This is a great website to get specific answers to a lot of the questions about global warming and the "greenhouse" effect. It is fairly basic but allows a lot of questions to be answered from the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service.

The international system cannot determine for the people the needs, however obvious the needs may be.

MDGs are derived from the international system rather than the domestic environment. They are thus perceived to be foreign, however good the intentions may be.

Institutions in many African countries are derived from developed countries’ institutions. This makes the whole idea of independence derisory.

An opinion is put forth here that solutions for Africa must come from Africans so that they have legitimacy. Parochialism is a hindrance to solving political and healthcare issues in Africa (because people are not aware of their rights and privileges?).

Quality of education is related to "status" therefore those in poverty have less of an education on safe sex, and have a higher teen pregnancy rate.

bolivia poverty south_america water

shared by sleavitt on 23 May 07 - Cached

COCHABAMBA, Bolivia - The people of this high Andean city were ecstatic when they won the "water war." After days of protests and martial law, Bechtel - the American multinational that had increased rates when it began running the waterworks - was forced out... its executives fled... protest leaders pledged to improve service... celebrated the ouster as a major victory.... Today, five years later, water is again as cheap as ever, and a group of community leaders runs the water utility, Semapa. But half of Cochabamba's 600,000 people remain without water, and those who do have service have it only intermittently - for some, as little as two hours a day, for the fortunate, no more than 14.

It links current policy trends of solving poverty with social issues, buying or consumer trends, history in deficit spending by the government, and the assistance provided by the government. This site talks about the inequalities of the minium wage and other statistics that are linked to global poverty.

  This map breaks down the poverty in rural counties by race or nationality. African Americans have the highest number in poverty especially in the rural communities. Hispanics are the next, then Indians and I am assuming that Cuacasians stand for other. Irony.

  The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services defines poverty according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Why aren't thier numbers matching. Health and Human Services has a lower dollar amount per family household than the Vensus Bureau. I think they are assuming that the average American works at minium wage and that is not the case. The only information that matches is that poverty was not even considered until the Civil Rights movement.
