Based on historical data, the most accurate statement is:
Steel consumption was around 100 million and the population was beginning to grow.
In 1850, global steel consumption was relatively low compared to modern standards, and it was still in the early stages of industrialization, which contributed to a gradual increase in population. The options regarding population sizes of 100 billion are incorrect, as that number far exceeds the actual global population at the time.
