Seeing rising food prices at your local grocery store
Next time you're in your local Giant or Safeway keep this thought in mind:
The rise in prices is not only having an adverse affect on your pocket but also a negative one in achieving the MDGs.
People are getting less nutrition as food prices increase and placing pressure on the budgets of poor households, thereby undermining progress in attempts to half the population who suffer from hunger and extreme poverty. I'm not saying to you have to stop eating to make a difference, but it's worth thinking about how the rise in food prices is affecting others around the world.
