This is what the teacher instructed on the paper:
Questions to address
How much grain is needed to feed one feedlot steer for one year (or for the life of the steer)? How many people could that amount of grain feed? What are the arguments for and against a reduction of animal agriculture to ease world hunger? How much water does it take to raise a feedlot steer or produce a pound of meat? How much oil? How much land? For grass-fed steer, how much PUBLIC land is used for cattle grazing? Why have grazing practices of the 20th century (and in many places, still in effect) been unsustainable? Besides wasteful resource use, what other consequences did you discover? Report effects on climate disruption, pollution, human disease, and biodiversity loss. Not everyone will want to stop or reduce their beef consumption. What eco-friendly solutions are available to make the cattle industry less harmful to society and the environment?
Of the many destructive activities we could have researched (i.e., the textile industry, oil and gas industries, nuclear power, auto manufacturing and use, mining, poaching, etc.), why do you think I chose this one?
Notes on the process
• Researching this topic brings up many related issues, not the least important being the research process itself, and the importance of listing sources of all pertinent research, so anyone can read the studies firsthand and evaluate the methods used.
• This topic is one example of how some important issues are not common knowledge, or steeped in bias, especially on the part of businesses whose self-interests would be in jeopardy if the evidence became common knowledge. You have the opportunity to research facts not widely known and to experience for yourself the need to critically evaluate information, especially from the web.
• In doing so, you build an awareness of how many things we take for granted (resources, etc.), and how everything is interconnected.
Technical Instructions
*The essay should be at least 1000 words but no more than 1500. Put your name and a title at the top, and references at the bottom. The filename of your document should be saved with your last name first.
