13、ng, listeners. Today is World Food Day, and David Bond from the UNs FAO is here to talk to us about world hunger. Welcome, David! Please explain what the FAO is and what its aims are.Good morning. For those who dont know, FAO stands for Food and Agriculture Organisation. And our aim is simple to eli

14、minate world hunger, which, according to our latest figures, stands at around 11% of the worlds population. So I guess things like droughts, floods, and climate change are all major factors in this.Yes, thats right, they can all seriously affect crop production. And another factor is poverty. There

15、is strong evidence to suggest that many people just cant afford to eat well. And its not just about having enough food to eat; people need to eat enough nutritious food, which often they cannot afford or do not have access to. The FAO believes everyone should have the right to healthy food.And what

16、about war? Ive seen many researchers say that it directly leads to mass hunger. Absolutely true. Our research indicates that wars can heavily affect food production and transportation, meaning that millions of people have to go hungry.So what can we do to alleviate world hunger?Well, the UN is makin

17、g efforts to reduce climate change, and the FAO runs a project called Climate-Smart Agriculture, which helps countries to develop sustainable agriculture. However, every country needs to focus on making new achievements in agriculture, too, which can often benefit the whole world. Like China, for ex

18、ample, whose development of hybrid rice has greatly increased rice production in many other countries. And, of course, global conflict must be eliminated. And dont forget that we as individuals can also make a difference: buy food that supports the environment, and never waste food.David Bond, thank
