Worldwatch Institute’s Danielle Nierenberg says while a billion people went to bed hungry each night, it wasn’t because of a lack of available food.
世界观察研究所Danielle Nierenberg说虽然10亿人每天晚上都饿着肚子入睡,但这并不是因为缺少可食用的食物的缘故。
"We produce more than enough food in the world to not only feed the 7 billion people who are on earth today, but 9 to 11 billion people. By 2050, we expect the population to be about 9 and a half billion people and we currently produce enough food to feed all of those people. The question is really one of how do we get food to the people who need it the most. Poverty really impedes the progress of allowing people to be able to eat well. Not just getting enough staple crops, but being able to buy fruits and vegetables and the things that will really nourish them."
“我们在世界上生产制造了足够多的食品,这些食品不仅仅能满足今天地球上的70亿人口,而且能满足90-110亿的人口食用。我们预计到2050年人口数量将达到95亿,所以我们现在就生产出了足够多的粮食来满足人口增长的需求。但的确有一个问题就是我们怎么将粮食分送给需求量最大的人。贫穷的确会阻碍人们吃饱吃好的进程。这不仅仅局限于让他们获得主要的农作物,而且还要让他们能买水果、蔬菜和真正有营养能滋养他们的东西。”
The Worldwacth Institute said in 2011 far too many people were living less with they needed. For example, it says over one billion people were hungery and just as many people were illeterate.
