Extreme poverty..?

Have you ever wondered what extreme poverty actually means? I definitely have and so I searched the web and found that in 2005 the World Bank defined extreme poverty as living on less than US$1.25 a day. This is equal to living on $2 a day as of 2011! A staggering 1.4 billion people around the world live on this bare minimum each day. It's a severe and terrible state of poverty where many people struggle to feed their family with one let alone two meals a day. According to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation 925 million people in 2010 were estimated to suffer from chronic hunger. People in extreme poverty are deprived of basic human needs to food, water, shelter, education, health care and security. Further, the economic crisis has not helped with around 64 million more people expected to be forced into extreme poverty in 2010.
