WAR AND HUNGER

WARS AND MILITARY EXPENDITURE

Between 1995 and 2004, world military spending increased by 23% Today (2006) amounted to 1.035 billion dollars. The military expenditure of NATO covers 69.9% of military expenditure Worldwide .......! Iran, Syria, Sudan, Libya, North Korea, Yemen, Cuba, military spending, all together, do not exceed '1.5% of world total.

The U.S. in 2004 have invested in military spending of 455 billion dollar re covering from just 46% of world spending.

Every citizen of this country has spent a year for this "madness", well $ 1,533, the British the French 748 761, etc..

And in Italy, what happens in this area? That is, in a country where there is written in its Constitution that is against the War:

Article 11.
Italy repudiates war as an instrument of aggression against the freedom of other peoples and as a means of settling international disputes allows, on an equal footing with other states, the limitations of sovereignty necessary for an order that ensures peace and justice between nations, promotes and encourages international organizations having such ends.

1st) the annual average of every Italian citizen for military spending was € 478.00 in 2004 compared to € 411.00 per year to the citizens of Germany and € 332.00 / year citizen Japanese.

2 °) In Italy the sector richer and is constantly expanding arms exports: 1,263 in 1998. 2,350 in 2003.

fact Italy in the period 2000/2004 was the 11th country in the world arms exports, but is actually the second largest producer of weapons known as "read" ...!

in the world by large industrial groups in the arms sector are (the first 10) all concentrated in Western countries: 6 in the U.S., 1 French, 1 in England, the rest of the European Consortium. In 10th place is situated our Finmeccanica with a turnover of approximately one trillion dollars (2004). Its main production, for at least 60%, is related to weapons.

Ranking for military spending:
1. United States with 455 billion dollars to cover only 47% of the world.
2. Britain with a military spending, which accounts for nearly one tenth of the U.S.: 47.4 billion dollars.
3. France (46.2 billion dollars)
4. Japan (42.4 billion)
5. China (35.4 billion)
6. Germany (33.9 billion)
7. Italy 27.8 billion dollars
8. Russia (19.4 billion dollars)
9. Saudi Arabia (19.3 billion dollars)
10. Canada (10.6 billion dollars)

FAME: THE ROOTS OF THE PROBLEM

The food crises and emergencies follow each other repeatedly in spite of our planet today produce food enough to feed the entire world population.

In January 2006, the countries at risk of famine were 45, too many to close their eyes and continue in a guilty inertia.

Reasons triggers vary, but the causes and bottom are always the same: prolonged drought, conflict, lack of basic inputs, poor infrastructure, illiteracy, disease, and of course the general economic weakness.

In the fight against hunger and poverty, some progress has been made and, between 1970 and 1990, the percentage of undernourished people has fallen significantly from 37% to 17%

However, these successes have been partly by the increase in world population data over the same period almost doubled from 3.6 billion in 1970 to over 6 billion in 2000. And on increasing world population projections are not encouraging. By 2050 it is expected that world population will rise to 9 billion. This means that there will be 2.5 billion more people who will need food.

With over 850 million people who already suffer from chronic hunger, to feed this increased population and reducing hunger will only be possible if you are able to dramatically increase agricultural productivity.

CENTRALITY THE 'OF' AGRICULTURE

The statistics say it clearly: over 70% of people suffering from hunger live in rural areas countries in the developing world.
Here you will find the majority of the 11 million children that die of tto know of five years or 121 million that never went to school. It is therefore in the agricultural and rural development that need to invest, this is where you must take if we want to go to the root of the problem.
Output growth will depend very much on investment will be made to operate in a more efficient and rational water resources.

In Africa, only 7% of the arable land is irrigated, and this figure drops dramatically to 4% in countries in sub-Saharan Africa, in contrast to 38% in Asia. Drought is one of the causes that underlie almost all humanitarian crises. This situation could change if only there was political will.

Africa is using it less than 6% of its renewable water resources, as opposed to 20% in Asia.

The report of the Commission for Africa, launched in March 2005, estimated that 2 billion dollars in annual investment could double the irrigated areas in Africa.Ciò However, during the years 1989/2000 the volume of aid for international agriculture has declined substantially from $ 21 billion in 1989 to some 12 billion in real terms in 2000.
