The Unsung Heroes Fighting Malnutrition | Shruthi Baskaran-Makanju | TED

The pastoralists in Africa sustainably produce meat and milk to help feed the continent. But their way of life - and work - is under threat. Food systems advocate Shruthi Baskaran-Makanju explains how best to preserve these vital communities and why they're key to solving the nutritional challenges of Africa's children.

    The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) says about 33% of food is lost or wasted worldwide, about 1.3 billion tons per year, while 783 million people suffer chronic hunger. 💕☮🌎🌌

    Hooray!!!!! It's high time someone saw the light. Thank you so much. The West only ever send Africa grain and it's done them no good at all. It does us no good either.

    We should never have allowed the world to turn to grain manufactured oils. Can you imagine how much land it uses to grow that stuff and the enormous amount of water that's dragged up from a couple of miles underground to water those sunflowers etc.? That land was stolen from the cattle.

    Malnutrition is running rampant all over Asia, Africa, and in other continents. But mostly in Asia and Africa that's a common issue that still has to be addressed consecutively.

    If we are to contribute something good, it is a bit weak if it is to be at the expense of the lives and suffering of other beings. I guess it's not about limiting goodness to one species, race or nation, at least that's how I understand it :)

    The problem is they are letting their animals run rampant leading to overgrazing and destroying the soil leading to desertification. They need the right education on how to manag their land and livestock.

    God loves you and takes care of you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this great universe and has complete control over it. And the greatest loss that a person loses in this life is that he lives while he does not know God who created him, knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. The great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and then you have the choice to believe in it or not. I advise you on this now before you do not have time to do that.
