Do you feel guilty knowing how much food we throw away on it's sell by date?
I give so much food to my dogs and cat as treats and then see news reports of kids starving in other parts of the world that I know
it's kind of wrong really.
I would never deny my pets the food but send none of the extras to starving kids abroad.
There must be a way that we can find a easy way of distributing our excessive foods to the starving.
Why cant we just drop tens of thousands of cans of food and drink out of airplanes,.
Warn them first then just drop them. No chance of them then being stolen by war lords or military bastards stealing them??????????????

yeah OR we could just sell it ot them cheaply instead of burn it..
reality is the big producers (including australia) will burn excess wheat instead of flood the market and cause a price drop.

the Issue is simple Capitalism makes the driver Profit, not human well being or effiency or anything 'good' Rolling Eyes

We send over huge packages of dry foodstuffs but it's stolen by war lords etc as soon as it's delivered.
We have to find another way but cant????????? Sad
