Summary, Analysis, Response Essay



Hello everyone!

I’ve chosen to write this essay on the demand for food. Yes that’s right FOOD! The reason I chose this topic is because it’s relation to agriculture. The demand for food has become the leading cause of climate change, biodiversity loss or extinction and environmental destruction. For those of you who don’t know what biodiversity loss is; it’s the endangerment or complete extinction of a natural or native species in an area. This topic is in relation to another problem we face in the world today and that’s population growth; population growth drives agriculture. I chose this topic because it’s a HUGE issue facing the world now and our future generations. I know a few things about this topic, just from my own dabbling and research. One thing being that we’re drying up rivers, lakes, and freshwater seas just so we can grow all the food needed for the people on this planet. So if these sources are drying up and disappearing, where do you think you’re next bottle of water’s going to come from? Food for thought
.
This topic really intrigues me. I’m one of those people that are full of random information, and I like to watch documentaries and shows I can learn from.  I feel that I’m that type of person for a reason.  I feel that if I have this knowledge I can spread the facts to people who otherwise might be oblivious. I hope to learn as much as possible from this essay and research so that I can inform people here and there on what we’re doing to the ONLY planet we have to live on. I hope that I’ll be able to educate them on the subjects in hopes that they’ll make better choices or chose to get involved in formulation a solution to the problem.

I don’t know about you, but I for one worry about the future of everyone and especially the planet. After all it’s the only one you’ve got!
