There’s so many people dying from hunger, we should appreciate our food more. Around 9 million people a year die from hunger. You should at least finish or food or give it to the people in need so that you don’t waste the good that others really need.

I agree with you, we all need to be more aware of what is happening and we need to eat and buy food with more responsibility to avoid wasting food given that in many countries there are many people dying of hunger.

Food waste is a huge part of the carbon that is emitted into our atmosphere. When food is thrown away and put into land fills, or burned, all the carbon that is stored in it contributes to the greenhouse effect. This is why it is so important to compost. Composting has many benefits: it helps store the carbon from the food that stores lots of carbon in soil and stops it from being emitted into the atmosphere, it provides fresh soil that you can use to plant and grow your own food, it attracts beneficial animals that will help break the food down such as worms, and it stops landfills from being filled with food waste and trash. Composting is something that is so easy to do, and even if you do not have a backyard to do it in, you can have a composting bucket inside. It involves just a few extra steps in your daily routine and it is one of the most powerful actions we as individuals can take to stop climate change from reaching its full potential.

I totally agree, another solution to reduce the waste of food in the restaurant could be the use of "doggy bags", cardboard boxes that allow customers to take home food they have not eaten.

I totaly agree with you, another thing that could be done would be to, at the end of the day, perhaps give away to non-profit organizations or sell at a reduced price everything that you were unable to sell during the day, in this way it would avoid the phenomenon of homeless people rummaging in the trash looking for food or even animals that, attracted by the smell of food, sneak into bins, creating a nuisance. this would also help many people.

I agree that we shouldn't throw food away because of how many people have to go through hunger. Even food places have to throw all the extra food aways. When they can just give it to hunger. As of 2023 44 million people go through hunger each year. It should be when people have some waste they should give it to the hungry and the homeless. There are multiple reasons why people should look more into hunger. For example, there were 13 million children in the United States that went through hunger in 2022. And in 2023 there were 17.6 million children that are going through hunger. I think that people should try to find a solution for hunger because it's a serious problem.

i agree with you and we must collaborate to combat hunger by redistributing surplus food, prioritizing children’s nutrition, advocating for policy changes, and embracing innovative solutions. Let’s think big and ensure that no one goes to bed hungry.

I agree that we need concrete solutions to tackle hunger. We must work together to reduce food waste, create better distribution networks, and ensure that anyone in need has access to food. Hunger is a serious problem, and every step we can take to fight it is crucial.

The problem of food scarcity for many people has persisted for at least 50 years, if not longer. There are areas on Earth where people literally die of hunger and receive aid only from humanitarian organizations, which, of course, cannot solve this huge problem on their own. Additionally, in recent years, even in the wealthiest countries, there has been an increase in poverty, which, of course, leads to difficulties in accessing food.

To solve this problem, both internal and external, there should be a massive economic commitment from the wealthier countries. While they work to address the internal issue of poverty and food shortages, they seem to completely ignore those countries where people are dying of hunger. Only the wealthy part of the world could currently make a difference by providing real economic aids and educational support to help these countries make the most of their limited resources.

In some of these countries, it is also unfortunate to note that the political situation plays a role, with extremist governments refusing foreign aids.

Food waste is a serious problem both in Italy and in the world. Every year, about a third of the food produced globally is wasted, resulting in an economic loss of about 700 billion dollars. In Italy, this translates into a loss of about 9 billion euros per year. The main sources of waste are households , restaurants , supermarkets and production. The main reason for household waste includes forgotten food in the refrigerator. Even though Italy is not among the countries with the highest waste rate, it still represents a significant challenge. The UN has included reducing food waste in its 2030 Agenda, with the goal of halving it within the next 7 years. This will require a global effort to change consumption habits and reduce food waste at all levels of the supply chain.

While the money lost due to food waste is a lot, the worst thing is how it affects people who don't have enough to eat. Think about it: there are millions of people in the world starving every day, even though there's more than enough food to feed everyone.
When we waste food, it's not just throwing away money; it's throwing away good food that could have helped feed someone who's hungry. This isn't fair and it's not right.
Reducing food waste isn't just about saving money or being eco-friendly; it's about making sure everyone has enough to eat. It's something we all need to work on together, so that we can create a world where nobody has to go hungry.

Sorry i missclicked while creating my account i am actually from Italy.

There are approximately 13 million children facing hunger. According to the USDA one in five children are not sure if they’ll get their next meal. There are many reasons children may not have food on their plate such as low family income, lack of housing, and discrimination. Child hunger can result in a poor academic performance, an increase in health issues, and can greatly affect cognitive function. As well as there are results of this there are also ways to prevent these results. We can prevent this by hosting child food programs, SNAP applications assistance, and advocating for food programs in general. Getting enough food is an important first step to ensuring kids can achieve their goals. If we continue to ignore these problems we are hurting our future.
There are many factors that put the attack on the world hunger crisis. The main locations that suffer the most from this conflict are mainly the areas that have the most 
wars. One of the biggest examples of this problem would be the war that is very recent, the Ukraine war that has caused them to lose money, property, and of course, food. Another reason would be climate shock. The problem with climate shock is that it destroys the soil and ruins the crops. Climate shock isa weather pattern that is unpredictable and can ruin land as time passes. If climate shock doesn't have a solution, the world will continue to be at stake. The prices on global fertilizer have gone up tremendously, and that just puts more pressure on the citizens who are forced to pay more the inflated price. The effects of the current war with Ukraine has made the gas prices go up and also affected the golden fertilizer export routes, which is important to those countries. Golden fertilizer route is a fertilizer that guarantees the growth of crops all around the world, and is transported from country to country. With the increased operational cost, the WFP (world food program) was facing a huge drop in funding in 2023 compared to 2022. This leads the people into great hunger and are forced to fend harder for food. This issue also caused the nutrition assistance to increase up to 50%.
Luckily, many people are now starting to realize and become more aware of the heavy population of starving people and are starting to protest, speak up on social media, etc.
When people start to not waste, be helpful to the unfortunate, and help the third world countries that are in need of food.

The hunger crisis around the world is made worse by things like wars and weather. When there's fighting in a place like Ukraine, it makes it hard for people to get food and other things they need. Climate changes can also ruin crops, making it even harder for people to find food. The cost of products are going all up, wich makes it difficult for people to buy some food.
But there's hope. More people are realizing how serious the hunger problem is and are speaking up about it. By being less wasteful, helping those who are struggling, and supporting countries in need, we can make a big difference in fighting hunger.

Food hunger is a significant issue affecting communities all over the world. There are a lot of people who don't have access to food every day. It's a problem that needs our attention and action. We can make a difference by supporting organizations that gives food to those who are in need and by working together to create solutions that can fix the main causes of hunger, such as poverty and unequal access to resources. Together we can guarantee that everyone has enough food to lead a healthy and satisfying life.

I completely agree with you, unfortunately it is full of people without principles and highly indifferent to these issues. I find it disrespectful to waste food instead of making sure it reaches those who dream of a plate of food. There's a lot of people who have the economic possibilities to act but who prefer to keep everything for themselves, I think that as long as there are selfish and indifferent people, world hunger will remain a problem to defeat.

Have you ever wondered how many people are left hungry across America and the world? Studies show that “Approximately 45 million young children across the globe suffer from severe malnutrition each year; that's nearly one out of every three children under 5 years of age.” The World Food Program estimates that 345 million people will be food insecure in 2025 more than twice as many as in 2020. So how can we solve this problem? Well to start we can start to do organic farming rather than relying on fast food and major corporations for the majority of our food. We can also make food more accessible to others by creating food drives with food that we may not eat all of. Do you ever wonder just how much food you throw away? Well in the United states we throw away nearly 120 BILLION pounds of food per YEAR in the US alone! Imagine if we could just start small donation centers where we could donate the food that we didn't finish or didn't use. Some may even say, “Well who is going to pay for these centers for food?” Well the answer to that is pretty simple, 10.5 percent of homes in america are vacant, that accounts to 15.1 million homes around america alone that we could use to house items for the hungry and needy! Together we can make a change but it will take every one of us.

I completely agree with the issues you addressed. The statistics provided are alarming and highlight the urgent need for action to address food insecurity globally.

In Italy as well, food waste is a significant problem. According to data from the Ministry of the Environment, every year Italians waste around 5.6 million tonnes of food, which is equivalent to 76 kilograms per person. This  highlights the need to reduce waste and ensure better distribution of food resources.

One practical solution people can adopt is meal planning. By preparing a weekly meal plan and shopping list, people can buy only what they need. This will result in a reduction of the amount of food that will probably be wasted. This not only helps to minimize waste, but also promotes more conscious consumption habits.

Hunger is still a big worldwide problem today. In 2022 nearly 258 million people across 58 countries faced extreme hunger and severity. It’s clear that this is and will continue to be a major problem across the world. Although it is a big problem, there are ways to help the problem be less severe. One way to help the problem is to increase accessibility of food. If the United Nations worked together, they could make food more accessible for poverty stricken countries that don’t have easy access to food. Another way to help decrease hunger in the world is for countries to put an emphasis on decreasing food waste. If people didn’t waste so much food, there would be less hunger in the world. This may seem obvious but, many people waste a lot of food alone, not to mention the whole world. According to Recycle Track Systems, In the U.S. alone nearly 120 billion pounds of food are wasted every year. This is just the United States. If the whole world is taken into account there is no doubt it would be much more. Although countries are making efforts to help solve hunger, it’s safe to say it isn’t helping much. For example, the USDA has programs that support child nutrition and provide technical assistance to farmers. A lot of countries are doing small things to help with the problem of world hunger, but it is still not enough. There are millions of people all over the world facing hunger. If we all do our part it will help decrease the problem but it won’t eliminate it. Hunger is just one major economic problem. There are many other things that affect our planet.

In a world up to 783 million people, 1 in 10 of the world’s population, faces food hunger.
1. Food insecurity is increasing at an alarming rate: In 2022, nearly 258 million people across 58 countries experienced and faced starvation or worse.
2. Major drivers of hunger: COVID-19, weather conditions, and conflicts around the world. Conflicts/Wars was the main cause. For example, Afghanistan, South Sudan, and Syria.
3. The WAR IN UKRAINE: As Ukraine is a major exporter of cereal grains and sunflower oil, it disrupted global food supplies. Rising food prices, energy price, and growing financial crisis all increased hunger risks.

YOU CAN HELP END WORLD HUNGER BY DONATING!!

Youth and adolescents are reaching adulthood against a backdrop of unequal and unsustainable food systems. These systems are failing to deliver food and nutrition security and are highly vulnerable to climate change and environmental degradation. Despite this, the number of young people participating in the decisions that will affect their futures is limited. The pursuit of food sovereignty, the right to healthy and culturally appropriate food produced through ecologically sound and sustainable methods is an opportunity for the younger generations to transform failing food systems into systems that are more sustainable, and able to meet the needs of the world. It’s critical to invest in young people’s capacities to become leaders in food systems transformation. This means investing in their education and skills development, as well as their health and nutrition. Current food systems policies and investments are failing to address the intergenerational cycle of hunger in many parts of the world. Solutions must embrace a long-term perspective beyond 2030 and reflect young people’s livelihoods, options, and choices.The right to food must be central to food systems policies, programs, and governance processes, and people must be able to realize their right to food in ways that are socially, culturally, and ecologically appropriate for their own local context. 30% of children under the age of 5 are suffering acute malnutrition. The world produces enough food to feed all of its 8 billion people, yet 828 million people go hungry every day. Of those 828 million, the World Food Program estimates that over 40% are facing acute levels of hunger. The amount of people is insane. The races that are hurt by this the most are Black (22.4 percent) and Latinx (20.8 percent) households are disproportionately impacted by food insecurity, with food insecurity rates more than double the rate of White non-Latinx households (9.3 percent). Children 1 in 8 lived in poverty in 2022.Wasting food is a huge problem in the United states. Millions of people waste food each day. It is hard to realize when you actually do have food to eat everyday that some people don't. According to the 2023 State of Food Security and Nutrition World report, between 691 and 783 million people faced hunger in 2022. Hunger has been increasing by millions each year. Want to know something absolutely crazy? World hunger may never end. Given the current pace of progress, reaching Zero Hunger by 2030 is a likely impossibility. In fact, 58 countries won’t even reach Low hunger levels by then

To say that food affects the carbon footprint we leave on the planet is an understatement. The majority of greenhouse gas emissions produced by farming are mainly caused by methane from the cattle that is used for various meat and dairy products. Even some things you’d never expect, like fertilizer, cause emissions of nitrous oxide into the atmosphere. Deforestation is also a thing used on farmlands to expand the farm further. There are also things indirectly related to the farm environment that cause greenhouse gas emissions (GGE). The first of those being maintenance of the farm. This includes things like the burning of crop waste and the management of manure. Another indirect source of emissions is the usage of fuel powered vehicles and tools, which release massive amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. Food storage and waste coincide with each other in this instance; having poor food storage leads to more waste, which means there is a surplus of GGE, and the cycle continues.
So how do we reduce our GGE via food? The solution is honestly easier than most people are willing to admit: being mindful of our food consumption and making sure we don’t waste as much food as we do right now. By only taking what we need, I.e, planning and portioning foods, there’s less chance of excess wastes being produced. Switching out your red meats for more fruits and vegetables can not only give you vital nutrients, they make you feel more full because of the sheer amount of dietary fiber. By reducing our food wastes to only the inedible parts, you can also start a home compost pile, allowing the food waste to break down naturally to become a fertilizer for your yard/garden.
Doing this will, hopefully, prevent rising GGE by creating a more sustainable way to produce and consume food products. Being mindful about what factors in the food production produces the most GGE and the alternatives to red meat and dairy products. Another thing, by reducing the amount of red meat consumed, we can also hope to gain back the forest-land that’s being cleared out to make room for more pastures. Not only combatting the amount of GGE from the cattle, but also allowing the natural ecosystem to help replenish the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere.
If all of humanity is willing to put in the effort, I have no doubt in my brain that this is a logical step towards the future. We just need to be willing to do better. Not just for us, but for our future.
