Irrigation from the two rivers made it possible for the early settlers to farm and had abundant crops for trade.

As a result, Mesopotamian had a lot of food variety they can choose from and permitted others to look for different jobs; for example, making clay pots and tools. Thus, new jobs developed and buildings and dams were built (Britannica, 2011) Part B The development of the chariot provides as a great example of diffusion throughout the continents.

Part one is Industrial/Corn, it describes how corn is the most important ingredient in the industrial food chain, while the second part, Pastoral/Grass talks about organic farming. The last part is on Personal/The Forest, here Mr. Pollan is describing to his readers how he could make a meal out of whatever he could grow, hunt, or gather himself. This document gives a book review only on the first section. Michael Pollan shows us how hard it is to actually choose what we eat given that nature itself has a lot to offer. Nevertheless, if we studied the American industry, we would find that there is one basic ingredient that seems to be in just about everything: - corn.
Final Copy I have recently thought about diseases in meat. I also watched a movie called Food Inc. and it talked about the food industry. It persuaded me to change the food industry because corn is fed to cows to make them fat in a fast and cheap way, each burger contains about a hundred pieces from different cows, and getting sued for criticizing specific meat companies.

Exploring new ways of shopping can be scary because it is breaking away from old habits and subjecting one’s self to change. Instead of buying meat from the local stores, when the meat comes from plants that feed the live stock corn, research the local area for small farmers who sell whole chickens, pigs, cows, goats and so on. When reaching out to these farmers do not be shy and directly ask, “Are you feeding your live stock industrial corn feed?” This might take a few times but eventually one famer will respond with, “No, I feed my live stock their natural food sources such as Alfa, for the cows.” This is a good sign that when buying from this famer an element of hidden corn will be eliminated from the diet. Every state has gun laws and hunting laws. Find out what these laws are and take action by hunting wild game and using the meat of animals who only serve off the land and surroundings, such wild game like, deer, elk, fish, duck, turkey and geese.
