An article about the Solutions and causes of Poverty

This article is about the causes and effects of poverty, and some studies that have been done on it. While reading this article, I was surprised to find out that almost 36 Million people in the United States are in poverty.

A great website about poverty. It includes solutions poverty in different country's. and just good informations

This article explains the different "Types" of poverty, like in the U.S compared to africa. It also gives solutions to abolish this mess.

I like that site 'cause it tells you how poverty can be solved. oh, and I like the graphs because they give you an idea of where poverty is in the world if you don't know.. c:

This article gives facts and statistics that could be useful for research. It struck me that 1 in 4 kids in developing countries are underweight. makes me realize that i want to give back but i don't know how

These statistics account for one third of all human deaths. More people die as a result of extreme poverty than of any other cause. This article says that !8 million people die every year because of poverty and hunger. That is only 1/3 of people accounted for. There is still 2/3 that people dont evenknow about.18 million is a lot of people. But 18 million is only the number of people recorded who died. There are millions of others dieing every year more than recorded. That was a major shock to me. I dont understand how this many people alone struggle with hunger. They could go days without food in their bodys. That just amazes me.

Its so so sad to see all of the people effected by poverty, and how many people die from it

This article explains how poverty and teen pregnancy are related.

I think it's sad how 27% of children with teen moms grow up in poverty. They deserve a better life than that even though they can't control who their mom is.

I think this site should open peoples eyes. .When i think of causes of poverty this never came to mind. This is a big cause of people who are in poverty. I also feel bad because if you are in poverty you cant provide your kid with the right essentials. And its says that about 27% of kids grow up living in poverty because their mothers were living in poverty too. Dont have sex kids. thanks. (:

This article is about how being in poverty can affect a childs' learning ability. They don't have the motivation to learn in school and I was surprised to read that wtih their emmotional state they are very self concious about their situation.

that is a shocker and i did no know that it can affect their learning ability!

This article shows the differences in poverty in different places and reasons why the poverty levels are different.

i liked how it said help stop proverty by educatong yourself and friends. It reminded me of the qoute at the zoo "plan for a month plant rice plan for a year plant trees plan for a life plant education"

I thought the article wasn't the most detailed but it still outlined ways of helping people in poverty

I think that this article had some good ideas for helping to stop poverty. It also had links to organizations that help end poverty. The article really showed me how easy it is for us to use organizations to help the world.

Forgot the tags and comment oops O.o i will post the comment. I find it amazing that 6 out of 10 of the poorest people in the world are women. This will tell you about the difference in gender and poverty!

Knowing that women are the poorest gender is both outragoious and agreeable. Since women are the care takers in the family. But losing 85% of calories getting water, is unhealthy and sad.

i think that if women got the same oppritunties as men like in jobs and education, there would be less problem with poverty in women.
