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
Hunger is a constant issue that we have on this Earth. A constant issue that we have everywhere. But this issue is caused by the lack of care that people have when throwing out food. Statistically, every year America wastes around 70 billion pounds of food .We need to make it a habit of eating everything that we buy because it is not only a waste of money but a huge waste of food. However, having zero food waste is quite hard and we understand that. That is why my school Bishop O'dowd has already started putting out compost garbages all over the campus because we all know that food waste happens sometimes, but at least reuse it.
