Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are your real-time counters? +
Our counters are approximations based on annual rates from trusted sources like the UN and WHO. We calculate per-second rates from annual totals and extrapolate from January 1st of each year. They are illustrative â not precise scientific measurements â but are grounded in verified data.
Where does your data come from? +
We source data from the United Nations, World Health Organization, World Bank, NASA, NOAA, IMF, Global Forest Watch, and other reputable international organizations. Full source details are on our About page.
Can I use your data for school or research? +
Yes, for educational purposes. However, for academic citation, please always refer to the primary sources (UN, WHO, World Bank, etc.) rather than EarthStats directly, as our data is derived and approximated from those sources.
I found an error in your data â what should I do? +
Thank you! Please email us at [email protected] with details of the statistic you believe is incorrect and a source supporting the correct figure. We review all reports and update data when corrections are warranted.
Is EarthStats free to use? +
Yes, completely free â no sign-up, no paywall, no subscription. EarthStats will always be free to access. We believe access to knowledge about our world should never require payment.
Can I embed your counters on my website? +
We're working on an embed widget! In the meantime, reach out via the contact form and we may be able to help. Please do not scrape our site without permission.
