67 people, including 35 children and 22 women, were trampled to death in three separate stampedes that ensued in Nigeria as desperate crowds struggled to get their hands on a bag or two of groceries being distributed at Christmas charity events.
“Never before have there been so many people in Nigeria without food,” the UN World Food Program (WFP) stated in November 2024, noting that 25 million needed aid. UN agencies warned this number will increase in 2025 to 33 million, including 16 million children.
Meanwhile in the EU alone over 59 million tonnes of food are wasted each year.
What a gruesome world we live in.
Not to mention that we’re also able to grow enough food to feed 70 Billion animals, not because we need to do that to survive but just because we think it tastes better
