There are a lot of amazing discoveries these days with the advancement of technology, biotechnology and medicine however a lot of these breakthroughs still need to benefit the nations and people who desperately need the help. Many are still devoid of basic food and medicine – not to mention the world is becoming a very hot (politically & environmentally) place to live. Many of the world’s problems stem from abject poverty. Organizations like the Red Campaign and the One Campaign are doing their part to “make poverty history” before it’s to late.

“The World End”
 
The newsman said the borders could no longer bend
From the South to the Middle Seas
All the way to the West End
 
I guess I saw it coming
All the fighting
The innocence dying
I thought it was just TV, not reality
 
Was it a bomb?
Was it greed?
Was it because people are in need?
 
Should I have cared about AIDs in Africa?
Or the troubles in Sudan?
Should I have driven less?
Or said hello more?
 
The politicians are placing the blame!
 
Communism
Socialism
Imperialism
Fanaticism
Catholicism
 
What about terrorism?
Was democracy to blame?
For The World End!
 
Apathy, Greed, Excessive Need
Religious Fanatics, Godless Nations
Immigration cessation within a diverse nation
McMansions, SUVs, Designer Jeans
Excessive suburban means
 
Abraham
Did you know your sons would act this way?
Abraham, Abraham, Abraham
Did you know that some would want so much?
When others need so little?
 
Was it a bomb?
Was it greed?
Was it because people are in need?
 
People ARE In Need!
