why vegan- for world hunger 
Hunger afflicts more than a billion people worldwide, and starvation and hunger-related diseases kill 24,000 people per day, mostly children. That translates into 1 death every 2.5 seconds due to starvation. A major factor in world hunger is the waste of foodstuffs fed to animals raised for food, rather than to starving people. This was first documented in Frances Moore Lappe's 1972 classic Diet for a Small Planet and was reaffirmed at the 2002 World Food Summit in Rome.
