Q.1
The distribution of natural resources in the world in substantially uneven; some countries have more than enough resources exceeding their actual requirement whereas some nations are lacking even enough of them. Most of the countries utilize non- renewable energy resources including oil, natural gas and coal. Their elevated consumption adds strain on the part of those nations that already encounter energy crisis. The need of the hour is to use the non- renewable resources wisely, replace them with the renewable ones including wind, hydraulic or solar power and promote globalization. In this way, resources can be conserved and distributed evenly.
Q. 2
The eight Millennium Development Goals were established by United Nations Organizations in 1990 aimed at reducing extreme poverty to its half, controlling the spread of HIV-AIDS, provision of elementary education and many more to all till 2015. This blueprint of development was supported by all the countries of the world and development institutions with the ambition that poverty must be eradicated based on the uplifting of economy and fulfilling the social needs such as education, health, employment, social protection and so on. As far as its success is concerned, it remained quite successful as more than one billion people were lifted out of extreme poverty and hunger (WVI, 2017). However, much is yet to achieve as 1.5 million people remained unreachable while implementing these goals (WVI, 2017). Estimation indicates that number of individuals living in extreme poverty has fallen from 1990 to 2015 as from 1.9 billion to 836 million whereas proportion of under nourished individuals has fallen from 23.3 % to 22.9% during prospective years (WVI, 2017).
Q. 3
Needless to say, food is the basic element of our survival. We eat food, our body converts it into energy and we move our limbs, use brain and perform many functions in mind- body collaboration. Where there is no food, there would be competition; crime rates will increase—ransom, theft and terrorism. Everyone will act just to ensure his survival regardless of the means he uses to attain it. In a nutshell, there would be no peace in the society. Mother would give birth to malnourished children who will not be able to ensure bright and brilliant future of the nation.
