Earth Report - Humor

This email was received few days ago. Although, we could not confirm the accuracy of the data or statistics but we liked the idea. Eman and Yasser

If the population of the Earth was reduced to that of a small town with 100 people, it would look something like this:

57 Asians

21 Europeans

14 Americans (northern and southern)

8 Africans

52 women

48 men

70 coloured-skins

30 Caucasians

89 heterosexuals

11 homosexuals

6 people would own 59% of the whole world wealth and all of them will be from the United States of America

80 would have bad living conditions

70 would be uneducated

1 would have a computer

1 (only one) will have higher education

When you look at the world from this point of view, you can see there is a real need for solidarity, understanding, patience and education.

This morning, if you woke up healthy, then you are happier than the 1 million people that will not survive next week.

If there is a food in your fridge, you have shoes and clothes, you have bed and a roof, you are richer then 75% of the people in the world.
