Dear Sir,
I am writing to express my views on the article No End to World Hunger in the City Times on April 28th.
To begin with, I do not agree with the writer’s claim(断言) that the world’s population will grow to ten billion by 2050. Studies have shown that families in wealthy countires have fewer children. The world’s population is unlikely to grow so much because countries around the world are becoming richer.
Secondly, it is said that we could have too little food in the future, I do not think so.With new farming technology, we might be able to grow other kinds crops. We already have new kinds of rice and cereals (谷物) that can grow more quickly and feed more people. At the same time, some scientists say that we have more than enough food in the world — it is just not shared evenly(平均地). I think that this may be true and, if it is, hunger is a problem that can be solved.
Finally, I do not think it is helpful to claim that there will be “no end to hunger”. We might not be able to solve the problem of the world hunger quickly, but there are many things that we can do. Cutting down on food waste and raising money to feed the hungry is easy enough to do.
Genrally speaking, I strongly believe there can be an end to world hunger. However, we must be ready to take actions now.
Yours faithfully,
Luks Ng
