Stopping World Hunger

Written by: EO Sy

Hunger is a severe lack of food. World hunger is hunger taken to world level. People often talk about stopping this situation and helping the ones affected. Poverty is the state of one who lacks a usual or socially acceptable amount of money or material possessions.

The relationship of poverty and hunger

Poverty as said above, is the state of one who lacks an on money or material possessions. Poverty is a cause of hunger. One needs a reasonable amount of money to buy him/herself food. Hunger happens because of unfair treatment. Not because of the lack of food. Only the ones who can afford to buy food are the only ones who can eat food.

Ways on how poverty and world hunger can be stopped

Education can give uneducated citizens better opportunity to access money and food. Another way is to stop the growing birth rate by educating the people about reproduction. The high birth rates in the world is a problem if we want to stop poverty.

Another way to stop this is to give women opportunities to work and study. A lot of places in the world have women stay at home instead of working. If we can make women work too, then two instead of one is providing for the family.

What I could do to stop world hunger

I can't do much since I'm only a student. But I can help by not wasting food. About half of the amount of food is being thrown away everyday. Those could've been for the people but they all just ended up in the trash. Another way is to donate. There are a lot of organizations like Unicef that aids in stopping world hunger.
