What did you learn about dietary choices from using the footprint calculator? Now imagine that you could translate what you learned into an effective societal policy on food- what would it be? And how would this policy effect the need to alleviate world hunger?
925 million people on earth do not have enough to eat according to the FAO [Food and Agricultural Organization]. That's almost 1 in 7 inhabitants of our planet!

Food and Hunger
Why do so many countries waste hundreds of thousands of pounds of food when some people are dying of hunger?
Wasting food might not affect you or the people around you but somewhere there are people dying of hunger. Whether they can't afford the food they need or their country isn't supplying food for anybody there are always ways to support people instead of wasting food you specifically don't need.
