Four Children Die Of Hunger: Social Media Analysis

The lack of food is a big issue in the world. People who live in poor area cannot provide enough food for them and their families. There is more than one reason of the lack of food in the world, such as, the wars that make people live in scared and poor like what happened in world wars I and II, and the dictatorship countries that don't make their citizens live a normal life as in countries developed intellectually and culturally. There are many people die of the lack of the food in the world because they cannot find food, or maybe there is food, but they are not able to buy it because they don’t have the money that makes them buy it. Eddie Izzard said “In every minute of every day, four children die of hunger” (Izzard. June, 6, 2013). This

This makes them the leaders of these markets and people cannot find another supplier. People there are starting to think and understand this exploitation by these companies.

But it is also critical that we push ahead with more medium term actions to make agriculture a priority. Based on a rough analysis, we estimate that a doubling of food prices over the last 3 years could potentially push 100 million people in low income countries deeper into poverty. This is not just a question about short term needs, as important as those are. This is about ensuring that future generations don’t pay a price too” (Zoellick, April, 13, 2008).
