What level of apathy do you maintain toward world issues?

Asked by digitalimpression (9920points) June 3rd, 2012

By apathy I mean: To what level do you directly care about each specific world issue.

There are always people starving, dying of diseases, dying of age, getting shot, having a poor quality of life, etc.. It’s not that you don’t care about these people .. it’s just not realistic to weep about every single death in the world.. or every single woe.

If you were to directly care about each and every one of the world’s problems you wouldn’t have time/money for much else.

How do you choose which issues to become involved in, to donate money toward, or to have an emotional connection with?
