You may wonder how desperately we Sneed such initiatives. The answer is simple - because we produce enough food to feed everyone, yet one in nine people goes to sleep hungry every night and one-third of food produced for human consump- tion is lost or goes to waste. This is why this campaign to stop wastage of food by the United Nations World Food Program (WFP) is a call out of necessity, concern and fear of this human attitude that can and will eliminate the natural resources we need for survival on Planet Earth. This is why I believe such a move needs support and action. When we were young at school, we were taught about the food chain, which represents a series in which food and energy are transferred from one organ- ism in an ecosystem to another. The food chain clearly shows us how energy is passed from the sun to plants and animals and eventually to us humans. I am not a scientist, but I believe that working to preserve the earth’s natural resources must begin by Kuwait’s sky is orange during sunset with a view of Liberation Tower in the background.
