UN says largest humanitarian crisis since 1945

We're producing enough food to feed the world several times over. We throw it away and have nothing more than a saturated belch to adress famine riddled regions. That's not to say there's an easy solution to the problem. But there is a solution if one were to employ some brain power. It's in our own interest after all, since if we want to keep these masses from our shores, we better make sure they're not starving in their countries of origin.
