All of the food that's thrown away. They are not starving due to the lack of money but rather due to the invention of money... You do not NEED Money. It is nothing but a product of which we accept as Payment/Trade,etc. For another Product. It is Greed, not the 'invention' of money. Money is simply the most trad-able commodity, a tomatoe farmer isnt going to drive around town bartering his tomatoes for things like tv's and shoes and stuff, sure in small quantities he might be able to barter his tomatoes for his next meal, but he cannot keep them to amass enough wealth to build a house for his family, they would go rotten, and so he instead sells his produce for money which other than by inflation never rots away.
GREED is one of the key reasons why people especially in Africa starve. Distribution is a major problem. Civil wars are one of the major causes of starvation on this planet. Yes, greed makes the world go 'round. We could have free electricity, but that will never happen. Food for everyone? Fuggadaboutit. How could we keep money in control of the world? Problem is supply and demand. If there is food produced for only what the population is then prices will go up and less can afford to eat. So want people to afford food? Produce more. If one is unable to see to perceive all the impacts of their actions how can that be considered greed? This is exactly it. If you cannot fully understand the impact of your actions, put no effort to see things in a wider perspective but you are still driven to achieve your goals regardless of consequences, this is greed. The problem is people stopped caring and developed greed.
This suggest that a world population of 12-billion people is reasonable, a view of pro-natalist. The production of this amout of food is rapidly depleting this planet's resources which also involves a massive use of fossil fuels which is dumping massive quantities of carbon into the atmosphere which is rapidly destroying the planet's life support systems. When will humans evolve to see the connections? There are other sources of free energy out there to replace oil and fossil fuels there is this things called greed that keeps this world from evolving for the better.
We're also using it to feed cattle we slaughter. Then we have to deal with feces and urine pollution not to mention cruelty to animals!
