I hate to be cynical, and I'm not saying these problems don't exist..
But honestly, if a child/person in Africa dies every three seconds, surely they'd no longer exist? And if every single minute, a patch of the rainforest the size of three football pitches is being destroyed, why is there still rainforest left?
I know it's all tugging on the heart strings and everything else, but honestly, some of it is so far-fetched. There's also the matter of the fact that apparently Sky or Oxfam or whoever else can't afford to save [insert cause here], but can afford to broadcast their adverts on over 1000 channels (Freeview, Sky, Virgin Media, etc.) at different points in the day, sometimes up to 20 times a day.
It just makes you think, really.
