  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Community Help Others
    In your opinion, how do social inequalities diminish a strong sense of community?

    Social inequalities prevent us from establishing a connection and compassion for others, because only a small margin of people are taking initiative to go associate, and integrate themselves with a community that has a standing in our world. It is difficult to have a directional sense of a strong community without affiliation to those who influence its culture.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Choose Organic Ingredients
    Can organic farming feed the world? Which side of the argument do you fall on? Why?

    Organic farming seemingly produces enough food to sustain any world. The problem lies there in our perspectives, as we waste so much food (40% of our produce per year). Alongside that, the more that organic farming is utilized, the cheaper it can become, so that it is affordable towards all as well.

    By maintaining a distance from technology during vital portions of my day, I can also get my homework done faster for every class, especially AP European History.
