    I've been a part of NGO which help such people, literate poor children. It always feels good if you do something good for others.

    I don't care at all. I think there are already way too many people on earth, and it's not stopping, so we're not in danger as a species, we are the danger to our species :)
    That being said, I don't care, I have a short lifespan, some of us have an even shorter one, so what? Why should we care? How does it affects us? Just because the tv said so or for some other mystical reason?
    I'm busy enough taking care of myself and my family, I don't have free time to take care of others who don't care about me too.
    As for the animal, it is the same story, I don't care, if they're big enough they'll eat you alive, they don't care too, why should I.

    We should help the needy in our own little ways and also the NGO's are there too to help.

    NGO's should help but most of them don't. I've read a lot of articles that claim that CEOs (and other employees) of those organizations have huge salaries and only a small percentage goes to charities. Do you think that's OK?

    The problem is, nobody wants to stop doing what they are doing. People do not care about it, either the governments around the world. The world is coming to an end, what a shame.

    Advance the cause of freedom everywhere. Internet and computer technology is inexpensive enough that it can be spread to all corners of the planet and help everybody everywhere communicate with each other. There ARE enough resources to go around, but there are too many dictators and oppressors standing in the way of getting resources to people that need them. The more that technology can be used to expose these injustices the sooner these oppressors will go away.

    Quite the contrary, the world is doing VERY WELL !
    Just have a look at world demography in the past century..

    More is not always better.. If you plan on feeding everybody for free, have only rich people, eradicate violence and injustice, keep on dreaming..

    But yes, taking donations is very good business, put up photos of horrible things happening and play on the guiltiness of average people in western world.. Take 30% for administrative costs and give the 70% to other organisations which will also collect their share, then publish your receipt, and ask again for more money..

    Because basically, it will never end, so you can make a career about it..

    And yes, if you include the poor animals too, you're set!

    I can't afford to have a pony. I can't afford to feed it, and I have nowhere to put it. But I want one. I'm going to get one.
    Now that I have one, I am overwhelmed with how much food and care it requires. Unless somebody else pays for the food and care of the pony it will die.
    I am uneducated about caring for a pony, and now that I have one, I don't know what to do with it. It's your fault that I am uneducated about ponies. My parents didn't tell me anything about ponies. Even though they had 10 of them and I watched them all die because my parents didn't feed them.
    I expect the rest of the world to help me feed my pony. You made me buy a pony. My pony will die unless you send me money for it. Give me my pony money.

    Even if we care there is very little we can do directly about it. There are things we could do to help but in many cases they are not adequate enough to meet the needs of the poeple who are needing help the most :(
