Keanumoreira Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 If the world were a village, there would be: 59 Asians14 Africans12 Europeans14 Americans (North, south, and central)1 from the South Pacific 49 of them would be women,The other 51 would be men30 would be children70 would be adults (For the rules I didn't include religion; you'll need to look that up yourself) 15 of the 70 adults can't readonly one of them has a college degreeOf all the wealth, six people would own 59%20 people consume 80% of the villages total energy80 people share the remaining 20% In one year, one villager will dieIn one year, two babies will be bornOnly seven people have access to a computer and or not counting the internet 20 people are undernurished1 is dying of starvation15 people are overweight So as you can see, we as individuals, all possessing a computer as the lucky seven opposed to the unlucky ninty three, should be grateful for all it is that we have. We take for granted everyday over the simple things that not even a child in other parts of the world, even in the richest, can afford to have. If the world were a village of 100, we'd see just how thankful we should be. Just a little interesting thing I learned in math class today, thought it would help make other people see our world in a different light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ub3rman123 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Well, to be honest, Australians would probably get a leg or so. Ah-hah! Did the math. According to the most recent census from Australia.. 0.3172770480064584 of a person in there is Australian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
