Hunger in America is an American problem. The hunger of one should be the concern of all. Especially the hunger of children - our children.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The issue I have always felt most strongly about is hunger in America, in particular the children.
Hunger is a political issue, and there are several things politically that are keeping people hungry - not funding food stamps adequately, not funding school lunches adequately. So there is a political solution to the problem of hunger.
Eliminating hunger in America is doable, because we have the resources to do it.
Our nation's anti-hunger programs need to be strengthened.
One in four kids in the U.S. faces hunger.
Poverty is a very complicated issue, but feeding a child isn't.
When people can't feed their children, nothing else positive happens. You don't have to look farther than the United States to see that.
Hunger and malnutrition have devastating consequences for children and have been linked to low birth weight and birth defects, obesity, mental and physical health problems, and poorer educational outcomes.
The lack of access to proper nutrition is not only fueling obesity, it is leading to food insecurity and hunger among our children.
As an anti-hunger advocate, I found the perplexity of the obesity problem and the hunger problem existing side-by-side in our increasingly global food system begged further investigation.
