FOOD AT PRESENT

OA a VOŠE TáborCZECH REPUBLIC

• All over the world is big unevenness. In some countries people waste food. In other they have nothing to eat. We should save more food and split it fairly. Wasting food is bad.

• Many people all over the world suffer fromhunger. In our country some people too. They are homeless or abused children. But in our country is it still good – for example in Africa is it much worse. We should be glad.

• Everyone has the right to food, but he can buyit only if he has money. But some people don’t have it. And it’s the problem, there should bepossibilities for people to either earn moneyor grow their own food everywhere in theworld.

FAST FOOD MANIA

• At present there are a lot of fast foods

• It‘s not nutricious and people should know it

• But they have little time and do not realizethat it‘s not healthy

• It´s easier to get fast food than cookhomemade meals from KM 0 ingredients

FOOD HELPS

The project in the Czech Republic is called Potraviny pomáhají (Food helps). They try to help in many ways, but the main thing is a huge food donation during October that happens every year. In 2013 they collected over 55,5 tons of food from people and another 10,5 tons of food from companies, making over 66 tons offood in total! Ordinary people can donatefood in supermarkets during the main collection day –which was Saturday, November 22, 2014 last year. The result is amazing 173 tons, much more thanthe year before. Volunteers and celebrities help in collecting food in supermarkets. The food is distributed to people in need (from children to pensioners).

And what kinds of food do people donate? The long lasting ones, like:Rice, sugar, cooking oil, sweets for children, pasta, flour, legumes, canned food, tea, juice and much more.

Donated food is stored at „Food banks“ = associations of people who agreed to take part in this project. Then food is divided further to organisations who help peole in need.

FAIR TRADEFair trade. It´s the way of support farmers and craftsmen from developing countries through organizations that try to ensure proper treatment and fair prices to people from developing countries is Asia, Africa and Latin America.It’s pretty much about helping them to sell things they grow (so, food) for proper amount of money and not get ripped off. People in Fair trade program also try not to use chemicals if not needed to protect nature and environment. They also work in decent conditions and child work is forbidden.Goods from those people are sold all around world in specialized shops. You can also see the Fair trade mark on the wrapping. And you know from where did that…something you bought came from.Price are similar to normal goods. Fair Trade goods can be bought also in Czech town supermarkets and chemists or in some restaurants.
