On Less-Glamorous World Disasters and How We Respond

A great piece on how we react to less glamorous world disasters. Regardless of media coverage, let’s work toward #OneWorld. “We could see this disaster coming. In fact, early-warning systems first forecast a likely emergency as early as August 2010. Non-profit organizations sounded the alarm, but at that point the situation wasn’t a very compelling news story. It wasn’t until children were dying and families were fleeing to refugee camps in mass quantities in July 2011 that the media began to talk about this disaster. By then, thousands had already died.”  http://inallthings.org/what-matters-to-us/
