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
Using the footprint calculator, I noticed that many people are receiving food but not the proper nutrients in their diets. To be able to have a good and balanced diet I do agree with many that if the region can properly keep up with a garden that they can maintain and get numerous kinds of vegetables from, then they would be able to be healthier and stay full longer.
