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 & hunger
Lots of people suffer with hunger, it could be cause by the lack of access like not nearby grocery stores or fast food places. Children suffering with this issue can lead to health issues and impact them in there immune system, and growth as well. This is another reason why we all need to work together encouraging others to not waste food.
I agree because there are so many people that can use our help to just not waste food. Its such a simple thing that everyone can do and it would help our society and ecosystem in so may ways. It also just makes me feel bad when I throw away left over food because I know that it could have gone to someone else in need. I think that everyone should always try their best to not waste food unless they absolutely have to because it will benefit our earth in so many ways.
