:stoned Reith Lectures 2007 : Bursting at the seams

A Reith Lecture is a lecture in a series of annual radio lectures given by leading figures of the day, commissioned by the BBC and broadcast on BBC Radio 4. They were begun in 1948, in honour of the first Director-General of the BBC, John Reith.

The 2007 Lectures are given by one of the world's foremost economists, Professor Jeffrey Sachs, who explores the challenges faced by living in crowded world and the increasing disparity between the rich and the poor.

A billion people on this planet still have to survive on less than a dollar a day.

You can listen to the lectures here:

Sure - it's a sobering thought in the middle of double anal

Interesting thing about your thread is in "people watching" - it's a kinda clue about human behavior. Notice the "mad views" and numbers of pages on the thread??

When almost 25% of the world's population live off a dollar a day, around 15 million children die of starvation - one every 5 seconds, and children in "industrialized countries" go to bed hungry at night (the US level is 12%) - maybe there is something wrong

An recent example to illustrate the economic stupidity of the human race was - to resolve the world starvation level and clean up infrastructure (water supply etc), - it was estimated to cost around $13 billion. The happens to be the retail market value of the US and EU on perfume sales - ironic

Doubt the Reith Lecture will have much effect on GFY Marc - the most ya can expect is "shit happens" and back to the kids (sorry "webmasters" ) with "would you hit it pics" and perceived drama
