Poverty stricken world where is all the finances of our natural resources going ???

 

Each year over 8 million people die because they are simply too poor to stay alive.

                                                          

More than 800 million people go hungry every day.

                                                      

                                                   

The gross domestic product of the poorest 48 nations is less than the wealth of the world's three richest people.
                                              

.
Thirty-thousand children die every day due to hunger and treatable illnesses.
                                              

 
6 million children die every year before their fifth birthday, as a result of malnutrition
                                                 
                                                   

 

To define  moderate poverty as basic subsistence living, is on $1 to $2 a day. All told, nearly half the world's population lives in poverty -- that's 2.8 billion people living on less than two dollars a day.

 

 

With nearly 1.5 billion people still living in absolute poverty, eradication efforts had not succeeded and it remained the most significant challenge facing humankind

 

 

 

 

Yet there is plenty of food in the world for everyone. The problem is that hungry people are trapped in severe poverty. They lack the money to buy enough food to nourish themselves. Being constantly malnourished, they become weaker and often sick. This makes them increasingly less able to work, which then makes them even poorer and hungrier. This downward spiral often continues until death for them and their families.

 

 

 

 

 

 

the only way to look at this suffering with color is through this camera lens, their life is colorless stricken with grief n hunger

 

 

More than 1 billion people lack adequate access to clean drinking water and an estimated 400 million of these are children. Because unclean water yields illness, roughly 443 million school days are missed every year

 

 

 

            In 2011, 165 million children under the age 5 were stunted (reduced rate of growth and development) due to chronic malnutrition

                                                      

 

 

 

Preventable diseases like diarrhea and pneumonia take the lives of 2 million children a year who are too poor to afford proper treatment

 

 

 

As of 2011, 19 million children worldwide remain unvaccinated

Close to half of all people in developing countries suffering at any given time from a health problem caused by water and sanitation deficits

 

 

A quarter of all humans live without electricity — approximately 1.6 billion people

 

 

 

 

 

The World Food Programme says, “The poor are hungry and their hunger traps them in poverty.” Hunger is the number one cause of death in the world, killing more than HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis combined

 

 

 

 

 

Around 27-28 percent of all children in developing countries are estimated to be underweight or stunted. The two regions that account for the bulk of the deficit are South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa

 

 

 

Less than one per cent of what the world spent every year on weapons was needed to put every child

 into school by the year 2000 and yet it didn’t happen.Nearly a billion people entered the 21st century unable to read a book or sign their names

 

 

 

Number of children in the world :2.2 billion

Number in poverty :1 billion (every second child)

Shelter, safe water and health

For the 1.9 billion children from the developing world, there are:

640 million without adequate shelter (1 in 3)

400 million with no access to safe water (1 in 5)

270 million with no access to health services (1 in 7)

Children out of education worldwide :121 million

Survival for children Worldwide

10.6 million died in 2003 before they reached the age of 5 (same as children population in France, Germany, Greece and Italy)

1.4 million die each year from lack of access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation

Health of children Worldwide

2.2 million children die each year because they are not immunized

15 million children orphaned due to HIV/AIDS (similar to the total children population in Germany or United Kingdom)

 

 

 

If all the finances spent on wars n weapons by the developed nations redirected into saving human lives and improving the living conditions of mankind the world will be a place proud for one to be part of.. There will be smile replaced by tears, health replaced by sickness ,and humanity replaced by terrorism and barbaric acts of slaughter and neglegence. If three of the worlds richest people donate their wealth and i say just three it can be utilised to eradicate poverty and substitute health care and basic nessecities like sanitation,water and food for the helpless population growing by numbers year after year around the world. The undeniable fact remains that why do 20 % of the world wealthiest people consume the the worlds finances and drain us of our own natural resources and leave us the majority dying in humiliation .This is the unbound cruelty of the so called educated civilization everytin has become self centric and greed has crippled them to reach out to the ones who deserve a helping hand.

                                                                      

 

 

 Lets bring back smiles give hope nuture life

                                                            

 

 

 

 

Revolt to eradicate poverty now
