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!

Global Hunger Can Be Controlled!
Global Hunger is controllable, and humans shouldn’t be having these issues. Approximately 2.5 BILLION tons of food is wasted every year which is about 40 percent of the United States food supply. The average adult male eats about one ton of food per year, if we wasted half as much food as we do now, global hunger would be solved that easily. Big companies should not just throw away extra food they have but don’t want. This food should be donated to the people in their area, to foodbanks, anything to help control this issue. Remember, if you have any food just lying around, you can make a difference and help to this cause.
That sounds very intelligible.
