What Happens Every 60 Seconds Around You?

Sitting at a red light for a minute when you’re running late feels like an eternity, but in the grand scheme of things, one minute is a very short amount of time.

SUMMARY:
- Did you know that every 60 seconds, 116 people get married? And in just a minute, this world welcomes 258 newborns!
- Each minute about 18 people die from starvation. And if that doesn't send chills down your spine, did you know that at least one person dies of violence every 60 seconds?
- More the 3 million dollars are donated to different charities all around the world every single minute! Imagine what would happen if we all donated just one dollar to the charity of our choice?
- Right this minute, around 21,000 slices of it are being eaten in the U.S. alone.
- About 96 million cells in your body die each minute. But don’t worry! We have about 50 to 100 trillion cells altogether, and old ones are constantly being renewed and replaced.
- About 150 to 200 plant and animal species become extinct every 24 hours. That’s way higher than it should be naturally, which means human activity plays a major role.
- Nearly 7,200 earthquakes and more than 18,000 thunderstorms occur in different parts of our planet every single day. Not to mention, Earth gets hit by lightning at least 8 million times!
- Each day around 3,560 people take the test in hopes of getting their driver’s license. How many of them do you think will pass? Well, statistically speaking, only 1,389 of those 3,560 will!
- You already lose enough hair naturally each day: from 40 to 100 strands to be exact! But, like your cells, your old dying strands of hair are constantly being replaced with new ones, which will grow at a daily rate of 0.01715 inches.
- We’ve got a lot of work on our hands, since we now have 1.58 billion more people than we did 20 years ago. And this number keeps growing every second.
- The amount of people living in extreme poverty has fallen from 47 to 22% as of 2010.
- The average life expectancy worldwide has gone up by nearly 6 years, from 64 in 1990 to 70 in 2010.
- Another positive change is that every day more and more children in third world countries are attending school.
