  • Why you "Put food first"? Why not "Put Energy first"?

    Energy like oil&gas is cost of food. Countries which produce oil&gas (OPEC) are richer and richer but agriculture countries is poorer and poorer.

    Food price is higher because energy price is higher.

    So "DOES IT MAKE SENSE"

  • if only i know what's the song i will donate 200 bucks right away (:

  • what's the song please !!

  • 203,220 viewers until this time :D

  • I hate to sound like an asshole but if more people are well feed and have enough to eat, that not fixing the problem the population will just keep going and going then what? We will have to many people hungry, then probably mass famines bigger than we have experienced. Then our population will hit a peak then decline and keep declining till there's enough food for the population. Most of our food we consume isn't sustainable.

  • Boy when I was young I could buy so much more when I get nowadays

  • the facts r laid befor us- the title of this video shd b changed to- 'Put God first' n everyth will fall in plc but it is not so...

  • @yfyee001 Not unless this so-called god is a high-ranking board of OPEC! I don't think so.... It's time we start to invest & produce energy that doesn't require the use of fuel oil that's bleeding us into bankruptcy. The day we don't need their god-damned oil will be the day they will starve, not us and it will be a great day indeed! I can't wait for the high & mighty oil execs are reduced to mac & cheese for dinner!

  • Shame on you World Bank , you creates overload -population !

  • Shame on all the people telling others to educate themselves. YOU'RE the ones who carried out an argument online, and reduced yourselves to insulting other people, rather than either ignoring an opinion you didn't agree with,or just have a sense of humor and have a decent civilized conversation. Why don't all of you, educate /yourselves/, and dress up your language a little bit? What does this video have anything to do with how much all of you think you know so much better than everyone else...?

  • this would be great if the world bank actually helped people. too bad its controlled by rich countries that are trying to get richer.

  • <3 <3 

  • @PaisleyPlace damn..

  • TWB needs to block comments on this page and get rid of the wafflers...

  • @djmussy18 As true as that is, almost every girl i know has young children or is out on pregnacy leave from work here in the usa, and all talk how much they love having babies...

  • Quit talking about the political/economical side of this problem. If you want this problem to be solved, spread the word of god. He will provide you with all your needs as a said in previous comments. I am only thirteen years old and know the true solution.

  • @SPNDuPuy Well little 13yo child, I have a 14yo daughter who'd tell you as I am about to tell you: You can't rely on some invisible so-called benevolent being to fix your problems in life. You fix them yourself or, you keep living in the bullshit you created. So get off your ass & start getting a real education by paying attention in class & reading books other than Fairytales with the Happily Ever After tag in them. Own your problems & come back in 10-20yrs ~ PaisleyPlace

  • @Raynenigh; that's good at least you know how old you are.

  • @SPNDuPuy yea... really? i used to believe in god and look way happens? many people pray and pray but to no evail. go educate yourself

  • Would you change food to oil when you can import it from somewhere else? I wouldn't.

  • How many people do you know takes Mass Transit? Not many. Why you ask.. It does not take you every where your vehicle could. The waiting is another issue. Everything is about timing. No one likes to wait. You can call it lazy but the matter of fact is the REALTY. Little will change just because the mass transit is in place. Take for example San Jose, CA; San Francisco, CA; Oakland, CA and LA, CA. These are big cities and they all have mass transit...people still drives....

  • @wlen100 Blocking me? I guess I've made a painful point & blown holes in your shiity notions. It's PaisleyPlace here & I know several hundred right now who'd love mass transit, myself included. I've lived in big cities & even when I was able to drive, I took mass transit. I've taken Amtrak, various airlines & I love the fact I can sit in a lobby talking w/new people & having drinks w/o a designated driver while someone else does the driving. It's actually less stressful & many are realizing it!

  • @wlen100 You childish JACKASS! You can't stand the heat in the kitchen so you just block the person who stomps all over your shitty ideas... Oh what a learned person you are: NOT! So, here's Paisley Place letting all know just how scared you are of the truth as well as the one person who doesn't mind telling it to you without the sugar-coating to help it go down!

  • @Raynenigh; Your forgetting little girl, this is a site where people express idea; who give a damn if it right or wrong; trying NOT to get Schitzophrenic with me. Try to get off of your meth before getting on line. Besides, who the held block your ass. Are you that important that I have to do it. Give me a break you uneducated moron.

  • @wlen100 I don't need your crack-head pipe. I get my high off life. It's called having a wonderful family, a terrific college education w/multiple degrees, & having the gr8 fortune to accept or turn down work as well as telecommute from home where I don't have to relocate from one of the greatest school districts for our children, oldest grown, married, & started on her 4th degree this fall! My world is great. I give back & have friends in congress where I share thoughts & they listen!

  • @wlen : This is PaisleyplaceISback aka Raynenigh; it seems you can't take the heat in the kitchen so you shut OUT and BLOCK anyone who makes you look like the fool you are. If you weren't afraid, you wouldn't block the posters. I gather there are many others who made a fool out of you too as we've had some long interesting conversations about your lack of self-esteem. It's funny & sad. Get therapy b/c you need it! I council students & recognize the signs; you've got them all!

  • @PaisleyplaceISback ; and you're Not. THEN GO RUN FOR OFFICE OR SOMETHING INSTEAD OF WASTING TIME BULSHITTING ABOUT SOMETHING YOU DON'T KNOW.

  • To many people, US government is meddling in other people problem. But have you every think what would happen if they don't? How do you know that there are no other intention? Sometime what seems small to us is not to the government. Oil is one commodity that we can't live without, unless anyone can come up with a better idea to run the machine that America already have out there on the road.

  • @wlen100 Well, we know combustion engines can run on corn liquor; engines can be modified to run on oils from vats used at restaurants (a major coffee roaster co not far from where I live delivers their coffee beans all over 3 counties on a van that runs on vat oil from restaurants & the oil is given freely b/c otherwise it's waste to them & they don't have to pay to have it hauled off. Other ideas are out there. It's a matter of implementing them. Too few will change their vehicles for it!

  • @wlen100 It comes from laziness & the unwillingness to change b/c it means they might actually have to do a little work or convert their vehicles so they can't run 100+mph. If we'd convert most every town to mass transit, you'd see a major drop in our need for oil as long as the mass transit used "green" technology. But no, Americans love their cars too much, more than their lives or the future of this planet or civilization itself. They're lazy!

  • I'm sorry you feel that way, but if you think about it. It is your right to VOTE. But again, if you don't vote then you don't have the right to complaint.

  • Great video

  • It's sad to regard overpopulation as a problem of perception. If 1 billion go to bed hungry, then if we were 1 billion less, less of us would be hungry. You can argue all you want and be in denial about the overpopulation problem, problem that we humans have caused and keep causing based upon selfishness, religious beliefs or sheer ignorance. It's simple math, not logistics. Poor communication ways, overproduction in certain areas and so forth have always been a constant.

  • -- thailand, phillipines, and more. Lets not forget about how the heads of the world bank and imf(international monetary fund) destroyed south america in the 60's.

  • I cant believe the world bank has the nerve to even front that it wants to help the world. All they do is try to find nations who are in dire need of help and if they cant find these nations, they try to put them in this kind of position where then the country will come them for loans. Then they put conditions on these countries which favor them and their pimps(corporations), which causes immense amount of suffering for the people of that country. For example, indonesia, --

  • Stupidity = Poison

    Ignorant = Suppressor

    Knowledge = Antidote

  • da best text animation!

    

  • Hey all caps wall of text writers: No one's going to read your comment JUST BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE THIS. You want to change something? Be the change you want to see. Just because you think you know everything and you think you've heard it all doesn't change the fact that while some people are out trying to help out our fellow humans, ALL YOU CAN DO IS BITCH AND WHINE AND POINT FINGERS OVER A COMPUTER LIKE A SISSY.

  • @TheFanaticalSorcerer - No response? Then let that be a lesson.

    A sharp tongue and a bad attitude are no match being well-informed about your own cause. You seem more interested in finger-wagging than our food crisis.

    And that's a waste, because someone of your passion could do some real good if you weren't so childish and off-putting about it. You'll understand when you're older, but for now you can consider our little dialog closed.

  • @DigiTan000 Sorry about that. I don't check my youtube everyday.

    you don't know how old I am, and you don't know what I know, obviously.

    It's people like you that put population control on china (one child per couple), which causes women to be sterilized. Also, it causes tons of forced abortions and child poisonings.

    That's sick.

  • True

  • @AmuletxHeartx This problem is not to be analyzed on a country-by-country basis. Neither it is a problem of rich countries, where you find families with 5+ children, nor a problem of poor countries, where the same happens. Hunger, global warming, pollution, amongst others, are problems of global nature and it is our responsibility, as their cause, to solve them. We have to reproduce LESS in every country. The planet cannot absorb all our dump, feed us, produce clean water and air simultaneously

  • @templario10 THANK YOU!

  • @templario10 It could feed everyone enough, but with the lack of good communication and surplus in centralized areas, other areas are left out. I disagree with reproducing less, but I do agree to the fact we don't own up to the consequences of our actions.

  • I cried...

  • @TheFanaticalSorcerer yes because i can't even watch content. idiot

  • @ERK77VI check the title and description. instead of complaining about something so shallwoel

  • From now on I will ship my unwanted food to africa... Hold on they don't even have a postal service. A country should help itself before others can!

  • Lol to u ppl leaving long posts that one reads

  • minimum 5gallon clean safe drinking water /day/ person. minimum 12 foot by 12 foot personal indoor garden per person.

  • @osiud Keep your fingers wrapped around your genitalia & save me the need to school you

  • how can someone dislike this video? ..

  • How has worldbank helped????...maybe your org is one of the reasons there are so many poor people ?

  • NOBODY WANTS YOUR SHITTY LOANS

    PLEASE, LEAVE THOSE COUNTRIES ALONE

    MONEY SOLVES PROBLEMS? NO

    These countries need to be educated in Math, Science, Art, and Philosophy.

    Then they will be able to prosper through economic sovereignty.

    The US and other states must respect the economic sovereignty of the developing state while it grows.

    The US must soon become what it was intended to be: The freest and most just nation on Earth.There is no choice.

    READ AND RESPECT THE U.S. CONSTITUTON.

  • Food Price is in correlation to oil and gas price. modern farming methods have very bad effects on the environment, and then the extreme weather of climate change. The video is well made and makes some good points, but a lot of the suggestions seem to be counter productive. Also, by "opening the market" does it mean free trade? in which case poor countries end up buying food from richer countries and then there is even more money pumped out from the poor and into the rich. eg the NAFTA and Haiti

  • End WALL STREET, AND THE BLOOD SUCKING WORLD BANK.

  • Evolution's greatest mistake was to make pro-creation an aftermath of fornication.

  • the world at its current state is on the brink of ww3, the end, we have the pefect concoction : debt, low resources, religious wars, terrorists, poverty, angry people, money, poor people, soaring gas prices, over patriotism. Y2K has already hit us, things are only going to get worse from this point on. prepare!

  • Comment removed

  • THE ILLUMINATI IS BEHIND ALL OF THE HUNGER+ RISE IN PRICE IN FOOD+ ECONOMY....ITS ALL APART OF THEIR PLAN....THEY WANT TO DEPOPULATE THE WORLD BY BILLIONS.

  • And hundreds of thousands of restaurants in the world throw food in the garbage every day, we have food for many millions of people but human greed is the problem.

  • you cant send these people food if you do they havemore kids and need more food.send condoms or birthcontrol pills they are also not my problem .we will go to war over food one day

  • The food shortage is an artificially created shortage, based mostly on greed. In America alone, we have a ton of unfarmed land that could be farmed productively. The government actually pays farmers subsidies to grow less food. Let's get greed and politics out of food production, and then there will be enough food for everyone.

  • @Teamnipple The world is already producing enough food to feed12Billion people(UN)yet there are only7Billion, and Yet40Million humans die of starvation a year bc they dnt have enough capital.TheWest needs to stop paying hunger wages to third world for profit maxim!It is quite fucking simple stop stealing resources and extorting the workers of this world.Worker controlled production and a sovereign democratically controlled economy is the way to solve these global capitalistproblems.Socialism

  • Darwinism at work. ^__________^

  • @rwehappy2day The world is already producing enough food to feed12Billion people(UN)yet there are only7Billion, and Yet 40Million humans die of starvation a year, bc. they dnt have enough capital.The West needs to stop paying hunger wages to third world for profit maxim.!It is quite fucking simple stop stealing resources and extorting the workers of this world.Worker controlled production and a sovereign democratically controlled economy is the way to solve these global capitalist problems.

  • look how lucky this guy is!!. he has a "BED" good for him!!.. Thousands of people doesn't have any bed to sleep on and food to eat! ..

  • Wow! The Anti-christ wants to feed us ALL after taking away all our jobs, money and individual independant monetary systems, our homes, our tax revenues, our individual soveignity as frees nations etc.. You guys and the NWO can go to to hell! I'd rather starve now than put up with the crap you rich bastards have done here to the working poor of this great nation!!!

  • *sigh* the problem is that we are more focused on the political bullshit. We need to focus on the people first

  • you are never actually free until you are not dependent upon others to survive.

  • ABOLISH THE CENTRAL BANKS!

  • Lets start cloning food asap!! or figure out how to make really big like on Cloudy with a chance of meatballs!

  • @imaD3ALER they have technology like that already. look it up

  • interesting

  • @jgonzalezsolorio Read a book American... if your country were, and if Obama were, communist or socialist YOU WOULD NOT HAVE 40 MILLION UNEMPLOYED!!!!

  • The West needs to stop paying hunger wages to third world! Fuck, it is quite fucking simple, stop stealing and extorting the workers of this world. Worker controlled production and a sovereign controlled economy is the way to solve these capitalist globalist problems, socialism.

  • fgdfgfdgdg

  • We need Sovereign Democratic Control over our national Corporations that steal resources and pay hunger wages to the third world!

  • Food stamps.. Seems to help.. And its just healthy food that's expensive. I seen a box of donuts at WalMart for like 2 bucks that could be eaten for a couple days ration and portion control.

  • @halberdaj government refuses to subsidize healthy food.. but subs all the junk .. i mean wtf is going on 

  • Western Corporations need to be Stopped stealing resource from the third world!

  • @truckletchimera Your mentality is ugly and gruesome.

  • @TheScottyjoy22 thank you thank you i came here from /b/ ughahahahahaha

  • Typical liberal bullshit -as usual ignoring the real causes of poverty and hunger because of the Left's mindless devotion to idiotic concepts like cultural equivalence. Let's grow a pair, get real, and blame socialism, dictatorship, corruption, tribalism, Islam and other false religions, primitive traditions, essentially any inferior culture's "failure to launch" for the last century or so. The solution? Democracy, Capitalism, Freedom and Christianity of course. Disagree? Fine. Stay poor.

  • @horselips Blame socialism (Obama), dictatorship (every President since Johnson [who, was part of Kennedy's obliteration, with the aid of the insider and anti-Christ, George H.W. Bush]), corruption (same as dictatorship), tribalism (tribe of Zionist elitists, not reporting to the American people, but to the Zionist order behind the World Bank, IMF, The Fed, etc.), false religions/primitive traditions (forgot Christianity on that list). We've been Israel's lapdog for ages, & Obama's a puppet.

  • @jgonzalezsolorio the only thing worse than a religious nut, is an anti-religious nut

  • We need to protest for democratization and sovereign control over industry and Banks, this is called Socialism!

  • The problem is Institutions like the world bank to dumb fucking trendy little socialists!!

  • More government brainwashing....

  • Not only food prices are going up, but the size of products are shrinking! Greedy capitolist pigs!!! How do they sleep at night?!

  • @SgtBastard101 Let me beg to differ. You have your terms mixed up. Capitalism isn't the problem, we havent had capitalsim for some time. It's government colusion with Oligarchs that's the problem. Free market capitalism is the solution.

  • @kopenu I'm guessing you didn't catch my sarcasm. Then again, someone who can't properly use grammar wouldn't have either. Don't reply. Just go away troll.

  • @0past Totally true according to my reading. How are you aware of this?

  • im so full

  • Feeding the worlds hungry only furthers the problem. What will solve hunger is birth control. Less people to feed = more food. These people need birth control in the form of condoms, medication, surgical sterilization and most importantly.. EDUCATION. I guess it doesn't sink in that when they have kids, they will just die.

  • i wonder if epic meal time has seen this video

  • @benny332 epicmealtime > world hunger

  • There wouldnt be any poverty if parents would just take care of their selves and their responsibilities before having kids at such young ages.Even if you are raised poor , you still have education which is the best way to turn your life around.

  • Part of the problem is hedge funds. They are basically a legal way for the rich to steal from the poor.

    Hedge funds are scalpers. They buy the ticket before you and ask for more than the market price.

    BUT in the case of food and gasoline, they buy people's food and force the price upward.

    It is a humanitarian disgrace that the rich will rob from the poor this way, but this is the world we are born into. 

  • the world is heartless. just read the comments.

  • What? Farming is more efficient than its ever been. Poor Americans are known as the fattest poor people in the world. How can we invest in agriculture if we have to spend our money paying off this huge debt? This isn't probable. You can't throw money at this problem. The world needs to run its cycle. Let the hungry do there thing(probably die) and the food sources will actually fit the amount of people needing food.

  • @Bears0054 how about we get people to stop having kids till they are oh i dunno 25 to 30.

  • @deadcool1000 poor nations have the highest birth rates. The United States is starting to show families on average having one or two children. These poor nations have too many mouths to feed. I guess we can throw condoms at them. It could work...

  • @Bears0054 uh huh how about those teenagers who are having kids between the age of 13 to 18 and families now are consisting of single parents which mostly are women.

  • @deadcool1000 Your point? Teens have been having children since the beginning of time. That isn't a new figure. Thats the news trying to get a story. Single parent families dont mean anything either. Its societies acceptance of divorce. If anything, its lowering the amount of children in each "family." The numbers have been dropping drastically. Also making a problem for social welfare in the future but that'll be a new problem for future videos with celebrities complaining.

  • BS instead of giving people in africa medications or bed nets, we should give them condoms.

  • @osiud feed 100 people how? propose a solution? how am I a dumbass when you're on a comp too posting useless garbage, what a fucktard...

  • @TeamNipple why is your name teamnipple?

    

  • @celibacyisgreat YOU'RE A GENIUS. How did I not see that?? Masturbation is killing us all.

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 Thats because these two idiots think life revolves around Halo and call of duty!

  • the more people there are, the more food we need. THE MORE FARMERS WE NEED!!!!

  • @gamezonic we dont have the land requirements for that. unless you wanna plow the Sahara desert into the ocean.

  • @deadcool1000 I know that. Look what they are doing in China because they need more farm areas.

  • @gamezonic i know and its sad. what we should do is vertical farm.

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 don't rage noob, it is ok , it is because we are smarter than you, besides we control you :)

  • With all the rich people out there, it really is a shame so MANY people go to bed hungry, and spend most of their life working towards one goal, food.... Rich people can buy 1 less watch, and feed tons of people, 1 less house, feed thousands of people, 1 less CRUISE SHIP... feed millions...

  • END THE FED

    END THE WORLD BANK

  • all of you should just go back to watching your tv's and let your big brother take care of you , we have everything under control, so run along little sheep be good little babies and let us somebodies take care of things :)

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 i have to agree with that but most people tell you that your never ready, but then again they are the ones that have a dysfunctional family or beat their kids and wife.

  • youtube is sad , why use bitter soup for healing when the sun rises and creates all living possible for us . what would the sun say in this youtube thread?

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 don't rage noob no need to, your kind will soon be dead and buried along with the rest of you nobodies

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 i'm not having kids ever. i rather have a pet instead. after watching one sister scream and beat her kids all the damn time to the other sister not shut her legs and ignore the four kids she got to go fuck and have a 5th one.

  • I would of liked to absorb this message, as much as I'd like to absorb any other random message on Youtube, but alas. My internet connection seems to suck shit and I have nary the patience to wait on a 240p video to load for 10 minutes.

  • The Rent is too damn High.

    The Food is too damn Expensive

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 we can nuke whomever we want , it is just a game to us :)

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 You know these guys are just a couple of Halo playing looser 14 year old's right?

  • @invadergir2011 no but i know you're a good for nothing welfare leech who lives off others hard earned taxes cause you are too lazy to work

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 we can nuke random people, that is what makes us better than you :)

  • i might get hate mail for this. but i think we should do to humans what we do to animals in the pound. one child per family should be in effect like it is in china. no matter if its boy or girl that should be all you get period.

    too many teenagers are having kids.and you know what none of them are on birth control because you cant get it till your 18. a couples of years back there was a 13 year old who had a kid. that shit should not happen.

  • @deadcool1000 and we should kill off some of the worlds population starting with the have nots

  • @forgemetal1 you know that will happen sooner or later. there are lists out there already of who will live and who will die until there are only 1 million people that will be controlled for the rest of their life.

  • @deadcool1000 i know i helped put those lists together :)

  • @Aniimalia 2 dollar sucky sucky ?

  • @Aniimalia U mad? awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwww  poooor baby gonna get mad at some comment on the internet LuLz

  • @TheFlamingAzn1 oh well , sure we can nuke who ever we want , fuck them lazy fucking leeches

  • @forgemetal1 so you want a nuclear holocaust where the entire earth  is unlivable?

  • @deadcool1000 no i want the lazy and the leeching parasites dead so the rest of us can prosper

  • People who continue to have children they know will starve to death should be put to death themselves for the cruelty they inflict upon those children

  • damn. reading comments are interesting.

  • you want to help them now until there are 10+ billion people on earth

  • lets not forget what monsanto does to farmers and farming. they create a wonderful seed then bankrupt you with it or sue you till you are. very dangerous company.

  • @osiud Actually I own my own computer and I'm not in a library. And taxes? the way you talk you sound like your still in Diapers, Don't you have some nerd game to play? HALO maybe? Listen have you mommy heat up your bottle and have her take you to bed I think your getting cranky. Besides don't you have school tommorrow?

  • Every second 3 children die of starvation....WTF...starvation­...just give them something for goodness sake....and its prevented....Starvation can be prevented..

  • @osiud Because I worked for it. Meaning unlike you I didn't sit at home yelling at my mom for hot pockets, I worked. And by the way, I'm not in a tent anymore because I'm unlike the people your bitching about got out of the tent and even though I'm on S.S.I I'm actually doing things in my life. I may have lost material bullshit but not hope and ambition! Which is something you lack! Kinda like you lack brain cells!

  • damn republicans

    

  • @osiud Wow with a mouth like that no wonder your not in College.

  • @osiud So I can piss fuckheads like you off!

  • @osiud Again, quite confusing what you do for a living with what Ido for a living. The only "work" that goes on in my bedroom for 25+yrs has been with my husband a I don't consider that "work" It's called love. Our oldest daughter shared rent w/friends her 2-3rd yr of college so her room is now an office, not a bedroom you moron! You're just proving what a troll you are & how you can't manage to entertain yourself. Try high school b/c you've obviously never graduated.

  • @GhettoGinny So youre saying its those peoples fault that they got layed off because their possition was replaced by machienes or even just ommited, and the position they spent so much time in school for is out of practice. or it's their fault that those positions have been filled by people like them. Do you really think they don't try as hard as they can to find good paying jobs to support their families? Who are you to say they have no right to exist, cause with talk like that you don't either

  • OPEN TRADE is the solution??

    the developed country will flooding the 3rd world country with food, and make the farmer in the 3rd world country POOR!

    The company like MONSANTO should sell their hybrid seeds in a cheaper price.

  • @GhettoGinny hey dumb ass we are still in a recession over a million people still dont have jobs in this country. and more robots are replacing the human work force. so stfu about getting a job.

  • @deadcool1000 hey dude can u explain me about this thing that its named economic crissis pleasE?¿ whats happening with the ppl that live in the US what are the common things that are felt dialy??? thanx in advance

  • If meat consumption was cut by half in the USA alone, it would be enough to end world hunger

  • @PeaceMotherLover

    Ehhrm....

    Care to elaborate or where you joking?
