More than 100 countries are holding this special event. All of these countries aim to celebrate the establishment of the FAO in 1945. A UN report says that more than 850 million people, or about one in seven around the world do not get enough food, and the need for food will increase as the worlds population grows. The UN also reports that by year 2030, the world may need 60% more food. Most of that increase will have to come from agriculture supported by water irrigation(灌溉). However, fresh water is already in short supply in many countries. Jacques Diouf, the director of the FAO, says that there are 20 countries that do not have enough water to produce enough food for their people. Ten nations use more than 40% of their total fresh water for agriculture. He fears that the problem will only become worse as the need for water by people and by industry grows.

The expression Go for it! is a way of encouraging someone to try something.Go for it ! means you should not worry about failure or be too careful. You should take a chance and be brave. Go for it! gets its name from football. But it is not the football played in most countries such as England, France or Japan, but the kind of football played in the United States and Canada. One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has failed, after three tries, to move the ball forward ten yards. The team must make a very important decision. The conservative(保守的) choice is to kick the ball and accept temporary defeat(暂时的失败) in order to get a good position for your team the next time it gets the ball. The more exciting choice, however, is to try a fourth and final time to get the remaining yards needed. People now are certain to shout their advice. Some will shout, Kick the ball! But others will encourage the team to take a chance. Go for it! they will shout loudly. In the 1980s, people began using this expression in many kinds of situations to encourage someone to act bravely. There is no guarantee（保证） that the action you Go for it! will succeed.

A very simple example is that a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in the poor countries.
