I heard a report yesterday that one-sixth (1/6) of the world's population, that's one billion people (1,000,000,000), are starving. You can read the story at Cash-Strapped Food Agency Struggles To Feed Poor or listen to it.
(can't wait to see what kinds of ads get thrown up in response to this by the auto-ad generator)
For reasons unknown to me and in ways similar to my experience re The Village: One Minute of Peace and Stonewall's Findings: Darfur, One Minute of Peace, and More...much, much more, my mind started traversing this information. In my case, from an ecological and evolution dynamics perspective.
What does it mean that 1/6th of the world's population, the recognizably bottom of the economy, are starving? To death?
