Time to bite back!

Welcome to "hunger bytes! " The international video competition for inspired filmmakers - hosted by the World Food Programme, in partnership with YouTube. Starting October 16, filmmakers around the world are invited to submit short videos about hunger.

This year the world is reaching an historic milestone and not a good one. By the end of 2009, over 1 billion people will be suffering from hunger. In a world of 6.8 billion, that means 1 out of 7 people will soon be undernourished. Every day, 14,000 children die of hunger-related causes or to put it another way one child dies of hunger every six seconds

Acceptable? We dont think so

Make some noise, make a video, tell others about this!
