In this article is written how alarming the situation in Haiti was a few years ago, and how it is still that way today. It provides some statistics referring to the country as a whole, and the death toll, and the population. Lastly, the reason for some of Haiti’s disorganization and struggle is related to their relationship with the environment.
Quotes:
“A greater percentage of Haitians live in poverty than citizens of the war-ravaged Congo.”
“…The lack of trees and all. We're always at the mercy of the floods."
