SOC450 Solutions to Global Issues
Week 6 Discussion
Feeding the World
This week you learned that though there is, in fact, enough food available to feed the entire world every day, this is not happening for various reasons. Review the state of food resources globally but specifically in developing countries. What are the major causes for a lack of food resources? Consider what solutions might be to address the different causes. Then look at the community in which you live. Are there food deserts in your community? If food became inaccessible to all in your community, how would that affect your day-to-day life? How would it affect the immediate community?
Review the posts of your classmates and respond to at least one other post, supporting your classmate’s position on the issue with a fact in agreement from the course materials or a scholarly source. Be sure to cite that source using the Strayer Writing Standards.
Be sure to inform your response with facts from sources. Use our ebook/textbook each week and at least one scholarly outside source. You must cite sources in-text and give a full citation at the end of your response using the Strayer Writing Standards.
TIPS FOR ANSWERING THE DQ:
Be sure to organize your discussion question responses. For example, your Week 6 DQ requires that you assess global food insecurity in order to answer these questions – Are there food deserts in your community? If food became inaccessible to all in your community, how would that affect your day-to-day life? How would it affect the immediate community?
So you need to have a response that is two (2) parts and paragraphs.
Review the state of food resources globally. What are the major causes for a lack of food resources? Consider what solutions might be to address the different causes. Here are helpful articles:
