Food and Agriculture-communication assignment.

This is where you will lay claim (no lunar landing) to a particular topic on food and agriculture. My lectures thus far have skimmed the surface on a variety of topics. You need to pick a side on a topic and find evidence in support of it. Then go out and do it. Along with your presentation to the class you will also present some of the changes and challenges you underwent during the process. I will give you a bulk of next week to conduct research. You will work with a partner or on your own. No groups of 3 please. This will generate a portion of your communication mark - you want to ensure that you do extremely well in this in order to make up for any shortcomings you may have in other areas of your mark. **Remember to keep listening to your foreign radio station at the same time! That's why I'm making next week's blog post lighter in content. Topics could include: 100 mile diet (eating locally) Paleo diet GMOs and GE foods (pro or con) Obesity and other weight disorders Fish farms (aquaculture) Wild foods vs. domesticated foods. Vegetarianism vs. meat what should we eat? Veganism Medicinal plants and "super"foods Impacts of agriculture on water supply Urban sprawl and agriculture -Other - pls. clear with me in advance.
