For our last assignment, we’ll be summing up the semester from all you have learned, and adding a bit more this week. I want you to think about all the assignments you completed this semester, including the Country Research Projects 1, 2, and 3, The Malthusian and Updates to Limits paper, Water/Oceans, Rivers, and Food, and Climate Change. This week we’ll be adding the Proposed Solutions for the Future of Food module. Review this module and the variety of new technologies available to improve sustainability and yield in the agriculture industry, while decreasing water usage, fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, and environmental damage.
For this assignment, review two issues that you discussed in the Country Research Project papers 1-3. This can also include the Climate Change paper, and the Water/Oceans, and Rivers assignments. Next, discuss how the technologies found in the Proposed Solutions for the Future of Food Module can be used to alleviate or mitigate some of the issues that are occurring in the country you covered. Be creative, but base your discussion with logic. Support your thoughts with research. MAKE SURE TO CITE AND REFERENCE! I am not concerned what format you use, but make sure you cite/reference properly.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS ASSIGNMENT IS DUE FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13th. The course closes on Saturday, 11:59pm, so I’ll try to have it graded so you’ll see your final grade/point total.
