In Europe and United States they spend $17 billion on pet food annually But…

Elimination of hunger and malnutrition globally would cost only $19 billion.

Globally we spend $15 billion on perfumes But…

Universal literacy would cost only $5 billion.

Globally we spend $14 billion on ocean cruises But…

Clean drinking water for all would cost $10 billion.

Europeans spend $11 billion on ice cream every year But…

immunizing every child on the planet would cost $1.3 billion.

I’ll ask again… Are theses our issues?
