Everyday about 1 Billion of the world population dont get meal. How many billion waste the food daily ? How many tons of grains perish without proper storage ? How many of us think about the hungry brothers and sisters ? If we are serious we can definitely feed them, with the available resources.
Thank you very much. Keep it up.
