Food Contamination

By: Cody Hughes

In this article it talks about food contamination and how it poses an issue later in the future. It talks about microbial, chemical, and physical contamination in food. It then goes over how almost everyone in the world has or will get a waterborne or a food borne sickness in their life. Then it later goes on about how there are many more bacterial sickness that are passing around because of contaminated food. But lastly in this article it goes over how rare it is now of days it is to get safe and clean food. I think this is a big issue now into our days because people are putting things in our food and not giving it all there care and this will hurt us in the long run.

    I think that this is a very important topic to talk about because we usually just consume food without even thinking what could be inside the foods that we are eating. I feel like the people who make the food should be more careful because they could end up eating what they made. It’s crazy to think that almost everyone in the world has either gotten a waterborne or food-borne illness in their life.

    This article was kind of an eye opener for me because we eat these foods everyday, but we never stop to think about what we put in our bodies. The fact we have to be careful about what we eat due to contamination is just crazy to me and it’s not an issue that’s really talked about either.

    Your article is truly good. You speak about something that I never heard before. Indeed we eat every time food like this and sometimes ours bodies could be ill. We have to pay more attention about that and that why I think your blog could help us to open eyes.

    I found your blog post and article very interesting. I haven’t done much research about food contamination but I have more recently become interested in the topic. I am very curious about prevention methods and how major corporations are able to produce massive quantities of food without any contaminants. Also, I wonder how GMOs play a role into these situations.

On Shaky Ground

By: Hannah Meadows The New Madrid fault line is a growing danger right under peoples feet. Most people don’t realize how catastrophic it would be if the fault line went off and the worst part… there is no telling when it will go off. Usually, earthquakes wouldn’t be an issue in places like California because all of their buildings are built to withstand earthquakes. However, the New Madrid fault line sits right along southern Missouri and Missouri is known for its sedimentary rock. This means an earthquake in Missouri would cause all buildings and houses to be buried since they aren’t built to withstand earthquakes. Now what would the statistics really look like if the New Madrid fault line were to go off unexpectedly?  84,000 buildings damaged and 37,000 more destroyed, almost entirely residences  Over 15,000 people killed and an additional 120,000 displaced Nearly 200 schools and over 100 fire stations would be damaged  37 hospitals and 67 police stations would be compl...

Energy: Hydropower Pros and Cons

Image
 Hydropower is not often talked about as a primary option for sustainable energy, however, 6.6% of energy produced in the U.S. is through hydropower, compared to solar energy which happens to only be 2.3% and is usually the first thought when someone mentions “clean energy.” The reason for this being the majority hydropower plants only give energy to large-scale, industrial operations.  Hydropower boasts a few positives that make it a viable option, those being that it is reliable, safe, and produces a very low amount of emissions. Other than that, they are fairly expensive to build, and they have a very realistic potential to cause droughts. Hydropower is an interesting source of energy and as of now it is only really used for industrial use, however in the future there is a very real possibility for it to be used to power residential areas.  https://www.solarreviews.com/blog/hydroelectric-energy-pros-and-cons#pros-and-cons

They called it a shrinking world because our technology is getting even better and better. Anyways going into the article there is a graph and a description of the burgeoning population of the globe. After it talk about this problem it gets into how this can help our food problem and how we are on our way to a new type of farming. It ends off with them giving numbers on there work with BI intelligence and how much money they made in 2020 and what they are projected to make in 2050.
