The paradox of hunger in the world

- It is estimated that a billion people worldwide suffered from starvation in 2012. This means 1 person out of 7.
However, our planet produces enough to feed its entire population. Hunger should therefore not exist...

its been 7 years since this vid and there's still World hurngr. ima have to step in
oof its fucking sad
If we can shut the whole fucking world down for a virus that mostly kills people aged 60+ with already having (severe) health problems, but we can't solve this hunger problem that kills 25.000 people every day (from wich 10.000 children) for the past 30 years. I'm guessing sadly, it won't change any time soon.
It’s fucked up bro. Here in America we waste so much food I can’t stand to see other places that are hungry everyone deserves to eat!
@@HipHopMusics
The main difference is those 60+ getting killed by the pandemic may include the top 1% (the elites) while the ones starving are the bottom 10%
Thank you finally
thankyou for this video. the call for attention is presented well.
thank you for this amazing video
The business singularity eventually produces more food that is just thrown away in grocery stores and the producer of food keeps growing more food than they need to keep that thing happening.
This video is almost 10 years old and the problem is still very urgent. I think that the governments should take action and form global partnerships to solve it together! 💪
Wait until the lakes finish drying up
So youre basically saying government policy has created the problems, and the solution is more government policies? You have got to be kidding me
@@axeandtimber4650 better government policies. or adjusting the previous policies so it helps everyone instead.
we must share this video to our all social media feeds.
or send this to our goverment pages/site.
So basically the problem is that countries that colonized others, "tought" a way a economy that dominates the world, but historically, 3rd world countries never really learned how to manage this and became corrupt and negligent
Probably has something to do with the fact that countries that were colonized received little to no support after colonization ended for them or like Haiti, for example, who revolted.
People talk a lot of crap about their poor economy but one major reason for that…is the fact that no one would trade with them after they gained their independence.
@@fibonaccisequins4637 Nobody supported Europe to promote free societies. The people took that responsibility.

This is my biggest dream, to end world hunger ❤️ I wish I knew how I could help, I'm not the smartest but I do have a lot of empathy for the poor
How about you just grow some quality organic healthy food. Start there.
Thank You ❤
Amazing video!!!

Thanks so much
And not once did you mention the fact that over half of the crops produced in the world are fed to farmed animals. WASTE of resources!
Yes 10 kg.😨 of corn produces 1 kg. of pork.
I just wanna say it not as bad as it sound corn has very low calorie density then pork like you can eat lot of corn like a pig or you can eat pork
I am not saying that we shouldn’t decrease meat consumption but I am saying we need lit bit of animal meat 🥩 in life
Respectful Living says:
"And not once did you mention the fact that over half of the crops produced in the world are fed to farmed animals. WASTE of resources!"
"Yes 10 kg.😨 of corn produces 1 kg. of pork."
==
You'd be selling the 1 kg of meat with the same price as10kg of corn(or more).
It's not a concern of producer of meat or corn who's going die from the hunger.
That's capitalism.
@@powerzzz3565 We could be growing food for people but instead we're wasting 1/3 of our arable land mass to grow grass and grains to feed and fatten livestock. WASTE
@@jellyfishi_ We absolutely do not need to eat animals to get 'protein'. Where do you think the largest plant eating animals on the planet that only eat plants get their protein? (Like Silverback Gorillas, Elephants, etc.). There are 9 essential amino acids that need to be derived from diet. These amino acids bind together for ‘protein’ synthesis. Scientifically: Proteins are polymer chains made of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. PLANTS contain ALL of the amino acids essential in human nutrition.
One of the biggest scandals of our time.
This wouldnt have happened if they just "eat".
This was Bolivia before Evo Morales. Now it has become a case study of what happens when you try turn the "paradox" around.
Someone can help me answer the question:
1. Describe briefly the current paradox of hunger in Congo, Ethiopia, and Bolivia.
2.What are the causes of hunger in the three mentioned countries?
3.Which measured/policies are proposed to end hunger in the three countries?
Many thanks!

All the answers are in the video. You can search some up on the internet or read individual reports on the countries.
Amazing
it would also help if people from poorer countries didn't use so much of the crops to feed the animals to sell meat, to people who are richer for them to make money to support there own family create other people who are poor to stave. also if first world countries didn't throw away food from there markets because of the reason they didn't look right (like a straight banana) and using the food amounts we have before importing more. Which if we ever do stop world hunger it links to other things which would then stop child labor` and child trafficking more , because there wouldn't be so much of a need to sell them to help with the cocoa to sell to the cocoa factories for example. Also stopping the amounts of child prostitution (children being sold , because of the reason family's need money to buy food, creating some of them to sell there children to prostitution- not always for food and not always for money but for that main reason) it would stop some of that as well.
the system is the problem.
@@jellyfishi_ if the system was not problematic, those people should not have get what they got now. any system that causes this kinda consequence is problematic.
If mr beast too can do a video that is related to world hunger then it will make a huge difference
Problems : government policies
Solution : support family farms, ngos.
Wew lad.
Only 79k views in 8 years...that sucks...
Wrong solution. If you want to make a difference, vote with YOUR wallet by buying from local small farmer (like me). But don’t try and force the choice on others (protests, policy, etc).
I would like to like this video, and while it raises good points it seems that there is the lack of understanding. The US does have a hunger problem which can results in the obese issue. There is not access to proper food and healthy food is very expensive. 43 Million american's are hungry. I know this is a small fraction compared to the world but there are still very hungry people here.
People in America have access to healthy food. They choose to support private companies that produce low nutrition food from cheap by-products because it's easier and accessible. Not to mention addicting because of the flavor enhancers they put in it.
If anybody can come up with a plan to end world hunger it would be one man. Someone who truly wants change in this world for the betterment of everyone on the plant. And that guy is Michael Tellinger. I dont know him personally but i have watched many of his videos and alot of what he speaks about resinates with me and if you are reading this comment and you dont know who he is look him up and also watch his video titled, 'One small town'..... If we have any hope of solving world hunger doing it that way would probably be the closest we could get. PERIOD!

I see many organizations that claim to be involved in the fight against hunger. Do you have any recommendations? Thank you for this
Angels of east Africa is a good 1, if u really were able to they would have u come down and help out u dont need to do ate $ to some u trustworthy charity, this man and his group do serious help boots on the ground help, helping those communities to eventually help themselves check it out.
Not really a paradox.

There's nothing wrong with soya bean that's a complete protein. It has to be grown for humans
If you want to solve world hunger don't sell food to nikocado avocado
Come on please stop wasting food cause later you will suffer cause laterally every single person can make an huge difference
Not sure how “support family farms” is a solution. Any family farm can make the same wasteful decisions as corporate farms, collective farms, and etc. Also, how about limiting the population? There is no amount of food production that wouldn’t be insufficient if the population grew large enough. Not saying we are there yet, but population size is exceeding that planets ability to absorb our usage/misusage. Lowering the misuse will only get you so far. Eventually the amount of sunlight striking the earth happens at a fairly level rate. Food production is tied fairly directly to sunlight. So there is a cap on production. Which thing will limit our population? War, famine, pestilence, or free choice? Fun times we live in....
A bit too politicized ... Appeals, political forums, letters to the politicians, ... But nothing about doing actually something when this year the problem of food shortages might be 'exported' from Bolivia, Congo and Ethiopia to the US and Europe! 😪
Need farmers? Need doctors? Need trades people?
Maybe the government could take a pay cut and incentivize people to pursue such needs.
NO NO...We can't do that. The government needs their regular pay raises. Think of another way!
All people that got here after Ellon Musk bought Twitter, notice how he doesn't say "money" as part of the solution.
UN and Leftists- “Elon Musk is rich enough to end world hunger, he’s just too greedy!”
Elon Musk- “Ok, just tell me your plan and I’ll send you the money”
UN- “...NO! 😖”
Says a lot about the people we put in charge.
What the capitalism does best, concentration of wealth(make rich richer, make poor poorer).
Wealth is finite. Capitalism is like a game of music chair. Making money doesn't mean you create another chair, you take the chair from somebody else.
If you let the capitalism does all the work, nobody's in charge(planning) to reverse it.
What else do you expect?
allgoo19 agreed under socialism everyone eats lol
More like an irony than a paradox
It is deliberate policy so it's not irony.
Grow their own food
It’s about money and agendas but the fact of the matter is that no-one in the west knows how good they have it and how we have to effectively manage the third worlds population for them as well as sustain our own but everyone lives in la ka land these days thinking everyone around the world thinks as they do because of everyone being level 100 >insert intellect demeaning insult here
So youre basically saying government policy has created the problems, and the solution is more government policies? You have got to be kidding me.
Developed countries have non-profit organizations tailored to fix the messes that *they've* made. Crazy...
No not really
And it's not fixing the issue
The problem is the free market
The problem is both. The problem is people are people u say its the free market, its communism 2 and the people who run those nations.
it might also be helpful if the birthrate in east Africa wasn't over 10 times what it is in Europe
Over 10 times is a bit of an exaggeration. It's closer to 7 times using the most extreme polar ends for both continents (Angola 44 vs Monaco 7).
Nonetheless, while birth rates do play a role in world hunger (exacerbated by the vast difference in education levels, also explaining why so many of them are farmers), the food supply generated by these countries should be able to sustain the population, as shown in this video.

Nonsense considering western waste and overeating
Let Europe provide an education and contraception for them then. 🤔
They are poor and in order to survive they need extra workers babys provide that help. Birth control and loans for farm equipment would end both problems.
The reason why the birthrate in these countries is much higher, is because the deathrate is also much higher.
If we make sure they are more likely to survive into adulthood, their birthrates will become smaller too.
Today's money lacks the strength to reach everyone. We could make it more powerful, we could make it free, why not? A virtual money, today the technology to do it exists. Money like the one you get in any application or mobile game, of course. Why not? For everyone, without exception, that would equal us all.
Although on the other hand, that would not prevent people from stealing, killing, trafficking, etc... so it would not change things too much either. Unless..
Unless this virtual money was not transferable, that is, there could be no exchange of money between two people, so a person would always have their stipulated money and could not take possession of another person's. In this way, "seeking for to enrich oneself" would not exist. How would a gangster pay his hired assassins? He could not. What would this money be? How would it work?
Everyone has a monthly payment, the butcher, the pharmacist, the delivery man, they all do their usual work. If i go to a store and buy something, the money that the product costs is deducted from my virtual wallet and disappears, it will not end up in anyone's virtuals wallet. Each one receives an equal salary for doing his work. And here comes the following, How to make people work and not live without doing anything? Making a monthly payment for workers and a significantly lower monthly payment for the unemployed, enough to live but not to fully enjoy life.

How about the fact that most of the food grown on this planet gets fed to animals? Who are then consumed predominantly by those same fat, sick, rich countries?
the quality sucks
The solution to this is *Eating.*
Fuck if i was a billionaire, and had the resources of say, musk, bezos, buffet, gates, cuban, Zuckerberg, just seems like a serious problem could get solved. Its frustrating
Can we just admit the problem is capitalism which evolved from colonialism?
Does god have a plan?
This global issue proves that god doesn't exist and if he does he doesn't care about humanity.
@@Maxmax10050 maybe there is a god and an all-knowing 1 at that and this type of stuff along with the rest of our petty wars and bullshit just dont register to such a being imagine knowing everything there is to kno, and being immortal, knowing whats to come and what came b4, why would we be off any significance to such a being, especially the way we are, were just a gutter out in space, its tragic. Like Rust Chole said, consciousness may be a tragic mistep in evolution we're an aspect of nature that thinks we are separate from itself. Its a raw deal. That being said here we are and the few minutes it took to write this another several thousand children died of hunger and sadly by the time ur done reading it several thousand more will have perished
Everything batman collector Very well put. Humanity’s biggest problem is being unable to recognize that it’s existence in the universe is just as significant as an ant colony.
why blame God? this is all human irresponsiblity. it is in our own cultivation that talents and blessings multiplies.
and all this global warming or climate change are all because of human waste and disconttenment and continual abusement.
dont blame God. blame our ways.
Yes, He has a plan. It's in the bible. He's going to destroy the evil. Which means the entire world. Maybe we should have considered His plan before we became so evil and corrupt.

They should have never wanted to join our markets. If only these people stuck to themselves and their surroundings they would at least be less exploited.
Don't you read history? People kept to themselves or in your words "stuck to themselves" but wealthier and more powerful countries interfered.
The Living God loves you so much that He sent His Holy Son Jesus from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins, and to be put into a tomb 3 days and rise from the dead the third day, and He (Jesus) went back up to heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent.
So if we all pray sincerely in the churches (and other temples), the problem of starvation will be resolved?
