Some interesting statistics
>From the local Audubon newsletter....taken from "Unheard Voices"
If we could, at this time, shrink the Earth's population to a
village of
precisely 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same,
it
would look like this.
57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from the Western Hemisphere (North
and
South)
and 8 Africans
70 would be non-white, 30 white
70 non-Christian, 30 Christian
50% of the entire world wealth would be in the hands of only 6
people.
All 6
would be citizens of the U.S.
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
80 would live in sub-standard housing
only 1 would have a college education
