A proposal :

We should love food and should not waste it. However, not all the people realize the importance of this, and some even waste food. Meanwhile the food in the world is not enough, some countries or regions have so less food that their people have to suffer from hunger. What's more, some people die of hunger. It is said about 17000 people in the world lose their lives because of hunger every day, most of them are from Africa, where there is not enough food. What a horrible number.
