What are Global Issues and why should I care?

There are many problems in the world that we need to solve. There are many people in the world that are hungry, or poor, or they are dying if HIV/AIDS. The most disturbing thing is that people out there don't care, or are not willing to do anything.People in Africa are dying everyday because they don't get enough food, and in America, people are getting overweight. In places like Asia, there are too many people and not enough food for everybody. Everybody should do their part to hep make the world a more livable place. Just because you are well off and living a happy healthy life, doesn't mean that you shouldn't do anything to help people out. A shocking fact is that many people live on less than a dollar a day. None of us could ever imagine having to live like that. We really need to help.
A simple way we can help is to play the Free Rice game. Every time you answer a question correctly, you donate a spoonful of rice to hungry people. Another way we can help, is by donating food to hungry people on the streets. It's also very important to never ever waste food, because then there is a whole bunch of food that somebody else would do anything to eat. Next time you take some food, and can't finish it and are about to throw it out, think of all the people in Asia and Africa who need that food.
