Why is there Hunger in the World?
There is hunger worldwide and there have been riots emerging in many countries where people have to fight for food.

About 963 million people across the world go hunger every day according to the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO). However, just in the US 3/4 of the grain is used to feed farmed animals. Unless we use our resources in a more efficient and compassionate way, we are causing misery to all of God's Creation.
