Nearly 690 million people fell into hunger in 2019

  Maybe you who are enjoying the food will subconsciously say "how can there be so much", but this is really not alarmist!

  Recently, the latest "Global Food Security and Nutritional Status" jointly issued by five United Nations agencies shows that nearly 690 million people worldwide fell into hunger in 2019, 10 million more than 2018. The total number of hungry people in the world has increased by nearly nearly five years. 60 million, in addition, as many as 130 million people may fall into long-term hunger due to the new crown epidemic this year. Moreover, the report shows that Asia is still the continent with the most hungry people, with a total of 381 million people suffering from food.

  We have learned in kindergarten and elementary school. Diligence and thrift are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.

  When you were young, your parents would help you eat the leftovers silently. After living independently, leftovers will be dumped into the trash can. Some wasteful habits are formed invisibly. As material life becomes more abundant, some people begin to regard wasteful behavior as commonplace.

  The most common thing in life is waste of dining tables! Some people order dishes wantonly in restaurants and wasteful. It doesn’t matter whether you can eat it or not. Don’t you just try to save face when you treat a meal? Most of the best delicacies are left. If you remind him to pack, he might even turn his face on you, thinking that "tasteful" people can't do such "humiliating" things. But have "tasteful" people ever thought that in many corners of the earth, many people are still struggling with poverty and hunger?

  In addition to food waste, long running water, ever-bright lights, uncontrolled use of disposable products, and excessive packaging are all "waste" behaviors that we take for granted in our daily lives.

  The bowl of rice you waste may be the whole day's rations of other people's family. A drop of water is wasted every day, and in the end we will be one step away from drought.

  What you dismiss, sometimes is exactly what others dream of; what you abandon like a shoe is often what others cannot ask for.

  There are netizens who have possessed the leverage, saying that the so-called waste can expand demand and stimulate consumption, and it can increase the income of related industries... How is this confusing logic? Our purpose of saving is to use the saved money and resources on other effective things.

  "Save resources, start with me." Put an end to waste. It is not easy to say that it is not difficult to say. The key is to start with yourself, start with small things, not to show someone's nobility, but only for those who are connected with our blood. !
