Hunger is everywhere
HungerNine million people die from hunger each year. Hunger is the cause of 45% of children's deaths. Hunger is defined as suffering from lack of nutrients and food. With no food, people can get very sick. 1 in 6 children don’t know where their next meal is coming from day to day.
Everyone feels hungry on a daily basis. Most people are able to satisfy this craving and need. Even if not immediately, they can count on having a meal or snack within hours. This is not the type of hunger that we are concerned with. People who suffer chronic hunger don’t have the option of eating when they are hungry. They do not get enough calories, essential nutrients, or both. People who are hungry have an ongoing problem with getting food to eat. They have a primary need...how to feed themselves and their children today and tomorrow. They have little energy for anything else. |
Farming Effecting HungerPeople in in certain conditions whether they live in a developing world or not, can deal with hunger. A month of bad weather for a farmer or an illness for a worker and a loss of income, can mean less food and hunger.

Effects of HungerPoverty is the main reason of hunger. Almost 1 in every 15 children under the age of 5 die of hunger. In 2017 40 million U.S citizens were dealing with hunger.
