local food movement

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZcbq4JNuto

First off in this video they talk about how they preffer local food because they like helping around their community and they get to meet new people and its fresh and healthy. Second of all, all the speakers were women and old peopl buying at the food market. The old people like it because they get lonely and they get to walk around and talk to people, I doubt they care if its healthy or not, much rather use it as an excuse. I do however agree that people have the choice to buy and eat what they want. Its there life so they shouldn't deicede whats good for others, just for themselves.

enviornment and food

in his talk he discussesabout how its getting hotter every year and how this heat might affect the growth of the food that is grown. First of I want to point out that the earths temperature changes all the time, the only reason we see it get hotter is because now we have technology to actually measure the temperature unlike back in the day were we werent sure what the difference was. Second he didnt really explain how it might affect it.

This guy talks about how we are the ones to make a difference in what we eat. If one person, the president, does not make that change than its up to us to make that change. I thought his talk was rather interesting and I do like how he is preffereing to move forward rather then to move back. And by that I mean that he doesn't think of getting rid of packaged food and such but rather get people to eat more healthy. And I think that is the right thing because we already know whats healthy but we eat whats cheaper and tastes better. If we can get it in our heads to eat healthier then maybe we just will and prices of healthier foods will go down in a way.

Genetically modifed food

I have always heard about genetically modified food having chemicals added to it so it has more nutrition to it and thats a bad thing. And that its better to get organic food because its more natural and even MORE healthier then the genetically modified food. So who shouldI believe? we have had genetically modiefied food for years and not once have I heard someone dying of that food they eat, nor have I heard someone die of organic food. If their is no evidence against genetically modified food being poisonis then I believe its up to the peopl to decided which one is better and or which they want. cased closed.

MLK

I feel like he specificly wrote this letter for everyone but sent it to people who would maybe find it interesting to read what he had to say. Sort of just start small and end big because eventually the word would spread of what he had to say. And also because a preist would see tend to think, "what would jesus do" and people with higher authority & or maybe a different mindset might give it a second chance. So he sent it to the people who would maybe be a little more open minded and they would speak and people would listen because people only listen to people who they feel have a higher authority or fit in a specific strong group.

Journalist people

I really do dislike the amount of journalist there are in today’s world. Just like the internet, they spread lies and bring attention to things that don’t matter to the public yet we all read them anyways. I hate how journalist now a days focus too much on celebrities life, I like there music and or acting skills but I don’t care that she chose the wrong dress or that his hair style does not match his facial structure. Just today I got on yahoo to check my mail and there’s an article about Serena Williams being criticized for putting a picture online, quite frankly I don’t give a damn. The media on the internet is the worst, since almost everyone has access to the internet, journalist take advantage of the amount of potential readers and put anything that might get attention. They should stick to the important things like maybe corruption in our and others government and all the things that matter and that are not rubbish.

tech effect

Today we have so many different sources to chose from thanks to the internet websites. Google the search engine can help you find just what you are lookinig for but with great browsing comes great responsibilities. Sure there are alot of good things posted on the internet but theres also people that just like spreading lies. Lies that eventually get notice and are the main highlights. Also social networking can help a bit too such as facebook, if you have a friend on facebook that attends the same class as you then you can ask what you missed. Or they might know better sources for things you might want to know. The internet has a big impact on the things we do, we rely on it for emails from work, school and family. We use it to check are bank accounts, entertainment, to find the nearest restaurant and so forth. Ive been told that back in the day everyone would go to the library and do there homework there looking for books to write there essays and no one relied on the internet. We have become to dependant on the internet and thats not good because it serves as a shortcut and its making us lazy...in my opinion.
