Cause de mortalité

Le nombre de morts par obésité (3 millions) est bien plus grand que celui lié à des famines  (1 million). L’homme a plus de chance aujourd’hui de mourir de vieillesse que de maladie. Il y a plus de décès par suicides que par faits de guerre.

Pour la première fois de l’histoire, on meurt plus aujourd’hui de manger trop que de manger trop peu ; on meurt plus de vieillesse que de maladies infectieuses ; et les gens qui se suicident sont plus nombreux que les victimes de tous les soldats, terroristes et criminels réunis. Au début du XXIe siècle, l’être humain moyen risque davantage de mourir d’un excès de McDo que de la sécheresse, du virus Ebola ou d’un attentat d’Al-Qaïda.

Yuval Noah Harari – Homo-Deus

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.
