The Solution: Part 6

The Solution: Part 6



Looking back at the evidence presented in the “Why Organic?” series and “The Solution,” it is clear that we have a problem. Our population is growing and we continue to destroy our planet. We have already seen the effects of this in many areas, such as Africa and rural Asia. We believe that something needs to be done. Our ideal choice would be to decentralize the food production process here in America. We believe this would decrease the amount of animal-derived methane gases significantly, but it would also increase the cost of food.

Although there may be terrible effects on the price of food, specifically beef and other meat products, in America and many people will suffer, we believe it is time for Americans to take responsibility for the world we are destroying. If we stay on this path, the amount of damage caused by global warming will result in food shortages and famines around the world. Within a few hundred years, there could be no poor to suffer from the high costs of food. If we do not change our food production processes here in America, we could be a leading cause of the destruction of our beautiful earth.

So, what can we do? Obviously the food production process will not “decentralize” overnight. That would not be realistic, nor would it be good for the well being of many, if not all, Americans. I believe that anything is realistic, so those who say “The food production process in America will never decentralize” in my opinion have too little faith in not only the human race, but also underestimate the repercussions of what we are doing to our planet.

That being said, what should we do?

Monday, we are going to give you FIVE things that you can do to be a part of The Solution!
