Fossil fuels account for more than 80% of the world's energy sources. They are a non-renewable resource estimated to be depleted within the next 100 years and also one of the main factors leading to pollution and climate change. Renewable energy sources are naturally replenished but produce a limited amount of energy per unit of time and need a lot of technology and research to improve. The greatest challenge in the renewable energy source revolution is encouraging developing countries to switch to renewable sources instead of relying on fossil fuels. This needs assistance in the form of financial aid, trade, investment and technology transfer.
80% of disabled persons worldwide live in developing countries; only 10% have access to education. Disabled individuals are in need of special services and programs which are not found or are lacking in developing countries, usually because they are costly or require financial aid. The general public in such nations needs to be educated on the importance of providing tailored education to individuals with disabilities, as well as on the necessity of recognising their equal worth and integrating them into the community through employment.
Children are usually among the first to suffer from warfare, and to this day the international community has not yet set a Charter dedicated to protecting the Rights of the Child during times of warfare. Violations include killing or maiming children, recruiting child soldiers, rape and other forms of sexual violence, abduction, using children as strategic defense, and denial of humanitarian aid. Orphans that lose their parents in conflict are usually left to fend for themselves in unforgiving war zones which strip them of their basic rights to shelter, safety, food and education.
