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
Wasting food can be a major issue. So instead of throwing away leftovers and banana peels, you can create a compost bin of sorts to create good soil. This is a way of reducing the amount of garbage that is thrown away. This soil can be great for gardening because those foods provide nutrients for the plants. Creating new ways to use trash can reduce your carbon footprint and help our world become safer for everyone. Not everyone has the luxury of having good food so don’t put it to waste. Many people have many ideas on how to use trash in a good way. We just need to find those better ways.
