Today we live in a modern era…

Guest post by Zagham Karim, author of Town of Dudley Sixth

Today we live in a modern era. Our lifestyle is constantly changing through various technological advancements. Every week a new better electrical component is invented. As such a lot of money is being poured into technological research. Which begs the question, could that money not have been used for a better purpose?

Millions go into space projects, be it making a more powerful satellite or sending a rocket to the moon. If that money was instead spent on our own planet, think of the difference it could make. The money could be used on the under developed countries. To ensure everyone has the basic resources: Food, Pure drinking Water and Shelter.

Many poor people live around us and we do not see them. There whole lives are spent accumulating every pence they have to just get at least one meal a day.

To counter this not only the big organisations in charge, but us as individuals have to change. New projects need to be started to solve all these problems that exist on our small planet Earth. If we cannot solve our own problems, how will we be any better on any other planet (if we do ever reach a habitable one). Is it necessary to buy a gold plated phone or device. Why not use that extra money for donations on schemes that are at some level trying to solve these problems. But without the right funding they are unable to make a huge difference. However every little matters.
