Please see below for classmate post:
While the global production of food is enough to feed our world’s population, the management, distribution, and accessibility of that food needs to be given special attention to ensure that people around the world have the food they need to eat and sustain healthy lifestyles.
I live in a wealthy metropolitan area where most people can get the food that they want. We have a large variety of restaurants, serving all sorts of food options. While I know many people who choose to eat a vegetarian diet, most people I know are meat eaters. Where I live, no matter what kind of food you are looking for, there is a restaurant that sells it and a grocery store where you can get the things you want to make it. We are a large enough metropolitan area that we have access to a lot of food options.
If food became scarce or inaccessible in the community where I live, it would impact us significantly because we would be forced to eat foods that were more readily available. I am personally used to a caloric intake of around 3500 calories a day. I work in a call center with about 1000 other employees, many of whom seem to be similar in their food portion sizes. We are generally an inactive group of people, so a food shortage for this community would hurt a lot and force us to eat food that was available.
