"DO WE REALLY CARE ABOUT THE WORLD´S HUNGER?"

Many would say the main thing is to look at the needs in our country before venturing to worry other nation´s need as far away as Africa.

 But i´d like to share this video in order to make a simple comparison of the food´s problems around the world, which is a problem that need to be concerned by each of us. It is true our country has high rates of poverty (about 52 million poor people between 2008-2010- 48% aproximately), where only Between 5 and 9% living below poverty line.

Now look at the Africa´s landscape:

-Africa is the world´s second largest and second most populous continent (after Asia)
-It covers around 6% of the Earth´s total surface area and 20.4% of the total land area.
-There is 1 billion people (2009) in 61 territories, accounting for about 14.72% of the world´s human population.
-Although Africa has aboundant natural resources, Africa´s remains the WORLD´S POOREST and MOST UNDERDEVELOPED continent.
-The World Bank estimated (2009) that 80.5% of the populations is living below poverty line, that means, around 805,000 million of people living with less than one dolar a day.

That said, we can see the world needs...How we can simply help??? DO NOT THROW FOOD AWAY!
