Why Cycling for Humanity worldwide Campaign?

Day by day people are experiencing more and more problems, every day we see several painful or inhuman incidences. Recently, we have seen brutal incident at Delhi and there are many such things which are happening around us. Since several years people have been talking about several issues like global warming, pollution, unemployment, corruption, natural calamities, savior health problems, drug addictions, irresponsible people etc. Every one want to get rid of these problems, but very few people really think about root cause of these issues and some among them works in real solution to address all these issues. 

Whatever problems we are experiencing root cause is lack of humanity, selfishness of people or human greed. Unless we bring humanity into real life practice it is impossible to address all these issues. The only way we can help the situation is by simplifying our lives.
