http://www.plime.com/world/en-ushttp://www.plime.com/world/http://www.plime.com/world/l/58908/1/ here , I've looked around gapminder.org to find this video (one year younger) with even more animated and fun graphics, and with even better presentation by Rosling. Keep looking until the end, when the seemingly impossible becomes possible.
There is hope for the world when there are passionate people like this around...]]>

Human Rights gives everyone a voice in that song.Wow, did you just make that up? That's absolutely poetic.]]>http://www.plime.com/world/l/58908/1/rss0_91.rss#q3http://www.plime.com/world/l/58908/1/rss0_91.rss#q2
I'm not sure I think of sword swallowing as "impossible" since so many people have done it, it's obviously not impossible, but a great ending to this speech.

I was very surprised that culture plays such an important role. I would think human rights would be more important. He didn't really explain why culture was more important except that it makes people happy or it bonds them, but so does human rights.]]>
