Masterpiece Progress:

I had a good conversation with my mom about my masterpiece and she thought I had a great idea and that it was very thoughtful of me to try and do this. When we were talking, one of the things she suggested is that the solution to the problem isn't shipping food to poorer nations, rather the solution should be trying to teach them how to grow food. To my knowledge, they don't know how to grow food and teaching them how to farm and harvest crops will be very beneficial to them. 

Another problem in third world countries is rapid population growth. They don't have access to birth control, and the result is having too many children, and a scarce amount of food and water to feed them. Poorer nations don't have planned parenthoods, and they also don't have the ability to get vasectomies or tubal ligations, which results in more children than families are able to raise. 

Another problem is rape. Rape is common in third world countries, and isn't taken as seriously as it is in America. There aren't police and juries to enforce the law, and many women fall victim to rape. When rape victims get pregnant, they aren't able to get an abortion, and if they try, they most likely kill themselves and the baby. 

The last problem is that the water supply is polluted most of time. Even if the people try to grow crops the water is contaminated so it makes it impossible to grow crops. 

The solution needs to be to regulate population growth, influence agriculture growth, and try to implement a clean source of drinking water.
