I do not knowingly kill any living thing - including insects or rodents - and I thank my food for sustaining me.
I first got involved with ending world hunger and I got hip to the facts about it - what a huge problem it was and how it wasn't a matter of not having food or not knowing how to end it but it was a matter of creating the political will.
