Poem: The Travel Of A Carbon Atom

The sky world, similar to the Christian Garden of Eden, contained a powerful tree of life which sustained a world teeming with life including beings. One day, the tree was uprooted and pushed through a hole in the sky in order to create a new world

Carla the Carbon atom is a free spirit. She wanders through the atmosphere, moving with the wind. Carla floats from one cloud to the next, without a care on her mind. One day, she was floating in the air, and was joined by two oxygen companions, Oscar and Octavius. Her two companions transformed her into a carbon dioxide molecule. Her new status as a molecule allowed her new privileges, like the ability to enter plants and to take part in plant and animal respiration. Carla was now a part of an exclusive club.

Surprisingly the more and more I read into each tablet I began to understand the ways or writing so much better than I did within my first passages I read. One section that did confuse me as I read on more past then what was given as an assignment, was the darkness passage he took. He would walk for miles on end not knowing where he was going or what it was leading towards. The half breads scorpions explains to him he cannot pass as a mortal that he would never survive, however after hours of hot darkness he then approaches onto a light in a distance. The closer he gets the brighter it gets. This light then ends up beings a forest of some kind. He steps into a beautiful garden filled with fruit, rubies, and other jewels. Past the riches he

Saving the planet is a topic that is taken seriously by a huge part of this planet’s population. James McWilliams argument, “The Locavore Myth: Why Buying from Nearby Farmer Won’t Save the Planet,” explains why people need to buy food from people other than the local farmers. He believes that the focus of the locavore movement on transportation is wrong because the real problem lies within the energy-hogging factors in food production. McWilliams also went on to explain that another mistake that the locavore movement made was how food miles were calculated. He believes that a truck with 2,000 apples driving 2,000 miles would consume the same amount of fuel as a truck that carried 50 apples to a local shop only 50 miles away. James McWilliams states that “The critical measure here is not food miles but apples per gallon.” He also argues that taking meat out of a person’s diet would cut down on the carbon footprint of his or her dinner because it takes less energy to bring plants, rather than meat, to the table.

The Omnivore’s Dilemma Summary The main idea of The Omnivore’s Dilemma, by Michael Pollan, is to make the reader aware of where his food comes from, and what goes into his food. Pollan does this by breaking the book into four different types of meals: the industrial and processed meal consisting of food produced in factories or grown on large-scale farms, the organic meal created on industrial farms, the “grass fed” meal made of meat and produce created on mindful and smaller farms, and finally the meal containing food gathered, hunted, or grown by the person who will consume it. Pollan starts by explaining the origin of corn in Mexico and southwestern North America.

In “The Omnivore’s Dilemma: A natural history of four meals,” Michael Pollan examines American eating habits. The book is divided into three pieces. The first piece focuses on industrial farming, the second analyzes organic food, and the third discusses hunting and gathering of our own food.

As omnivorous beings, it seems that is both a blessing and a curse to have such a vast amount of meal choices to choose from. In The Omnivore’s Dilemma, Michael Pollan explores the majority of these options and offers a sort of guide on how to make a choice. The UC Berkeley Graduate School journalism professor takes us on an eye-opening ride with this book where we find out horrifying truths on the ingredients of the foods we eat every day and whether our choices benefit our bank accounts more than they do our health and the earth.

Have you ever stopped and asked yourself: what are you really eating? Recently, I’ve come to the realization of what I’m eating on a daily basis isn’t entirely healthy for me. Michael Pollan, who is the author of the book The Omnivore’s Dilemma, has opened my mind. While reading the first couple of chapters of The Omnivore’s Dilemma, I’ve realized that I don’t know much about the food I eat daily. For example, I didn’t know that farmers not only feed corn but also antibiotics to their animals (Walsh 34). In The Omnivore’s Dilemma, Pollan makes a strange statement, “You are what what you eat eats, too” (Pollan 84). Pollan continuously emphasizes this remark through various examples and he’s right, because strangely enough the food that our food eats not only affects them but us as well.

What am I exactly eating? Where does our food come from? Why should I care? “The Omnivore’s Dilemma” may forever change the way you think about food. I enjoyed Mr. Pollan’s book, “The Omnivore’s Dilemma” and learned a great deal of information. Pollan’s book is a plea for us to stop and think for a moment about our whole process of eating. Pollan sets out to corn fields and natural farms, goes hunting and foraging, all in the name of coming to terms with where food really comes from in modern America and what the ramifications are for the eaters, the eaten, the economy and the environment. The results are far more than I expected them to be.

For this discussion, I will review the media program then explain the human services professional (HSP) is ethical conflict that is surfacing. Secondly, I will disclose how I would handle this ethical conflict as a HSP. Finally, I identify a code of ethics to justify my opinion.

Notably, the concept of improving plants has existed since the day humans started on the long journey toward agricultural advancement. This was

Agranoff states that the process of integrating disparate human services in the 1960s and 1970s encountered serious problems, for example, the inability of getting agencies to work together to address complex issues and ultimately managers’ inability to collaborate with each other (p. 160). The traditional managerial and administration system has evolved throughout the years depending on theory findings, technology advancement and managers’ performance on leveraging resources— in a very exclusive cycle where government officials and policy makers take the lead to delay the New Public Management (NPM) wave, an inclusive cycle of interaction between public officials and per profit and non-profit partners (p. 198). There are four sets of forces

I could tell time was passing, for I grew cold, hungry, and tired. As Adam lied on the ground as good as dead, I broke down in despair and anger crying out to God for any sign of pity.

Whether Faith obeyed, he knew not. Hardly had he spoken, when he found himself amid calm night and solitude, listening to a roar of the wind, which died heavily away through the forest. He staggered against the rock, and felt it chill and damp, while a hanging twig, that had been all on fire, besprinkled his cheek with the coldest dew.

"I have only leaves and apples. Take my apples, Boy, and sell them in the city. Then you will be happy. And so the boy climbed up the tree and gathered her apples and carried
