I am looking at the reasons why so many people are going without an adequate supply of food, and what approach we should take to remedy this. Not being able to have thean adequate supply of food can affect your health and lifestyle, causing you to become ill.
There'There are ‘11 in 9 people who go to bed hungry each night. That's 795 million people on the planet who suffer from chronic hunger, according to the United Nations World Food Program. theThe U.N. forecasts that an additional 2 billion people will be lacking food by 2050.’,(www.latimes.com/world/la-fg-global-world-hunger-day-20170528-story.html). This number is extremely high and rather scary knowing that almost 797 million people in the world will be going without, or with a great shortage of food. There are a number of reasons whywhy- by 2050 there will be so many people that will be going hungry. One reason, whyis that the supply of food can be affected by natural factors issuch as the weather/ temperature. asFor example, if we have an extremely dry couple of months, less crops will be able to growgrow- meaning not as many crops will be sold to local supermarkets.As meaninga result of this crop shortage, the price for the crops will go up. Another reason for natural factors infecting our food supply is the pestsdisaster example is when there is a surplus of insects and other bugs that affectwill infect the crops.
