Rice, meat, vegetables and fruits… Every day we can eat different kinds of food. You may throw away your extra food easily. But don’t forget that many people in the world still don’t have enough to eat.

Right now, there are more than 1 billion hungry people in the world, according to the United Nations. Many children go to sleep hungry, and 15 million of them die from hunger each year.

However, food waste is still a big problem. Every year, we make about 3.9 billion tons of food. But in a year, 1.3 billion tons of food in the world goes to waste in all.

We could give the wasted food to many people. For example, the amount of food wasted in Europe could be enough for 200 million people in poor countries. So next time when you are being picky (挑剔的) about food, or can’t finish your meal, think twice because others aren’t so lucky.

What can you do to prevent wasting food? The following tips may help you.

●If you go to a restaurant, do not order too much.

●If you cannot eat all the food in the restaurant, take it home.

●Don’t be too picky about food. Some food may taste bad, but your body may need it.
