Even the environment attacks poor people. When nature strikes, the world’s poor suffer the most. Poverty and the environment are closely connected, and those living below the poverty line are deeply impacted by deforestation, lack of safe water and natural disasters.
Because a life of poverty means the poor carry a shade of poverty in their hearts and wear it etched on their faces. They become shells of unfulfilled potential and possibility.
Poverty shouldn’t snuff out life — unless we let it. Please don't let it and make a change. You can’t turn the whole world upside down from one day to another but you can leave your footprint everyday and influence your environment in a good way. A small step for you, a big one for the world.
