ReplyDeletei mean it is a big frozen wasteland of a country so it might have a lot of people right
ReplyDeleteAccording to the world factbook 15.8% of Russians are living below the poverty line, so there certainly is hunger and poverty there. Perhaps the report you were looking at did not include Russia.

ReplyDeleteits insane how many countrys and people die a day from world hunger. i have found very crazy information on this stuff and its mind boggaling.
ReplyDeletealmost 1 person every 3.5 seconds dies from hunger. sadly, children die the most, also everyday about 25,000 people die from hunger or hunger related causes
ReplyDeleteI learned that for about the third that we spend on weight loss products we could solve world hunger, which is pretty sad that while we're being superficial about looks and being overweight there are people and children dying who i'm sure would love to even be able to have a weight problem. I also learned that world hunger could be solved with what the military spends in 2 days! i agree with jesse, it is mind boggaling, it is crazy thinking thousands of people are dying a day because they can't afford to eat, while the rest of us completely take advantage of the fact we can eat three meals a day and even then some.
ReplyDeletethat is very sad that our generation is dying the most out of all of this controversery. We need to help ant way we can
ReplyDeleteI did not know that you could die from diarrhea
ReplyDeleteI didnt know that one out of every eight children under the age of 12 in the U.S goes to bed hungry every night. I also didn't know that of the 57 million people worldwide died last year, 10.5 million of them were children less than 5 years old. I knew that people were dieing from starvation but I didn't know that it was this bad. Its so sad!
ReplyDeleteThere is a way of how you can die from diarrhea.
ReplyDeleteI learned that hunger kills mostly children under five years old, and that in haiti is so bad they eat dirt cookies. I also learned that every 3-4 seconds a person dies of hunger.
ReplyDelete1.) Every day, almost 16,000 children die from hunger, one child every five seconds.
ReplyDelete2.) I cant believe, one out of every eight children under the age of 12 in the U.S goes to bed hungry every night.
