Health, Human Rights and the United Nations
'In the light of impending environmental catastrophe, people all over the world, in all walks of life, are becoming more aware of the pressing need to act globally. The need to base our decisions and actions less on parochial national advantage, sequestered in hate and suspicion of other nation's playing the same game of Russian roulette, have to give way to a new appreciation of the fact that our global village is indeed so very small and perilo…
The Challenge of Global Health

Among the populations of the developing countries, at least one in four has a food intake below the critical minimum level.
