SCIE-210 DB

Posted at 14:54h in 2013/9/4 by

For our Unit 2 DB we will consider where our food comes from. Last week we talked about sustainability and saw that on Easter Island, the people had to depend only on the food they could grow or harvest from the island itself or the surrounding waters. Today, we get food from all over the world. Consider how hard it would be for me in Connecticut to have food all winter long if we did not trade food from state to state or country to country. Some of you in California or Florida may have a much stronger food supply — though even in climates that can grow many different types of foods, farmers grow lots of just one thing — like oranges or garlic. They do this so they can trade the food and make money!

Use these tips to make quick work of this project!

Part 1: How much food does the US really produce, and do we generate enough food to feed everyone on the planet?

You will likely find that the US does not produce so much food that it could feed the entire global population, but we do produce surpluses and generate over 1/3 of all the world's food. Some interesting things you might find in your investigations into this question is how much food we waste; how much food is produced worldwide; and the poor distribution patterns of food production across the globe. Remember that our discussions now focus on engagement, so answer the question, but feel free to relate your experiences, opinions, or research into these collateral topics!

Part 2: If you are wondering what food to choose from your kitchen, this is a great list of choices since each of these comes from very far away, and often there is no US grown substitute.
