Peter Singer points out that all of us are in a situation choosing between the life of some innocent persons and the sacrifice of what we owning. I have to say it’s true in the real world, even though I don’t want in such an embarrassing situation.
Peter Singer tells the story about Dora and Bob who both in the difficult situation making decision between other person’s life and personal wealth. Compared with these two examples, the writer figures out that people who live well should have the responsibility to give the substantial amounts of money to help people overseas who are hungry, malnourished or dying from easily treatable illnesses. He lists a few numbers of some organizations to encourage people donating for others. I think it’s a good way to pursue, but when take into action, people will have different obstacles.
