Minature Earth

I found this link today. Minature earth looks at different statistics as if the world was a village of 100 people. We all know how unequally wealth and resources are spread throughout the world, this short clip (just a few minutes) really brings the point home.

It was absolutely haunting. I hope everyone gets to see it - films like that really do show just how unfair and imbalanced the world really is.
