Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth... these are one and the same fight.

Ban Ki-moon

Ban Ki-moon
Our world is one of terrible contradictions. Plenty of food, but one billion people go hungry. Lavish lifestyles for a few, but poverty for too many others. Huge advances in medicine while mothers die every day in childbirth, and children die every day from drinking dirty water. Billions spent on weapons to kill people instead of keeping them safe.
