Ellen Gustafson is a Co-founder of FEED and creator of The 30 Project. She had a speech because she is trying to change the way the world eats. After watching the Ellen Gustafson’s speech, I was shocked about the hunger and obesity. The number of people who are with starvation and overeating are increasing. Both of them are extremely different problems, but both of them are increasing rapidly. Through mentioning about America and Africa’s lifestyles, I could noticed about how different they are. Therefore, when Ellen Gustafson was talking about these two issues, I was surprised about the reality.
In the Ellen Gustafson’s speech, she mentioned about different lifestyles between Africa and America. Of course there are hungers in America but for America, the main problem is about obesity. She was saying that the hunger and obesity are caused by the agriculture. For example, in America, the scale of agricultural system is very huge and interesting. In addition, it is directly related to the human’s food. In contrast, in Africa, the scale of agriculture is totally different from America. Because of those things, the gap of obesity and hunger are growing. When I think about two problems, I just think that two countries need to share foods and reduce those problems. When I compare to our country, our problem is similar to America. Because people are hard-working, they usually eat fast food.
As we can see in her speech, she mentioned about selling Feeding Bags or Feeding system which are for people who usually skip meals. People who volunteered to help poor people, they offer food for poor people. When we buy just a feeding bag, it means we can offer one child’s food for a year and the bag only costs about $20 to $50. It tells that only a little amount of money can save people’s lives.
After watching this speech, I realized that I need to save my allowance and donate for poor people. Although I think it would not be a big help for them, unless they can have meals three times a day. As I am in a community service in school, in a community service, we offer meals to 100 children once a week. On the other hand for obesity, people just need to reduce eating fast food and unhealthy food. Through this speech, I could learn lots of lessons and I could know the purpose of Ellen Gustafson’s speech. It motivates me to work hard in a community service.
