General

In spite of the fact that there are many causes of global hunger, overall, there is enough food to feed every person in the world. However, unfortunately, not everyone has a chance to get the necessary food, and more than 700 million people are still starving. In order to reduce global hunger people should take some actions, such as reducing food waste, food sharing, and providing school meals.

Every time when we go to the store, we can see people who have enough money and access to food products and we can see the way they make their purchase. They buy a lot and a lot of food that probably they will not be able to eat and at the expiration time they just throw it away.

For me it does not mean that they are just throw their own money, it is more than that. It is very harmful to throw away food when there are so many people who are hungry in the world. If every person starts to buy food reasonably, they will save some food for others as well as their own money.

One more option to reduce global hunger is food sharing. In Canada, there are many locations where some can donate and others can get the food. It is a great opportunity for people in need. If this option is very popular and modern and it might be a good solution.

Finally, it is well known fact that most of all, children are in need of good quality and full of nutrients food and products. In this case schools all over the world (especially in developed countries) must provide balanced lunches for students at schools. It is a win-win situation. Children from wealthy families or wealthy countries will get knowledge about proper nutrition and healthy habits, and students from a poor environment will get access to the healthy food that they might not have at home. Moreover, it is about equality too.

Global hunger is not something that exists far away from us. It is hard to believe that in modern world there are a lot of starving people but it is true and everyone can do something to make someone’s life a little bit easier.
