    Celebrating World Food Day


    What is World Food Day? Millions of people celebrate World Food Day every year on 16
    October in over 150 different countries.1___
    2
    ___ But 805 million people, or one in nine people in the world, are hungry. Who is this the
    worst for? 60% of hungry people in the world are women. 70% of these people live in the
    countryside in Africa, Asia and South America. 3___ The USA is one of the richest countries in
    the world, but food is still too expensive for many. One in seven Americans does not have
    enough to eat.
    What is the effect of not having enough food? When you are hungry, you are sick more often
    and live a shorter life. Almost five million children under the age of five die every year because
    they are not getting the right food into their bodies. 
    4
    ___ First, let’s plan our meals better so we don’t use too much food. 5___ Save it for the next
    meal. Also, buy fresh food that is in season. That means buy winter vegetables, like carrots, in
    winter and buy summer food items, like tomatoes, in the summer. We should also give money
    to charities like Oxfam that work in poorer countries. And finally, give food donations to food
    banks. If everyone gives a little bit, together we can make a big difference.

    A Many of them are family farmers.


    B They take part in events, give money and talk about ways of helping hungry people around the world.
    C And don’t throw away food!
    D Most people believe that the right to food is a basic human right.
    E What can we do?
