How many of you have been to interstellar ? I am sure you must have loved it , if you have.In addition to appreciating the talent of Nolan,we have also noticed the blight !! Well , we have sympathized with the situation of people in that movie.
We open our refrigerator at least ten times a day and come across few food items which eventually go into garbage bin (unfinished !). That food never makes a difference to us , there is fresh and tasty food for next day anyway.
LOOK INSIDE YOUR FRIDGE, AND THINK ABOUT HOW AND WHY ITS CONTENTS TELL A BIGGER STORY ABOUT GLOBAL FOOD SYSTEM - Bill Pritchard (Asso.Prof at university of Sydney)
We keep complaining 'dude ! there's nothing to eat in the mess today' and tend to eat outside the campus everyday. But how many of us know the real scenario of "nothing left to eat" in this world !?
Wait! let me tell you.
Even though there is sustainable development in production of food grains,at least 805 million people go hungry every day. More than 2 billion people suffer micro nutrient deficiencies. Chronic hunger is one of the main causes of death in India and 7000 Indians sleep every night FOREVER.
When we talk about country like India where all the poor are scattered across the country ! It becomes difficult to identify and distribute food to everyone .. But still there's got to be a way and a chance to change this !!!
As we all know that betterment begins with us and the best way to fight this is to take an oath of not wasting food. How much more effort would it take , to ask for small servings multiple times in a mess ,rather than taking large quantities at once and throwing it ? Imagine the amount of happiness you can see in a beggar's face when you give him food ,rather than just 'catch my coin' thing. Feed a hungry person on road ! Trust me , It would not take much time and effort ,but you will carry a memory and satisfaction for lifetime.
When you know you can make a difference , what are you waiting for !
So you wanna change the world ! What are you waiting for !
