|BRAZIL| Food Garden for Zero Hunger |

Hunger is the main factor against human health. The hunger kill much more people than HIV or Malaria. That is why, we need to do something against such a tragedy.
Brazil has a lot of land and territory. Brazil's economy is moved by agriculture. However, it is not everyone that have food into their home to give to children and to support a family. People complain a lot about government. Indeed, it is fine but complaining does not solve anything. We need to take action sometimes. Simple action can make the difference and perhaps change the perspective from a hunger view to a healthy one with a sufficient food. There was a very small area in the non-profit organization I work called Casa do Bom Menino. I intended to use that area as a improvised food garden made by useless tyres. Therefore, I did it. Children and volunteer painted the tyres and I put soil inside. Now, it is done to plant something. The idea is to plant some medical plants. =) REMEMBER: Little action can change your community and the world.

Amazing idea-to reuse/recycle old tyres , protect environment , beautify the place and sort out the problem of food shortage/hunger.Thanks for an inspiring report,Luiz.
I had also reused/recycled tyres in my own special way and turned them into coffee tables .
