I think the estimated cost to eliminate hunger worldwide is around $30 billion (USD) per year. Good luck.

It won't. You can start locally. Enough people do it locally, the more people that can be helped.

Any thoughts of stopping world hunger or any other big issue is pure day dreaming...it is natural for men to be selfish destroyers of the earth for their own greed and self gratification...look at the misery and havoc and waste foisted on the world by its leaders...currently Putin and others!

You really think it's Putin? What's your favourite movie, CNN?
The world has never been better off as far as global conflict and attention to humanitarian concerns goes. Still a long way to go, but don't discount the incredibly promising trend we are exhibiting. If we can head off a climate catastrophe we should be peachy.

ok, well I am hungry myself, and while it's nothing compared to real starvation, I thought how precious a commodity charity is.

Yes, him along with many other world leaders who make for war and untold suffering ...I dont follow CNn or any news channel, they are peddlers of gloom and supports of the ruling war mongers
