A few months ago I asked how much it would cost to end preventable starvation. The answer I got was in the order of an extra $50 billion a year in focussed aid.
That's a drop in the ocean of tears hungry children shed.
There can be no peace when children die and cry from hunger...
Just an increase of 0.4% of global GDP will end human suffering. Yet 99.3% of global GDP isn't enough - the developed would needs 99.7% ...
Yet the Wall St bailout cost $700 billion. That's 14 years worth of funding for war on starvation! In 50 years time that will have evaporated into thin air. So why not fill the world with joy and declare War on starvation!!!
Reducing death from lack of clean water and quality calories isn't rocket science. Neither is it Wall Street child psychological mayhem!
The numbers stack up...
Reduce the number starving by just 12 a day and starvation will be history in 2013.
Here's the song - where's the artist to sing it?
A Dozen a Day is the Message to Send!
