Still, in today's world, some 1.3 billion people are trying to survive with less than one dollar a day, and 30,000 children die each day of preventable diseases. We must not leave a burden for future generations. We must also face the new challenges of our times, such as protection of the environment. The issue was completely ignored in the post-war period, when the main goal was to rebuild what had been destroyed and to constantly increase production without any thought being given to the consequences.
