A New Perspective
If we could 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:
- There would be 57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from the Western Hemisphere (North and South) and 8 Africans.
- 51 would be female; 49 would be male
- 70 would be nonwhite; 30 white
- 70 would be non-Christian; 30 Christian
- 50% of the entire world's wealth would be in the hands of 6 people; all 6 would be U.S. citizens
- 80 would live in substandard housing
- 70 would be unable to read
- 50 would suffer from malnutrition
- 1 would be near death; 1 near birth
- 1 would have a college education
- No one would own a computer
Red Petal Earrings
- Thin tagua slices

When one considers our world from such an incredibly compressed perspective, the need for both tolerance and understanding becomes glaringly apparent.
