Food Persuasive Speech

The global population is expected to reach 9 billion people by the year 2050 and scientific projections indicate that world is on a trajectory towards an environmental and global food crisis. World Leaders, environmental enthusiasts and aid agencies have cause for alarm as they support urgent policies for change, for without them mankind will face unprecedented food insecurity. In 2015 estimates were that there were “some 795 million people” [World Food Programme, 2015], experiencing food insecurity and 3.1 million children under 5 died through malnutrition, while Australians continue to waste an estimated 361 Kg’s of food per person per yr [PMSEIC, 2010, p.44] All the while the earth groans under the weight of Greenhouse Gas Emissions [GHG], deforestation, soil degradation and

How many of you have eaten fast food this month? I bet it tasted good, but what you didn't know is that you're promoting the production of low-quality food, feeding the obesity epidemic in America. According to recent statistics, of the 16 in this room, 7 will become obese in their lifetime. It's the Bojangles on the way home from school or the McDonalds on when you don't have much time for lunch, but does it really save you time when you die of obesity or cardiovascular disease at a young age.

The world we live in today is growing at an extremely fast pace. It seems to be that everyday there are more buildings being built, more concrete being poured, and more free land being destroyed. The cause of these events is the worlds’ population rate. Every day our population reaches an all-time high, every day we gain more mouths to feed, and every day we are losing ways to feed these mouths. Food insecurity has risen significantly along with the rise of our population. We must find ways to lower the food insecurity rate by finding new farming practices, making the public more aware of this issue, and doing more ourselves to make sure that we make a change to this problem.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Who here didn’t have their breakfast this morning? I bet most of you did. I used to be one of those too until last month when I did a research on Biology and by chance, came across a fact about how important breakfast is. I believe that as soon as you heard the topic, you will assume that I am going to give you a life lesson as your parents do. “Breakfast is the most essential meal” is spoken by every mother, yet the reasons why we should eat breakfast have never been clarified more clearly and seriously. The following speech will highlight that breakfast is required for three main reasons; first, it helps improve our grades; second, it controls our balance diet; and more importantly; it can promote

Do you know what it means to be healthy? What was the last thing YOU ate? Do you realize that these things are bad for you? I get it eating healthy can be a problem for some people even though you may just be that person that chooses not to eat healthy it can still be a struggle. Everyone and their family enjoy eating things such as (Cakes,Pies,Ice Cream,Cookies,etc.) so why would you choose to eat healthy foods over that? And in this essay I will be explaining many different reasons as to why many people need to cut down on the junky foods and to start eating healthy.

By definition, obesity is being grossly fat or over weight. It has been said that adults and children are more likely to eat out at fast food restaurants on a monthly bases, which in many cases has lead to obesity. It’s said that a teen age girl should have 1,800-2,400 of calories a day. When at fast food restaurants they are getting twice that amount or even triple of it, due to the fact they don’t care or realize the amount of calories they consume in just one meal. People today aren’t aware of the danger eating out can do to our body’s and health. Fast foods restaurants only care if you come spend your money on them then eat their food. They don’t care what happens to you afterwards. Thesis: People should be aware

Preview: So today, we’re going to talk about the wonderful world of Nutrition, and I’m going to try to convince you that carrots and celery aren’t just rabbit food, but people food too.

Specific Purpose: To persuade my audience the need for better eating habits, the solution to poor nutrition, and the outcome of healthy eating.

In the past ten years the world population exceeded six billion people with most of the growth occurring in the poorest, least developed countries in the world. The rapidly increasing population and the quickly declining amount of land are relative and the rate at which hunger is increasing rises with each passing year. We cannot afford to continue to expand our world population at such an alarming rate, for already we are suffering the consequences. Hunger has been a problem for our world for thousands of years. But now that we have the technology and knowledge to stamp it out, time is running short.

THESIS STATEMENT: Breakfast is an essential part of your morning routine because it kickstarts your metabolism, helps you concentrate and perform better in class, and aids in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Obesity is becoming a more common phrase when speaking about the American lifestyle, but many people don’t actually know

b. Each day, 1 in 4 Americans visits a fast food restaurant (Fast food facts).

The solution is simple, and will be a win win situation for everyone, but it will also vary depending on if it is a person or place. First focusing on just house holds, according to the article "15 easy ways to reduce food waste" by Mellisa Breyer, you should buy small days worth of food at a time, in order to prevent food going bad. When eating out take home leftovers in trays and save them for when you get hungry. At home eat leftovers on a regular night, and try to keep smaller portions so you know you will finish the food. Next are places such as amusement park, movie theaters, and restaurants. At the end of the night these places toss any leftover/non-sold food, mest up orders. Instead off tossing all the leftover/unsold food, take it to a shelter where it is guarenteed to be eaten. If it is going to be thrown away, might as well let the less fortunate have it.Supporting campaigns such as

When it comes down to feeding your body and mind, nothing is superior to preparing your food from scratch, with quality ingredients and served with love. If you have never experienced this phenomenon then try it out for 90 days and see how you feel. Come to that, see how your family feels as you work together in the kitchen to create a level of harmony and good health that is only possible when food is prepared in a loving manner, and eaten slowly with others. OK, so no excuses about time and schedules and…and…and. Instead let’s take a look at why preparing your food is a win-win situation for everyone.

What if you were forced to eat foods you don’t like to eat, because of its look or smell, but it is all you have. We will focus on what it takes to be a healthy in the eyes of the government, also what classifies as fatting/"bad for you" or in other words unhealthy. Why does the officials in our government put restrictions on school foods? Is it fair, what are they hoping to achieve by applying the restrictions on schools.
