Ageing Population Visualisation

Thanks to @geoparadigm on Twitter...

A splendid visualisation of an ageing world, produced by insurers GE.
Slide the slider along from left to right to see the changing shape of the population structure...

This links with tonight's Panorama, produced by Joan Bakewell.
It looks at the issue of care for the elderly...

The burden of youth...

That's a neat visualisation. Be good if National Statistics made use of interactive displays like that.
