By Louise Bastiaans

The CauseThe cause of hunger is:

1.The climate changes might cause drought.

2.Poverty(Poorness).

3.Fair Trade.

Hunger=Hunger means that you don’t get enough food. But also

means that you don’t get sufficient vitamins and minerals and that you

don’t have a balanced diet.

In September 2000 the largest ever gathering of heads of state started the new millennium by adopting the Millennium declaration.189 countries have agreed to this. These goals will be reached by:

2015

Hunger around the world

963 million people are hungry.

Eleven million children under five years old still die every year

because of hunger.

• Every day around 3 million children die of hunger,1child each 5 seconds die

from a hunger related cause.

• Some families can’t afford food this is one of the reasons people die of

hunger.

150 million children die because their weight is to low.

Comparison

We eat Pizza a lot and wish we can have more and more pieces of pizza.

When they wish for something to eat.

Around 10,000,000 people round the world die each

year.

Poor countries have a lot

of people with hunger.These countries

can’t produce or buy enough food products.

Because the places where they live might be dry and

have no water without water they can’t grow

crops

A poor farmer might have have a certain amount of rice and nothing else he would have to feed his family rice and nothing else because they can’t buy other kinds of food. His family will not get all the nutrients they need.

This 4-year-old girl in Ghana walks 2 1/2 miles twice each day to carry water.

Thanks to Ryan(Ryan’s well) kids don’t have to walk that far anymore. But the you will have to dig deeper down in the ground to get more water.

nearly 700 million people live on less than $1 a day.

The “Stop Hunger Now” has short term solution by making a school lunch

feeding program the lunch that the kids get contain dried fruit grains,rice soy,

and other nutrients things these lunches can last for 5 years.20 cent per meal.These lunches are being packed

by volunteers in the US.

There are enough sustainable resources right now to feed

everyone on the planet.

Solution

1,2 billion die of hunger (50% off) 600 million people die of hunger

after.

It’s another day for you

and I in

Paradise
