The Earth in Miniature

• If we could reduce the population of the Earth
  to a small village of exactly 100 inhabitants,
  maintaining the proportions existing now, it
  would be something like

3

• 57 Asian,    21 European,    14 American,   8
  African,

4

• 52 women,
• 48 men,
• 70 would not be white,
• 30 would be white,
• 70 non-Christians,
• 30 Christians,
• 89 heterosexual,
• 11 homosexuals.

5

• 6 people would have 50 of the wealth and
  all      6 would be U.S.A. citizens. From the
  100 people, 48 would live in sub-human
  conditions.

6

• 20 would be unable to read
• 50 suffering from malnutrition
• Only 3 (yes, only 3) would have universitary
  education.

7

• In this village, 15 people have Internet access.
  All this shows the need for understanding,
  helping, and invest in Education.

8

• Now think If you wake up this morning with more
  health than diseases, you have more luck than
  millions of people who did not survive this week.

9

• If you've never experienced the dangers of war,
  the loneliness of being arrested, the agony of
  being tortured, or the distress of hunger, you
  are better than 800 million people.

• If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes
  in the closet, a roof,   a decent place to
  sleep, you are richer than 65 the world's
  population.

• If you have money in the bank, in your wallet,
  and some coins in hand, you are among the
  richest 10 of the World.
