You may have heard about the global food crisis all over the planet.

You haven’t yet? Let me summarize it:

It seems most of the world is starving besides us in rich countries.

We can do something about it though! See below.

We are making people hungry

People are hungry all over the globe. Much of it is our fault!

It’s not just the World Bank policies that favor the “first world” nations.

It’s even more direct. Our lifestyle impacts other people across the world.

Our cars and alternative fuels are one of the reasons why the food prices skyrocketed in recent years e.g.

Thus people in the “majority world” who usually get by with almost nothing, now really starve.

They are all over the globe, in

• the Americas
• Africa
• Asia

Much of this mess is also due to us rich people messing up the climate.

We are consuming way too many resources.

And we are producing far more greenhouse gases individually than hundreds of poor people in the developing world.

We change the climate

The ensuing climate change leads directly to poor crops due to draughts or floods depending where you are.

Now that we created this mess, what can we do about it?

• Whine about the slow economy at home?
• Go on buying cool stuff?
• Ignore it altogether?

I can’t! Writing for a global audience made me even more aware of global problems.

Plus I’m aware of my privileged position in one of the countries not affected by hunger or dire poverty.

What now? You’re not powerless!

You can go vegan! I already am for seven years.

Before I was “going vegan” for years and dropping animal products one by one.

A vegan diet is far less harmful to the climate.

Devastating droughts and floods are some of the main causes of global hunger.

By eating a plant-based diet you contribute far less to it.

Also a huge amount of the global crops is wasted on animal agriculture so that we can eat meat in the rich countries.

We can change the world

Do you have access to the Internet?

Are you a website owner or blogger in English — with readers potentially all over the world — or a social media user?

You can influence

1. the way the people think
2. what they know
3. how they react to it.

Even when you’re not a celebrity or popular influencer you can always make a few people aware of issues and solutions.

It’s time to use your influence for more than petty financial benefits.

Let’s fix the world. One link at a time.

I want to join me and tell how we, the bloggers, social media users, SEO experts can help the world during the current crisis.

Want to add your ideas to this post? Tell me by writing @onreact all over social media or to onreact@gmail.com

• Drop in links to charities that fight the hunger outbreak
• If you’re from India or China add information how we can help locals directly without the interference of governments
• Ways of limiting our wasteful lifestyle

Spread the word to save lives

To start out helping to spread the word I shared this article on social media so that people know what’s happening!

I hope people finally realize that these reports of hunger, riots and desperation are really breaking people’s lives.

As a philosopher once said: You can’t be happy if everybody around you is miserable.

If you represent a charity tackling the current global food crisis contact me.

I will consider supporting your campaign for free (free of charge).

Also take note that there are several SEO companies offering discounts for non-profit SEO projects.

When you’re from the countries that are affected tell us about your situation.

In case you’re like me a well-fed individual whose problem is rather obesity than hunger, act now, support us.

Also go vegan to feed people as mentioned above and support organizations that mitigate world hunger.
