Favorite book - Erina


~If the world were a village of 100 people Ⅱ~
Do you remember “if the world were a village of 100 people”? I’m a student in volunteer course and we use it as a text. This origins was “State of the Village Report”, written by Donella H.Meadows, and it was not 100 people. It was “If the world were a village of 1000 people”. She reported as a column in a American’s newspaper. One professor in Stanford University shifted from 1000people to 100 people, and mailed it his friends. It hover on an internet and many people added their thinking.
“Think global, act local”. I was taught it. The world is a big village. If one of your neighbors were nearly die, would you neglect? Long ago, we had lived helping each other. Now it has been missing. Please don’t think only yourself or your gains. Please look your surrounding and do something for them if they are worrying. It is important to helping each
other in the world.
