"Nature connected, multidisciplinary,
education and counseling restores 53 natural senses that help
us improve our thinking, health and relationships."
- Michael J. Cohen
A Global Overview
The Human Conditon
If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of
precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining
the same, it would look something like the following.
There would be:
57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south
8 would be Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
70 would be non-white
30 would be white
70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian
89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual
6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth and
all 6 would be from the United States.
80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
(ONE)1 would be near death;
(ONE)1 would be near birth;
(ONE)1 would have a college education;
(ONE)1 would own computer.
If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back,
a roof overhead and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75%
of this world.
If you woke up this morning with more health than illness,
you are more blessed than the million who will not survive this
week.
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change
in a dish someplace, you are among the top 8% of the world's
wealthy.
If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harassment,
arrest, torture, or death, you are more blessed than three billion
people in the world.
If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness
of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation,
you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.
Now carefully consider The State of Planet
Earth
