In conclusion, the data shows that there are enough food
resources to feed all of the seven billion people in the world. In that
case, the most pressing matter is to get these resources to the areas
where they are needed and then to establish systems to ensure that
nobody in the world is hungry or homeless.

Food is only one aspect of waste. The greatest waste is the weapons
made for fighting and the bombs built to devastate cities. Since love is
imprisoned in the world today, countries are arming themselves in an

insane frenzy; hatred results only in destruction and more suffering.
When waste of all manner is prevented, when mechanisms of distrib-
ution are set up for God's sake, these problems will be eradicated.

The supply of food is already avail-
able to easily feed a total of seven bil-
lion people in the world. However,
selfishness and heartlessness has
overcome justice, which is indicated
by the fact that people on one side of
the world starve to death whereas
those on the other side waste food
dreadfully.
