A new report from the United Nations says one in eight people
around the world does not have enough food. The U.N. reports
that 842 million people suffer from very serious hunger. This is
about 12 per cent of the world population. This percentage has
gone down. It was 17 per cent in 1992. The U.N. says many
countries still cannot find ways to feed their people. Africa is
the region with the highest number of undernourished people.
The U.N. says that one in five Africans is undernourished. In
over 19 African nations, more than a quarter of the population
goes hungry. The U.N. said 98 per cent of the world's hungry
people live in developing countries. The World Food Programme
(WFP) explained that undernourishment is "not having enough
food for an active and healthy life" and an inability to "meet
dietary energy requirements". The WFP said hunger is now the
largest risk to people's health around the world. It is a more
serious problem than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.
One of the biggest reasons for people being hungry is war. The
U.N. said developing countries that have experienced war in the
past 20 years have bigger problems feeding their people.
Scientists say
this situation could get worse because of climate
change. Hotter temperatures in more countries will mean
