"Around the world, landmines render thousands of acres of land unusable and literally tear away the fabric from communities unable to farm land, unable to walk safely from village to village posing a grave danger to the lives and safety of men, women, and children everywhere," U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said recently in Washington at the release of the tenth edition of the To Walk the Earth in Safety report. "Over the last decade, we have helped decrease the worldwide number of landmine casualties from around 15,000 to 20,000 annually to approximately 4,000 in each of the last two years," Secretary Clinton said, "That is still an unacceptably high figure, but the progress we made is due in no small part to the commitment of the United States government and partner organizations to clear hundreds of thousands of anti-personnel and anti-vehicle landmines." To Walk the Earth in Safety report documents the $201 million in aid the United States provided in 2010 to help 49 countries clear explosive remnants of war and destroy excess stockpiles of weapons and munitions.
