Really nice

Nice stuff!

Might I suggest two small things? I like the population scale being at the top so you don't have to scroll down to the bottom of a graph to see what the numbers are over time. And just personally for me, I think it would be cooler if the numbers were the same scale across all 3 graphs?

The graphs could probably afford to be 'wider' too.
