Millenium Development Goals: ERADICATE EXTREME POVERTY & HUNGER
I always grew up with more than enough food to eat at any time I wanted to eat. But a lot of people in the world do not have any food to eat. Why is this? This is because there is so much of a difference in the world. There are little balance or equality in the world that we are living in today. We eat a lot of food, almost more than enough, and I heard a lot of sayings saying to finish the dish when eating but some kids don’t want to eat because they are so full. This is the problem. Some other kid somewhere else in the world without food needs food but because of the great inbalance the kid doesn’t obtain required sources for the body to develop properly. Some of them eventually die of starvation. Their parents do not have any money to feed themselves either.
This is why this is so important. Poverty and hunger kills a lot of people. Every day people die from hunger and poverty. This picture of a child, this was the first thing that popped out when I typed poverty on Google.
This picture is saddening because none of us who manage to look at this picture through a computer would have this kind of body build. This child is near death, because of malnutrition. What we should do is help these people in need by donating food to them and share the things we already have. Not only donate but help them to stand by their own feet. We should help them to be able to produce their own food. If they rely on the countries that support it wouldn’t be much different from the concept of AID. We know that AID is only increasing the gap between countries and it will not completely eradicate poverty or hunger in the world. It is complicated for me to say what to do to completely eradicate poverty and hunger. But shouldn’t we at least give up what we really don’t need more than the countries in need? We should form global alliances (Goal #8) and together help out the countries most in need. It might be difficult for the developed countries who donated and helped out after this but we should worry about that when we come to it. This problem has been existing for too long, therefore we should, as the UN said end this problem by the year 2015.

It wasn’t bad but the picture of the little boy surprised me greatly. However, the concept of hunger relating to AIDS was a little confusing because they are not alike in many ways.
strong enough for people to volunteer and help. I like how you used a photo of people showing hunger and poverty to give the viewers a strong image.
This post really made me think. The picture was very shocking. I think the entire world need to achieve peace though before hunger and poverty can be counquered forever.
