The world’s hunger is getting ridiculous. There’s more fruit in a rich man’s shampoo than on a poor man’s plate

Around the world, more than enough food is produced to feed the global population—but as many as 811 million people still go hungry.

After steadily declining for a decade, world hunger is on the rise, affecting 9.9 percent of people globally. From 2019 to 2020, the number of undernourished people grew by as many as 161 million, a crisis is driven largely by conflict, climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Food production with minimal resources, food storage and processing for longer sustainability, and food distribution are the key problem areas that require constant innovation.

Let’s come together to solve these issues….!
