If the Earth's population could be represented by a
village
of exactly 100 people, this is what
it
would look like:
l There would be 57 Asians,
l 21 Europeans, l 14 from the Western Hemisphere, including North and South America plus 8 Africans. l 70 would be non-white; 30 white. l 70 would be non-Christian; 30 Christian. l 50% of the wealth would belong to 6 people and all 6 would be citizens of the United States. l 70 would be unable to read. l 50 would suffer from malnutrition. l 80 would live in sub-standard housing. l Only 1 would have a college education. |
