The FEED Bag

I don’t necessarily recommend carrying this bag to the office, but I do recommend purchasing one for shopping. It is easy to forget that malnutrition is still a major problem in the world. It kills more people than AIDS, malaria, and TB combined, ad every five seconds, a child somewhere dies of hunger. That means in the time it took you to read this post so far, one or two children died.
To help alleviate the cost of combating this problem the UN has created the FEED bag. Owning your own cloth bags for grocery shopping is already a great green option, but with each FEED bag you buy, you’re paying for meals for one child for an entire school year. When children get fed for free at school, parents are more likely to send them, so you’re promoting education as well.
