0:49Now PlayingPeter Singer, author of "Famine, Affluence and Morality,” talks about the benefits of effective altruism and our moral obligation to help others.
Effective altruism focuses on raising the minimum living standards and encourages everyone, not just the wealthy, to give and find happiness in contributing to a better world. Singer breaks down the history of the effective altruism movement and shares the example of Zell Kravinsky, who donated most of his wealth and a kidney to a stranger, exemplifying the practice.
Singer also emphasizes the need to do thorough research before donating to any cause to ensure the greatest good.
