This area chart visualizes global population growth from 1960 to 2015, using a filled path to show population values over time. The visualization employs D3.js v6 with SVG rendering, using `scaleTime` and `scaleLinear` for axes, the `area` generator with `curveBasis` for smoothing, and `axisBottom`/`axisLeft` for labels. Data comes from a CSV file loaded via `d3.csv`, with population values formatted in billions for the y-axis.
