I believe everyone who has the means and resources to provide help and aid whether in the form of donations or time spent working in a developing country should feel the responsibility to take action to help third world countries. There is no reason there should be starving people when there is enough food on this planet to provide for everyone. Some may argue saying there is not enough food for the earth's population, but look how much America alone wastes in restaurants and households. If we lower or portions in restaurants and donate the food abroad, we could possibly feed less fortunate people and maybe diminish obesity at the same time. The only way a country can be changed for the better, I believe, is through education though. If someone learns how to start their own business whether in agriculture, medicine, or personal services, a country can develop a strong, self-sufficient economy. Also, through education people can give meaning to their lives when they have lost hope such as in the middle east where people have lost their will to live causing people to risk their lives fighting for numerous extremists groups in the country. If everyone gives a back even if it is just a little, I think the world can be a different and better place.
