I will give a speech tomorrow and I want to talk about "food waste" in China. I can't accept all these things when I see there are so many food left on most restaurants' tables. I know there are many countries in history don't have enough food and war took place later. I believe if we keep waste food, people become hungry, famine come and war ensues. I write a sentence to express the idea:

I believe firmly famine comes ahead of war. So if we keep wasting food, we're just waging wars.

Is the sentence natural?
