Overpopulation viruses
threaten
US
Poor
nutrition leads to mutations that create more dangerous forms of the
influenza virus and may contribute to newly virulent outbreaks of viral
epidemics ranging from the common cold to AIDS, Ebola fever
and SARS.
Populations not well-fed
will infect
us. These more virulent
viral strains will affect the healthy populations as well as the
malnutritioned.
Pollution in Africa is swept clean across the
Atlantic and can be detected in South
America.
The oxygen we're breathing now is, to a
great extent, emitted by tropical forests in Brazil. The same tropical
forests that are being cut
down by an area the size of Rhode Island - every day! Cut down to provide grazing for only a few
years - after which the land will become too sterile and eroded for future
grazing.
The world's 1.3 billion women between the ages of 15 and 45
experienced a total of more than 1.2 billion pregnancies, 1995-2000.
Over the next decade, 600 million girls will become adolescents.
It will be 250 million MORE girl
adolescents per decade than it should be (thanks to the 25
million per year unintended girl pregnancies, above). http://www.globalhealth.org/news/article/2319 |
In the next 50 years, if nothing is done about
it, there will be 3 - 6 billion more people
on this earth, not in
the USA, Europe or Russia, but in
Asia
& Oceania, South America and Africa (Africa has the highest rate of growth, 5
children per family) (Industrial
countries' population is now decreasing)
Between 1995 and 2000, more
than
300 million, one
quarter of the world's pregnancies were unintended.
Contributing to this was a
steep
drop in worldwide funds from the United States
(resulting in the deaths of
nearly 700,000 women between 1995 and 2000).
While more than one-third died from problems associated with
pregnancy, labor and delivery, the majority - over
400,000 - died as a result of complications resulting from abortions
carried out in unsafe, unsanitary and often illegal conditions.
"Most of these unintended pregnancies and needless deaths could have
been prevented had basic reproductive health services been made available
to these women.
Providing women with the means to plan, prevent or space their next
pregnancy can be done with modest resources.
Where women have little or no access to simple and reliable methods of
contraception, an unintended pregnancy often leads
to the decision to have an abortion.
Disease, Pollution,
lack of essential resources and raw material will threaten our
children, for sure, if nothing is done about it now. So what can we do
about it? A Solution
This issue makes Global Warming
and Nuclear/Chemical Attack pale into relative insignificance
especially when measuring the direct saving (in lives, suffering and
FUTURE THREATS
- Family
Planning can make per $ spent.
Dont think our children will not eventually be affected by a
possible "LAST REVOLUTION" - A World Revolution
of the 87% of the world's population who
will be in poverty by 2050 (and will have little to lose
by terrorizing us).
Write
and email your government representative. Tell them to have UNFPA
funded IMMEDIATLEY.

1/3 of the population of
Botswana has AIDS. Don't think
they'll suffer alone, don't think it wont
find its way back here again
