April 29, 2013 -- The LAST Unit!
This week we will start our last unit in G&E. This unit has been designed to give you a little more flexibility with assignments and independence in the way in which you complete your work. I am looking forward to hearing your ideas through the G&E blog and in class discussions.
Topic: The Government and Economics of Food
Focus: We will work with various media to identify:
WHAT we eat and HOW it makes it to our plate.
This might sound simple however once we begin to research FOOD and all it takes to grow, manufacture and distribute it you will see that it has become a complicated process. You will be SHOCKED to find out how many hands have been on your food before it makes it into yours!
Tell me what you want to know about the food you eat! (think GOV and ECON if you can).

What regulations are there on meat? Has anything changed since The Industrial Revolution? What is different or the same now?

Who is in charge of making sure there aren't gross things in my milk?
