Food security & poverty/hunger
-who is affected?
-how many are affected?
-is this a major problem
-what are some solutions?
Anyone who starves is affected by this worldwide issue. Specifically, the people who cannot afford food or are in situations of food scarcity are all who are affected. As I remember someone telling me, over 50% of the world population is suffering from poverty. The world "we" (that is, anyone who is be able to read this with a proper house, computer, and internet access) are living in, is just the beautiful half of the world. Of course this is a major problem! People are dying from starvation when in some parts of the country, people are suffering from obesity and trying to prevent food wastage. Can you believe that? People are talking about food wastage when some are not even getting any at all. This is certainly a big problem. It's messed up. The solution is to better manage food distribution all around the world because there certainly is enough food to feed everyone on earth. We must stop indulging in so much luxury. Instead of buying a new car, which is very unnecessary, you could help the African kids. The whole system needs to change. The Africans should be provided with foods of equal quality and equal abundancy as those we find in North America or Europe. It's not fair that some people get enough food - enough to waste by truckloads - while some don't even have drinking water.

1. To encourage people to give
2. People need physical nutrition and love. Therefore, we who have these, should give those who don't already. As Krishnan states, "the ultimate purpose of life is to give." Also he believes that we should do so because "everybody's the same."
3. I do agree with the fact that we should give the needy. However, I wouldn't say that would change the world. It won't put an end to world hunger. It's just nice to give.
4. It's a story.
