    I always just gave the same answer.......

    One half of the world has no idea how the other half live............... nor do they care...........

    If the World Were a Village of 100 People

    If we could reduce the world’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same, the demographics would look something like this:

    The village would have 60 Asians, 14 Africans, 12 Europeans, 8 Latin Americans, 5 North Americans and 1 Australasian

    51 would be male, 49 would be female

    82 would be non-white; 18 white

    67 would be non-Christian; 33 would be Christian

    80 would live in substandard housing

    67 would be unable to read

    50 would be malnourished and 1 dying of starvation

    33 would be without access to a safe water supply

    39 would lack access to improved sanitation

    24 would not have any electricity (And of the 76 that do
    have electricity, most would only use it for light at night.)

    7 people would have access to the Internet

    1 would have a college education

    1 would have HIV

    2 would be near birth; 1 near death

    5 would control 32% of the entire world’s wealth

    33 would be receiving --and attempting to live on-- only 3% of the income of “the village”
