100 People A World Portrait

The World as 100 People

I came beyond this infographic again and felt compelled to observe out more nigh its origin.

The milestone of the earth reaching 7 billion people inspired a grouping of people to further previous research nearly the people in our world. They accept spent the last five years asking students to simplify circuitous statistics by introducing the states to the people that represent their part of the earth. Using media this project is helping to illustrate information near where people come from but too the challenges people face. The projection focuses a lens on ten areas of critical global concern that affect us all: water, food, transportation, health, economy, education, free energy, shelter, war and waste.

If the Globe were 100 P EOPLE:

fifty would be female
50 would exist male
26 would be children
In that location would be 74 adults,
8 of whom would be 65 and older

There would be:
60 Asians
xv Africans
xiv people from the Americas
xi Europeans

33 Christians
22 Muslims
fourteen Hindus
7 Buddhists
12 people who practice other religions
12 people who would not be aligned with a religion

12 would speak Chinese
five would speak Spanish
5 would speak English
3 would speak Standard arabic
3 would speak Hindi
3 would speak Bengali
3 would speak Portuguese
ii would speak Russian
2 would speak Japanese
62 would speak other languages

83 would be able to read and write; 17 would not

7 would have a college degree
22 would own or share a computer

77 people would have a place to shelter them
from the air current and the rain, but 23 would non

1 would be dying of starvation
fifteen would be undernourished
21 would be overweight

87 would take access to rubber drinking water
thirteen people would have no clean, rubber water to drink

The harsh reality is that today there are still people who are dying of starvation or are undernourished; that so many do not have a place to shelter them; and that clean and safe water to drink remains such a trouble. How tin we change this? How tin engineering science and social media help to bring people together to solve this?

1 man interviewed said "All the people in the world need to get together and speak with the same rima oris. If people learn to speak the same language, in the aforementioned way. They could care about each other and there wouldn't exist and then many bug." Video and images are a starting signal.
