I Do Suppose Food Should Be Shared.

I know it would be incredibly laborious, but imagine if ALL of the world's food was shared equally to every single person living within its boundaries.


Wouldn't it be alright? I mean, we might be a bit short on food, singularly, but if EVERYONE had some surely it would be bearable.


If it kept just one child alive for even one second longer  it must be worth it?


Houses in the UK alone are throwing away 3.6m tonnes of food. Three point six million tonnes?!


If that was shared think how many lives could be saved?


Facts:
The world’s billionaires — just 497 people (approximately 0.000008% of the world’s population) — were worth $3.5 trillion (over 7% of world GDP), whilst low income countries (2.4 billion people) accounted for just $1.6 trillion of GDP (3.3%).


According to UNICEF, 25,000 children die each day due to poverty. And they “die quietly in some of the poorest villages on earth, far removed from the scrutiny and the conscience of the world. Being meek and weak in life makes these dying multitudes even more invisible in death.”

1.8 billion people who have access to a water source within 1 kilometre, but not in their house or yard, consume around 20 liters per day. In the United Kingdom the average person uses more than 50 litres of water a day flushing toilets (where average daily water usage is about 150 liters a day. The highest average water use in the world is in the US, at 600 liters a day.)

Less than one per cent of what the world spent every year on weapons was needed to put every child into school by the year 2000 and yet it didn’t happen.
