Food For Thought (Biology Blog 7)

     In an activity performed two days ago in class, we saw about how much food and people each continent has. Each continent had representatives to show about how much the population was, and these representatives were given food for their continent. North America was given the most food...displaying the fact that North Americans produce more food than any other continent; despite the fact that North America had one of the fewest representatives.. Every other continent had a significantly lower amount of food but typically more representatives. This suprised me. I knew that North America produced a lot of food, but I didn't realize just how much food..and how much more food than everyone else. Asia, for example, had the most representatives, but one of the lowest amount of food. This led me to believe that we are very blessed to live in North America. We typically do not have to worry about having food...and that is a very big blessing. This activity changed the way I thought about North America, and the other continents.
