Titled, "Rising Food Prices - Nearly One Billion Go to Bed Hungry"
Put Food First - Every day nearly 1 billion people go to bed hungry. Rising and volatile food prices are causing pain and suffering for poor people around the world, driving 44 million people into extreme poverty in recent months. We need to find solutions to ensure everyone has enough nutritious food now and in the years to come.
This 2:50 video supports some of the World Bank's statements.
Recently World Bank President, Robert B. Zoellick said, "Nowhere are high food prices, poverty and instability combining to produce tragic suffering more than in the Horn of Africa.” The World Bank President has been advocating for the G20 to put food first since the beginning of 2011.
