Many people hasn´t got enough money for life, it is caused for many things, for example, the bad situation that these persons are living, the places where they life, especially in places underdeveloped where it has extreme poverty or the economic crisis,… Many families life this hard situation and they need some money to feed of their kids and for survive day to day. Kids haven´t got a good childhood in this hard situation because some kids can´t go to school and they must job.
ResponderEliminarA lot of food in good condition is pulled and wasted because the appearance of food in supermarkets are so important for sell this products to people. This food is good for our health and the imperfect appearance doesn´t affect and it is editable. This food can be used for people who hasn´t got enough money to eat each day.
Tesco is to become the only UK retailer to not longer waste food fit for human consumption. The company’s chief executive, Dave Lewis, has urged other supermarket chains to follow Tesco’s lead and adopt the changes that it will implement by March 2018 because they think that it´s a good way to stop the hungry and a good way to take advantage of this food.
It is necessary to take advantages of all of things that we have because many people hasn´t got it and we must help us for have a better life. This people value more the small things that most people.

ResponderEliminarMany people are dying of hunger, because they do not have enough money to buy food and eat. This cause is due to not having work in those places, and there is a lot of crisis. Some children have to work to get food instead of going to school. and learn. These people should feed their children. That is why we should not waste food and not make a large amount for one person, we should take advantage of the food. For example in supermarkets when they spend a few days and the fruit has not been sold and is in bad shape they throw it away, that food could be used to feed those people.
ResponderEliminarPoverty, is a situation or way of life with scarce resources to meet human needs, due to lack of resources, such as food, housing and education.

ResponderEliminarNowadays food is very important to survive. Sometimes we throw away the rests of food, but we
ResponderEliminardon´t think that are many people in different countries that haven´t got enough money to buy food. Many times when people are in crisis or difficult situations they don´t have access to it. So, some supermarkets like Tesco do not waste food that are fit for human consumption. Moreover, in Australia The Inconvenience Store, Melbourne rescue products from bakeries and big supermarkets like Aldi to donate them to customers.
Front my point of view we are really fortunate to be able to have almost all we want, for this reason we have to take care of all we have, and help those people.

ResponderEliminarNowadays, lots of people throw away a lot of food which could be given to consumption to other people who are starving because of different reasons. We don´t realize that in other countries there are people that can´t buy so much food as us. That´s because they are living in a poor continent or in areas that are affected by wars or drought.
ResponderEliminarIn my opinion, we don´t value enough everything we have. For this, there are some companies or supermarkets like Tesco in UK which collect food and drink and give it to people who really need it, because thousands and thousands of kilograms of food are wasted around the world.
All in all, I think we should think more about the poor people who are starving around the world and try to do something to help them like donating money or food to ONG´s.

ResponderEliminarWe live in a privileged country because there are poorer countries than ours, because in other countries people die unfortunately due to lack of food every day.
ResponderEliminarNowadays, we can help them. For example, every day we waste food in our homes and other people need it to survive.
In addition, in many supermarkets the products that aren't in perfect conditions are discarded, so that all the food has a good appearance for the people.This food is good for our health and appearance does not affect us. We can use this food for people who don't have enough money to eat every day. As Tesco, he is the only retailer in the UK that no longer wastes food that is fit for human consumption in its supermarket.
From my point of view, we must appreciate what we have, because many people dream of having to eat every day. We have to help them and not waste so much food thinking about them.

Every day people throw away the food that they do not eat and there are many poor people who do not have money to eat and buy . So, why throw away the food? In Sydney, has opened the first supermarket of rescued –food that provides donated products. In this way, no food is wasted . More over in Australia customers are asked to pay what they can and as they feel .
ResponderEliminarI think that people should be more carreful with the food that they buy to don´t waste it.

Nowadays, there are some places around the world where people don´t have enought money and they don´t also have food. That´s a really important problem because we often waste food that are in good conditions. So, what can we do to help?
ResponderEliminarOn the one hand, each person should buy the food you need, without surplus. Besides, if you have too much food at home and you aren´t going to eat it at all, you can give it to poor people or sell it.
On the other hand, It is important that big companies and countries help, for example, in Australia had been open the first rescued-food supermarket!
In my opinion, we should think about our actions and not throw food in good conditions. In addition, it is very important to help others and be generous!
Nowadays, food ,in some places and countries like Africa or South America, is a problem because there is not enough food for all the people and the little food there are it is bad quality.
ResponderEliminarIn other countries like USA or Spain, we have the opposite problem, because every day we throw a lot of food and we must stop it, because there will can be a moment that we have not enough food for us.
I think that the rescued-food supermarket in Australia is a very good idea because this concept means that all of the food that we throw up they offer it to another people and this food is good harnessed.
The rescue-food supermarket could be stay in more countries for solve and end with the thrown food and finish this problem that is not good for anybody.

ResponderEliminarFood waste is a sad thing. A lot of people in our world are dying of hunger. This is quite unfair because nowadays lot of people waste and throw away food.
ResponderEliminarIn my family, we never waste food. If there is some food left one day, we freeze it and we eat it another day. It` s not as good as recently made, but at least, we don' t throw it to the bin.There are also lots of food problems with food because there are lots of hungry animals too! So they open trash and they make a great mess all over the street.
In fact, we shouldn' t waste any food because there are people that don't get any food and neither do animals.
Nowadays, there are a lotf of country around the world where people haven´t got any money and they also haven´t food. In the other countries like spain the opposite happens because we throw a lot of food in the trash a day.
ResponderEliminarI think that should be more rescue-food around the world to try to put an end to this big problem. And I also think people could be a little more carefuly and not throw away leftover food.

Because , these foods are delicious , in my fridge there is some milk , four carrots , fish , some butter , five hamburgers , some cheese , there is a pizza , etc

Today we usually waste a lot of food and this should not be the case, since there are many people in other places or countries who do not have enough to eat and this is a big problem and we do not realize it.
ResponderEliminarToday there are also many associations that allow us to donate food for this type of people, in my opinion I see it very well since this helps a lot to those people who do not have work and need money to buy food and feed their family, in addition There are also associations to donate money that also help these people in a good enough way.

Today there is a lot of famine in many countries all over the world. Do you think that if we can all agree, we can help those countries most in need to get out of the situation in which they find themselves?
ResponderEliminarOn the one hand, people are to blame when we go to the supermarket and buy everything we catch without knowing if we need it or not, so when buying so much you do not have time to eat all the food before it expires and therefore the we end up throwing it away.
On the other hand, the fault is with the large supermarkets since they could give food that is about to expire and is in good condition before throwing it away, since it is a large amount of food that is thrown in supermarkets and almost all of it is in good condition.
In my opinion, both supermarkets and people should be more understanding with all those people who do not have the resources to feed themselves and their family. It would also be necessary for there to be more food stalls where people donate food for those most in need.
The food is anything necessary in the life, because we need to live. Some people haven´t got food for eat, because they haven´t got enough money for buy it, or there isn´t food in their countries. However, the food helps us to earn money, in the restaurant, in the supermarket…

FOOD
ResponderEliminarEvery day people eat food because it is necesary but some people waste it. The food is something necesary beacause we need it to life. In the word there´s a very big problem, some people can´t have it because they haven´t got any money and every day people died about that, so people can´t waste it.
There´s a lot of supermarkets than waste food.
Food is necesary and people can´t waste it.

Sometimes, we are not conscious of the food waste that is present in our lives, but if we had a measurer of food that we are wasting, the amount of food would be amazing. What a pity!
ResponderEliminarI feel really angry when for example we are in a restaurant or a bar and the cook is wrong and they change your dish and they throw the wrong food into the bin. I understand that this food you can not put to another person, but maybe we can search others alternatives to this type of situation.
Maybe, we are not conscious that there are a lot of people who don´t have anything to eat, maybe we would not throw food if we had been hungry once a time in our lives.
