Overview
- There is enough food on Earth to feed the entire population.
- The main reason ~10% of the world’s population is undernourished is due to poverty.
- Adopting the Legal Principle is the best way to combat poverty.
Impact on hunger from adopting the Legal Principle
- Aligning all laws globally with the Legal Principle would significantly reduce poverty by lowering the costs and complexities of life.
- This is offset by the Legal Principle outlawing significant pollution. The food industry is one of the biggest polluters globally, so eliminating this pollution would increase the cost of food.
- We should also be charitable to those who are less fortunate than we are.
