We just learned about if the world is 100 people. I learn some really sad but amazing facts. People all from all over the world. 60 people are from Asia, 15 people are from Africa, 11 from Europe, 8 from South America, 5 from the U.S. + Canada, and 1 from Australia. There are also a lot of different languages. I was really sad to hear that 700 dollars a year (2 dollars a day) with that you can't have a home or go out to eat or anything that we do today in everyday life. Also what made me upset was when I found out that there was only 10% of rich people. The others can't pay for what they need. It really upset me that a lot of people don't have what they need to survive. I think a cool fact is there is 31 sheep, 23 cows, bulls, and oxen, 15 pigs, 3 camels, 2 horses, and 700 chickens! I think that is so cool! 700 chickens really suprised me! I also really sad because 14% of the people can't read when they are old enough to read. Also are popultion is incresing more every year so we will have to many people and not a lot of food and water for people. Right now we live good and long lives but I think they are going to get shorter as we have less and less of the things we need an more air poulition. It makes me really sad that every 30 seconds someone dies from mallariea. I think I am so lucky that we have medicen! It was really amazing to see what the world was like with 100 people!
