The Right to Food

by Vincent


Only few of us realize, that every day horrible thing our happening around the globe. As many of us know, hunger is a problem all over the world. I think all humans have the right to food. According to me the right to food is the key which leads us to live a better life. And we all have the right to live, eat, breathe and have a roof above our heads.
 
Every 3.2 seconds a child dies of hunger. Mostly in Africa, India, China food is scarce. This is because poor people do not know how to grow their food. Many of us think countries like Britain and America import food to poor countries. This isn't completely true. Actually the poor countries give food to the rich countries.
 
Another  fundamental cause of hunger is, poverty. Many people could obtain their food but they can’t afford it. This leaves us with the question: If we stopped poverty, would famine stop too?
 
I think we should all try stopping world hunger. As a single person you can make a difference. This may seem strange but seriously, it's true. By even giving a pack of pasta you can provide food even if it is for a couple of people.
 
I think countries should focus on hunger. They should build free restaurants for poor people. If we could start giving our greatest effort to stop hunger, maybe this horrible problem would come to an end.
 
The world is like a food factory: it has loads of switches. But some switches  never get turned on, so some places in the factory never work and never produce food. All we need to do is turn on all the switches and the factory will work to its full potential, producing food for everyone.
