In this essay I will be arguing the large scale negative affects on the planet caused by agriculture. I'm not really sure if it will really be argumentative or informative. I'm going to be putting the facts out that everyone needs to know. Facts that most people don't know or don't care to know, I suppose I'll be arguing that people should know and care about these negative impacts agriculture is having. My arguments will cover many areas to include: deforestation, land clearing, water use, pollution, biodiversity loss, and depletion of natural resources. I believe that people today have no idea what really goes into growing or raising food, or what impacts it really has. Here's a little fun fact for you, did you know that over 40% of earths land is used for agriculture? That's more than we use for cities and all the places we live. Just try and soak that up and put it into context. Imagine it. My main focus in this essay is going to be educating and arguing that people should know these facts and be more involved in the bettering the situation.
I still need to do more research and get all the facts on all my arguments but so far I have a lot of information to put into this and I will continue to expand. This looks like it's going to be a pretty good essay. I think we will all learn a lot and have fun experiencing the sides and situations of all our classmates.
