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 >
There are hungry people, and were throwing away tons of food!
Every day I watch people throw away trays and trays of uneaten lunch, and sometimes i'm even bad about doing it. Its not something we stop and think about every time we say were full and throw away half of a sandwich. I think that if people in a whole stop wasting food and telling other people to think about what their doing, we could save a whole lot of peoples lives.
