World
Half of the world's population has never seen snow, except in photographs.
The claim that half of the world's population has never seen snow, except in photographs, lacks specific evidence confirming this exact statistic. It is supported by estimates suggesting over two billion people, primarily in tropical regions, have likely never experienced snow. The evidence indicates this is plausible but not definitive, given the lack of precise data.

The claim is supported by sources suggesting that over two billion people, often in tropical regions, may never have seen snow.

The evidence is suggestive rather than conclusive.
