"Food for every ones table and every homes"



Over 2,000 have died from Ebola, and thousands more have died from suicide bombings and armed conflicts.  But as WHO stats say, 12 people especially from Africa, die every minute from famine and malnutrition

This translates to 17, 280 deaths per day.  or 6, 307, 200 per year (Is this right)  This is a huge number.

This is a serious problem and therefore must be addressed by all nations and UNICEF and FAO of UN.

What is the scenario if we ran out of food? Food insecurity
