Check My Assignment!So much to discuss this week! Anything about agriculture, our food systems, or environmental issues. Let me know if you are not sure about an article.
Each of you will need to find a recent article (2017 or sooner) in the news connected to the topic of the unit. For this discussion, you will need to do the following:
First Post
- Write one paragraph summarizing the article
- Write one paragraph responding to the article with your own reaction/opinion/insight. This reaction should be about the topic of the article, and not the writing of the article in most instances.
- Include a full citation in MLA or another format, not just the link to the website

Agriculture:
I would like you to discuss the movie “Food Inc.”, and our modern industrial agricultural system. This movie is widely available, so I’m hoping it’s not unreasonable to ask you to find it and talk about it. I have provided a list of topics I’d like you to focus on from the movie to discuss (this will also let you participate in the discussion with some research if you can’t watch the movie). Please post one comment and one reply to a classmate. You do not need to address them all, and you are not limited by these topics:
- Genetically Modified crops and animals
- Patenting genes
- Health and our food system
- Environmental problems
- Feeding the world
- Local food movement
- CAFOs
- Food system alternatives
Please try to use evidence when you discuss your opinions, and please try not to assume. The internet is at your disposal to look things up. Please use it.
Resource Issues:
Please watch the “Story of Stuff” video: http://www.storyofstuff.org/movies-all/story-of-stuff/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
This video obviously has a bias. Do you agree with what is said in the video? Are there any points that you don’t agree with? Is there any particular point that you are glad they made? Post one comment and one reply.
