildlife habitats.

1. Vassilyev Family:
