    As claimed by the World Bank, as of our present day, more than a billion people live not even on one dollar a day. Around 70% of them are females, and about half of the population of sub-Saharan Africa lives through it all at that level of income. Around every 4 seconds, one child dies out in the world due to a poverty issue.

    The market for sex trafficking is in the billions yet, I cannot recall any coverage on the capture and arrest of a sex trafficking ring. It would be helpful to know what progress has been made in curtailing the practice of selling children for sex. I can think of several arrests in the news for smuggling and selling drugs. It bothers me that something this impactful to innocent lives and so detrimental to society does not appear to have any signs of slowing down.

    Nearly half of the people captured for human trafficking are children. If children ever make it out of human trafficking, they have severe physical and mental health issues.

    Sex trafficking has been such a devastating thing that has yet to decline over the years. It seems as if the more time goes on, the numbers increase and not the other way around. 100,000 lives to be taken a year is so saddening. It is such a shame that there is no way even with technology today to decrease these numbers.

    By 2100, it will once again have taken approximately 100 years for the population to double to a predicted 10.8 billion. While data is collected on population growth, it is difficult for even sustainability professionals to understand what will happen globally when the world's population reaches 10 or 15 billion people.
