One of the areas the Salado Indians lived in is where the Tonto National Monument.The three main agricultural crops they grew and lived on were called “The Three Sisters”; corn, beans and squash. The corn they ate and grew was not the same kind that Americans eat today.Rather it is multi-colored and smaller. The beans were flat podded climbing beans. And the squash was winter squash where the skin was hardened and the seeds were more mature. The crops were planted close together in mounds…

the past, it had focused on whaling and nuclear efforts, but with stricter regulations in place and in order to stay relevant, Greenpeace has moved onto current issues, such as Golden Rice in India. However, the reasoning and effects of this issue has caused widespread controversy. Greenpeace’s protest on Golden Rice is causing it to lose support as it strays from their original goal of environmental protest into popular pseudoscience. Greenpeace found its beginnings in the Cold war as the…

Globalization and the associated advancements in technology and medicine have done much more to rid the world of dangerous and widespread diseases like polio and smallpox than they have to contribute negatively to public health. All-the-same, though, the increased possibility of global spread of disease is a an important and worrisome concern. I do not believe that the international flow of goods, food, and people should be stemmed for the sake of public health on anything but a case by case…

In my opinion I think we should stop using GMO food because it a presents several problem for human health and environment. First of all, a huge concern about GMO food is may cause of high risk allergies because it no test that guarantee that GMO will not cause allergies.

However, not many people actually know what GMO stands for. GMO is an abbreviation for genetically modified organism, and can be created by genetic engineering or biotechnology. These organisms could never be created naturally. They can be used for yeast, plants, fish, and other animals. Most commonly it is used in processed foods, even…

GMO’s. Competition has always been an effect of changing an aspect of business, and this would just be another scenario where that happened. Competition stems from customers making choices based on what they know. Without labeling GMO ingredients, the food industry is losing out on some valuable competition. Again, in the past, ingredients that seemed undesirable were not labeled. Nutrition facts including things like fats and cholesterol may not have once been labeled because companies did not…

The Food of Tomorrow Genetic Engineering has the ability to fix and prevent many injustices in our world, from nutrient deficiencies to genetic diseases. However, this useful method is being used harmfully. Not because what it allows for is inherently bad, but rather because it is being abused, which is often a byproduct of humanity. I am without question that Genetic Engineering could be something amazing, but only if humanity could remain moral. Since it 's not, at the very least people…

Certain states have specific laws over labeling GMOs, while others are still working to get laws passed over labeling GMOs. In America today we want to know if we are eating something that is not good for us. Americans today…
