  1. I think the first goal we should do is goal number 1 which is to pay for poverty and hunger for children. I think this should be our first goal because why should you die of sickness, when you can at least you die with a full stomach.

  2. That is a very good point Kevin.My favorite goal in the millennium developmental program is goal number 8 because I think that all the countries,continent, cities and towns should all work together as a team.

  3. I think that eradicate extreme poverty and hunger is the most important millenium development goal because children can't work on an empty stomach, they NEED food to work and SURVIVE. Also, when they are really hungry, they will get extremely sick because they wouldn't have any energy and then they'll faint becuase they would have to work so we have to find a way to help them get food to survive.

  4. I think that the most important millenium goal to me is education because if you get a good education you get a paying job which means your family has clean water and food to live on.

  5. I disagree with you Emily since if you don't have enough energy from food than you can't go to school because you won't have enough energy to lean in school.

  6. That's a good point Emily but I dissagree with you because how are you going to go to school to get education if you don't have energy becuase you don't have food? CLARA :)

  8. They don't have to get the food since companies like red cross and others are delivering food to them from us so we have to provide food for red cross. Not to mention there is no school set up yet so they need the resources and the energy to make the schools. That is the is the reason why I disagree with you Emily.

  9. Good point Kevin. Emily, food banks help them get food so they can eat. It is just like how we did Halloween for Hunger, all that food went to children and family who needs it. CLARA:)

  10. Yes Clara but in countries like Pakistan and places close by the don't have proper food banks or access to food banks, because in Pakistan the place is flooded and the places close by need the food to feed themselves never mind others.

  11. Thanks Kevin for commenting back on my comment. I was talking about countries that do have proper food banks, but just thinking of the countries that don't have access to food banks, I feel really sad because it is no fair that other countries have it and they don't. CLARA :)

  12. Oh, that's what you meant. I thought you meant places that don't have reach to a food bank and needs air travel to recieve food.

  13. Emily, education is important but if you don't have food or water you can't have engry to go to school and learn. Also a person can not survive longer than seven with out water. So I think haveing water and food is the most important millenium goal.
