THE WORLD'S NEW YEAR RESOLUTION
by Jonathan Crabtree
Caviar is a modern miracle. It makes celebrity humanitarian Angelina Jolie, look younger.
So should the world undertake plastic surgery? Should we all squash fish eggs into our face?
No... Let's just end starvation. It can be done. It's just that world leaders are distracted.
I Googled "end terrorism" and got 108,000 responses. So is it any wonder the world wastes trillions of dollars hunting down morons with death wishes?
Kyoto is cool too, as "end global warming" scores 49,500 Google responses.
So on behalf of the 781 children who died last hour, I Googled "end starvation".
The bad news is "end starvation" only scored 8,570 responses.
Yet the good news is that ending starvation is MUCH easier than ending terrorism or global warming!
It's cheap too!
The war in Iraq, the coalition of the willing's best attempt yet to "end terrorism" has cost the USA alone $481 billion. Let's round this up to half a trillion dollars all up.
Yet that's nothing compared to the cost of global warming that kicks in at $9 trillion.
If ending starvation was on sale, you'd most likely find it at the Reject Shop or some other discount superstore. You see it's a bargain! Where else can you buy such a noble goal as ending starvation, for a mere $50 billion a year?
The answer is you can't. And as any parent knows (I've got three) there can be no peace when children cry (or die) from hunger...
If just 12 more people every day get clean water and quality calories, starvation will be ended by 2013. Subtract calories from obese countries, add them to starving countries and both survive.
Caviar anyone?
