How can we eliminate hunger deaths in Africa?
Majority of the world's poor live in Asia and Africa. In Asia where they have thriving economy,we can at least say India,China and Myanmar can uplift their poor in the coming decade... This is not the case in African countries like Rwanda and Zimbabwe where civil wars and corruption have caused hunger deaths. Are the capitalist countries like England doing anything to save the people from starvation? How many of us ever felt sorry when we see a malnourished child from Zimbabwe that the trillions wasted in wars and SUVs could have been used better? http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Earth/US-SUV-ban-may-light-up-lives/articleshow/4714141.cms This article states that any attempt by the poor nations to increase the consumption of resources will release greenhouse gases to an unimaginable level. So are the generation of poor doomed to discomfort and misery? I had complained a lot about the Government when I was unemployed. But how many of us ever felt any guilt when we know for sure there are millions who starve and never complain? To some rude folks down here, remember that most of us cannot tolerate a day without electricity let alone food.

Why should they exactly?? people die its life, why should we step in when we already have enough problems. Maybe they should sort their own countries out! and we wont be able to save every person, look how many organisations theyre are and its not really proving to help isnt it. like oxfam world vision red cross etc

I think the world needs to pitch in. Send resources and pipes to bring water from the ocean to sprinkle vegetation for food. Let em grow it and pass it around. Of course that's an animal in itself because where there's food and water there will be wars since to them it'd be their most valuable resource. Some militia would want to control it.

Send them all your money.

england alone cannot solve the problem. when the corrupt govts of africa choose to kill their own people, it takes global cooperation to end it. unfortunately, many countries cannot afford the fiscal commitment it would take to drive out the corrupt govts in africa.

Africa is one of the richest continents on the planet. Diamonds, gold oil, natural gas......... What problems could they possibly have that they didn't create? It's their problem.

Wait...are you telling us America should go in and stop civil war in Africa? And have you ever seen Africa? It's hard to grow stuff. You can't magically make food appear. The civil wars are for their own countries to stop. People say America should stop policing the world, so I say, let them duke it out in Africa if they don't want us interfering. Saddam Hussein caused tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of deaths and people complain that America is being a big bully going in and overthrowing him. So why should Africa be any different? And if people hate America being the world police, why should England start it up?

Many nations and organizations are providing the right type of services to help the people of these nations provide for themselves rather than risk destroying their economy by sending them actual food products that they already can provide for themselves. If you send them corn and their main crops are corn, you have just destroyed their economy even more and made them dependent on your support. Any organization be it a government or a nonprofit should be working with the nations to develop a plan of independence through limited physical assistance and provide equipment and training. This is the only way to insure continued benefit.

First we should eliminate hunger in America for 10 straight years. Once we've done that, we should teach the world how to do it.

Do they farm there?How about a program that sends them farm machinery?Or farm animals.I saw a program were business women were helping people in Afghanistan start small businesses.Would something like that work here.
11 :
Can't. They simply have more demand than exists supply. Additionally, more often than not those in power in their nations would simply steal and use or sell on the black market any relief supplies distributed. If it were possible I say greenhouse gasses be damned, global warming is nothing more than a democratic political ploy anyway, completely ignoring the facts that the mean global temperature has been holding steady for several years and that several nations who had formerly supported the global warming theory have recently recanted.

Their local farmers can't compete with free food. So stop sending them food and send contraception and farming equipment.
13 :
For 45 years I heard people talk about starving children in Africa. The more food we send, the more children they produce. Nature says" the strong will survive, the weak shall die". We should do nothing, we cause the problem by helping. They need to learn to be self reliant. If we do anything, it should be to educate them how to provide for their own.

Sure. Why not? Look in the real world. Decode this lyrics " You'll see " "Reality" "Walk away" "My little runaway" How? With unruly behaviour, self prides, self rudeness, self image of standing idol, self discrimination as people of different races of self racism, self lack of knowledge and total loss of IQ with non-existence rights of original descendants? With the dead Mummy with two stiff hands stretching out creaking and rattling with whiff of rotten stench of flesh still sticking to empty skeleton of skull and bones with two empty eye sockets eerily shrieking and wailing in ghostly kitchen's dialect with ghostly and deadly words with hear-say from the Book of the Dead from the graveyards of different ghostly ancestor's culture and custom who was an Arab as their grandfather when they were tribes of different community ? Wonder why they kick the butts of their own grandfather who taught them the " Do-re-mi" and swap it for the Arab grandfather? With the universal gifts of life from Book of the Living in one new universal language and one speech in living words with the fishing line, hooks and sinkers vital for their own survival in the real world in time? Luke 21.30-36 Luke 6.39-40,41-45,46-49 Luke 9.25,55-56,60 Luke 8.5-8,10-17 Luke 4.4 Genesis 11.1,3-9 Luke 3.7-9 Exodus 1.5 Revelation 22.13-17 Exodus 20.1-7 Luke 24.44-45,47-48 Exodus 20,.12 Exodus 20.1-18 Matt 22.17-21,32 What do you think?
