How many people die each second from hunger?
about 5 people die each second from hunger. now tell me how many were shot down by the guard tower each day
Answeri have been doing a report over Hitler and i think he killed about 5 a second Answeractually, 25000 die every day.doing the calculation, it would be ONE person every 5 seconds (0.2 people per second)
About 21,000 people die every day of hunger or hunger-related causes, according to the United Nations. This is one person every four seconds. It is children who diemost often.
Yet there is plenty of food in the world for everyone and many other people are dying from malnutrition but who are overweight as they do not eat healthily. They are eating a macro nutrient diet which is a diet of carbohydrates, protein, and fat. Overweight and particularly obese people are often not eating enough micro nutrients. These nutrients are vitamins and minerals found in vegetables, whole grains, and fruits. Unlike macronutrients, you only need them in trace amounts. Hence the prefix, "micro". Without these nutrients the body can grow and move, but its functionality will suffer tremendously. It can even cause severe sickness and death.
Then there are phyto-nutrients which like micronutrients are only consumed in very small amounts. They are found in bright fruits and vegetables. This is basically what provides those foods with its bright colors. Phytonutrients are not really a necessity because you won't die from a deficiency.Your body obviously needs a certain amount of vitamins, minerals and phyto-nutrients. Some experts are starting to think that if you eat lots of calorie dense foods that are low in these nutrients, your body will tell you to keep eating until you get what you need. In other words, if you don't eat foods with enough good nutritional value, your body will have a harder time sensing when it has had enough.
The bottom line is that it is very possible to be overweight and still be malnourished. It simply comes down to the ratio of macro-nutrients to micro and phyto-nutrients that you consume. If you only focus on how many calories you are consuming, chances are you aren't getting enough vitamins and minerals. Not getting enough of those nutrients can cause you to be malnourished, no matter what you look like.
An alarming symptom of this problem is the 80 million Americans are diabetic, or pre-diabetic and this number is growing each year.So the United Nations figures excludes excludes the overweight and obese people who are also dying from a different kind of hunger. A hunger that they are trying to feed by eating more and getting fatter.
Why do people grimace just before they die?
Unless death is very sudden, the body has to become aware that its systems are in BIG trouble. So for a short time the body goes into chaos prior to death. Undoubtedly, some people experience discomfort--thus the grimace.

The economy did well, there was a lot of employment and a lot of work to be done, like building bomb shells and ammo for the war. The women got to do some of the mens jobs when the men were off to war. Overall the economy was great and there was a high demand for wheat since the wheat prices went up in Canada at the time.

As much as I know there were no Concetraition Camps in Canada, that is a stupid quetion if I have ever heard one.

Forty Prisoner of War Camps were set up for 33,798 German and Italian POW's and 6,437 Civil Internees (mostly Merchant Marine).

How did Canada become involved in Afghanistan?
In 2001, after the Sept. 11 attacks on New York and Washington, the U.S. government demanded that the Taliban (at the time the government of Afghanistan) to hand over Osama bin Laden, the head of al Qaeda the terrorist organization that carried out the attacks. The Taliban essentially refused and the U.S., with the sanction of both NATO and the UN, invaded and aided rebel factions which had been fighting the Taliban for several years. In less than 30 days, by November, 2001, the Taliban had been ousted from power. Canadian soldiers, specifically the commandos of our special forces unit Joint Task Force 2, were in Afghanistan from the very beginning. In 2002 a battlegroup from 3rd battalion PPCLI was sent to Kandahar to aid in hunting down remnants of the Taliban and al Qaeda. In 2003, Canada began participating in the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Kabul and sent more than 1,000 soldiers at a time on 6-month rotations to the Afghan capital. In 2006, Canada agreed to send a battle group and brigade headquarters to Kandahar for the transition from U.S. control (operation enduring freedom) to NATO control (ISAF) and has maintained a fighting presence there ever since. Canadian troops are responsible for security and fighting Taliban insurgents in Kandahar province, in cooperation with British, Dutch and other coalition forces.

As long as you have permission [ a visa ] to travel as a tourist or reside as a registered alien in some countries.
Myself, I have been living out of Canada [ in Southeast Asia ] for about eleven years, and have recently met a Canadian citizen who had been employed by Walt Disney Studios as a cartoonist for almost 30 years, and is now retired and living in Las Vegas, Nevada.
He is still a Canadian citizen because he has never applied for American citizenship, in the 40 years he has lived and worked outside of Canada.

How did the economy change in Canada during World War 2?
First of all, it influenced theJewish civilians around Europe very much so and in general war weariness all around the world. People in England lived every day in fear of being bombed or gassed. They even had to carry around gas masks. The civilians on both sides were forced to produce materials of war and were taken away to supply a steady stream of soldiers to replace the many casualties. Almost all the government's decisions influenced civilian life during that time, for most of the government's decisions were military based. I hope this helps
Afghanistan Sudan Iraq and i cant remember the other one!!!!! lol xoxoxo Paige!!
What was Hitlers action on Canada during World War 2?
I seriously doubt that Hitler would have travelled to Canada. Before his rise to power, Hitler was either poor, in gaol or rising through the Reichstag's German Parliament so he was too busy to travel. During the war though, Canada was on the side of the Allies because it is a territory of Great Britain so Hitler would never have gone there.

Why do people die from radiation?
Severely oversimplifying things, ionizing radiation causes damage to cells:
- some cells die immediately, enough die the person dies in hours to days
- cells die in the digestive system, causing diarrhea and dehydration and the person dies in weeks
- mutations transform cells to cancer, tumors grow over years and the person dies many years later
- etc.
We can only assume she broke it off with you; otherwise, you wouldn't be perplexed by her wishing to keep in touch. Assuming it was her idea to break up, it could be that she doesn't want to burn her bridges. Perhaps she had feelings for you but wanted to date other people and felt you were getting too attached, so she broke it off before things got too difficult for you (and her) to manage. Now, she's in another relationship and says it's going well (for now, that is), but who knows how long THAT will last? You could be her safety net. Some people have trouble making clean breaks. Maybe she still cares about you and wants to be friends.
