of the documentary? Provide at least 3
and make sure they are different lessons than you mentioned in previous
homeworks.
1.it negatively impact china by has eating away of one third of the country farmland.
ReplyDelete2.china was trying to get the population all the food they could produce.
3.they cheated nature by injecting chemicals on lands.the positive was that they began popping soil with artificial fertilizers and pesticides.
4.this could lead to a crisis of food because of them digging deeper just for food.
5. Water crisis,energy crisis and the food production are all connected to each other because they are culture problems.
6. Its the quickest trigger for a collapse because people need food and with out food in there home places people will leave there homes and find a new home with food.this is what causes a collapse.
7.his purpose of stem food crisis is if people dont have food then that could lead to a crisis.
8.the dangerous catalyst that made the other crisis we have discussed spiral out of control was the climate cahnge(global warming).
9.what i think is because people probably because people were thinking and worrying about the other important things they need to get done.
10.the lessons we can learn is we ahould pay more attention to what is happening to the climate changes.another thing we should do is that we should gather food for our people buh we should not damage our environment while gathering food.also we should have enough food for every one to feed so everyone should be happy about it.
1. The negative consequence of overgrazing and intensive agriculture is that a third of the farmland became infertile.
ReplyDelete2. China was challenged with supporting their expanding population without industrialized farmlands.
3. "Cheating nature" required administration of chemicals into marginally fertile land. Additionally, modern countries used artificial fertilizers and pesticides to fill the soil. A positive impact of "cheating nature" was that it increased agricultural production, promoting more food provisions for the massive population.
4. Modernizing food production can also entail a food crisis because, while in the process of digging for food, topsoil is being dispersed; major nutrients to help plants develop are in topsoil, and without those nutrients our food will not sprout, transitioning into a crisis.
5. Food production, energy crisis and water crisis are all in relation because, without energy food production will become lengthy, and food production demands a hefty amount of water, resulting in a water crisis, and without water, food production will cease, ultimately leading to collapse.
6. Due to nations exporting mass food amounts to other less fortunate nations, in eventuality farmlands will cease to exist. This makes food an easy collapse cause.
7. Jared Diamond's solutions to stem the food crisis are to purchase food that is locally produced, to grow organic food, farmers need to be weary of soil erosion, have a stable water supply, and be economically realistic.
8. The treacherous stimulus that has made other crises become chaotic is an alteration in the climate.
9. I believe that people do not highly regard changes in the climate because, they have the mentality that our nation is invincible, and they haven't truly experienced severe climate changes that can make our society fall.
10. Lessons that can be taken from this documentary are:
a. Purchase merchandise in moderation.
b. Be weary of not only the good that can result from agriculture, but also the bad.
c. Reduce the use of greenhouse gases, and think about how they are shaping the environment.
1- The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture has negatively impacted China by eating away up to one third of the countries farmland.
ReplyDelete2- China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices according to their growing population and the expansion of it's desserts.
3- Modern countries have “cheated nature” since the 1950s by injecting chemicals into marginally productive lands. They began pumping the soil with artificial fertilizers and pesticides. The positive results were that crop yields had increased five fold, feeding a growing world population.
4- The modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production by using gigantic machines to cultivate the land, destroying the soil. The topsoil layer of 8 inches was being blown away and inch by inch we were practically digging ourselves deeper into a global food crisis.
5- Food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because food production requires a lot of energy and water in order for the crops to keep harvesting, leading to all three crisis.
6- Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because there are nations that produce more and more food transporting it to less less nations with higher inputs of technology and energy, making farmlands loose all of their food production, leading it to collapse.
7- Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis are:
~ food has to be grown sustainably
~ there has to be a water supply for the indefinite future
~ food should be grown organically
~ and farmers have to be aware of soil erosion.
8- The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is a major shift in the climate.
9- I think people do not take climate change seriously because they believe that they can get past through it, little do they know is that it can really affect them at some point in their life, leading their nation to a future collapse.
10- 3 valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment of the documentary are:
~ be aware of the climate changes
~ farmlands should produce more food wisely
~ and nation should be aware of future global food crisis.

10. Lessons that can be taken from this documentary are:
- Purchase merchandise in moderation.
- Be weary of not only the good that can result from agriculture, but also the bad.
- Reduce the use of greenhouse gases, and think about how they are shaping the environment.
1. Overgrazing and intensive agriculture caused 1/3 of the farmland to become infertile.
ReplyDelete2. China was caught in a vice grip of competing choices because of trying to support their overpopulation.
3. Modern countries have “cheated nature” since the 1950s by injecting chemicals into fertile land and by using fertilizers and pesticides in the soil.
4. The modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production due to destroying the soil and removing the nutrients which results in food not growing.
5. Problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because in order to produce food you need water and in order to produce the food and water you need energy.
6. Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because nations who do produce food export to nations that cannot which then results in the breakdown of farmland due to overproduction.
7. Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis are to grow organic food, make farmers more aware of soil erosion, and to have enough of a water supply.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is a change in the climate.
9. I think that people do not take climate change seriously because we think that we are invincible.
10. Valuable lessons are that we should be more aware of climate change and the outcome from it, we should buy organic products when possible, and we should think about the bad that comes from agriculture.
1. The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted China because 1/3’s of the farmland became infertile and it could take up to 500 years to use the land again.
ReplyDelete2. China caught in a vice grip of competing choices because they had a huge population and no industrialized farmlands. That means that they didn’t have enough food to feed their population.
3. Modern countries “cheated nature” since the 1950s by putting gasoline which gave more fertile land. That helped us grow more food for our growing population.
4. The modernization of food production can lead to a crisis in food production by us using to more water. When we use more water for producing food we are going low on water when people are already trying to get “blue gold”.
5. Problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because you need water to grow food and if you don’t have water you can’t grow food
6. Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because people start rioting is they don’t get food. Jared Diamond said that when he was in Chilly and they were having a food crisis people were rioting.
7. Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis were to have a stable water supply, grow organic food to let the farmers aware about the soil erosion.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is the climate change. The global temperature has gone up 5 degrees than normal.
9. I think people do not take climate change seriously because it’s not affecting them right away unless it is damaging them. An example given by Jared Diamond was that when someone shoots a bullet in a room people empty the room within seconds, meaning when they are in threat is when they react.
10. Valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment of the documentary is to grow food organically, make people seem like global warming is a huge threat to them right now and they need to start taking actions now. And another lesson is to make farmers aware of soil erosion problem because they are the ones growing crops.
1: The overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted China in a way that 1/3 of China's farmland was infertile.
ReplyDelete2: China's caught in a vice grip because of their expanding dessert and an overgrowing population.
3: They cheated nature by injecting artificial fertilizer and pesticides. It affected them positively in a way that the crops had increased five folds, that could feed the growing population.
4: Modernization of food production lead to a crisis because they were destroying the topsoil and and digging for food. Topsoil hold most nutrients to help crops grow if it is being destroyed a food crisis will occur.
5: A food and water crisis are connected. Because if there no water, we will have nothing to grow crops because we need water for food. Which will lead to collapse.
6: Food is one of the the quickest way for collapse because, people survive on food. Without food it will be impossible for us to go on. Which will lead to collapse.
7:Jared Diamond's solution was to grow organic food, have a stable water supply water and food has to be sustain-ably grown.
8: The dangerous catalyst that made the other crisis we have discussed spiral out of control is climate change.
9: People don't take climate change seriously because they don't think it's really a problem, they think can past through it easily, they also haven't experience severe weather change so they wouldn't how bad climate change can be.
10: Three valuable lesson from this documentary:
~always be prepared for the good and bad times.
~ always be aware of climate change.
~ we should produce wisely on farmlands

ReplyDelete1. The agriculture negatively impacted combinations as that the dust storm already have been eaten 1/3 of the country farm land.
2. China caught in vice grip by having including the increasing population and expansion of their deserts.
3. The positive results are pumping soil artificial fertilizer and pesticides.
4. The modernization of food production also lead to a crisis in food production cause we was restoring soil so that we have more food but less land.
5. The food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected because they all sacrifice the same thing at the same time plus if we didn't have no water that's means to food and no food means no more energy which lead them into collapse.
6. Food is the quickest triggers because their is it not a lot of food on the plantation because other nations need some of those foods which means that the nation are gonna go to a different country to feed their family and themselves.
7. Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis by having to enough crops that are already grown and making sure that the nation has enough water supply to last them awhile.
8.The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control by having climate change and global warming.
9.People don't take climate change seriously because they think that since they haven't had very bad weather that it won't come today or tomorrow.
10. 3 valuable lessons can be learned:
* always be prepared for what's coming or what's maybe coming later on.
*be aware of climate change or global warming.
* we should plant crops and farm enough food so that we can have enough food when a bad storm will hit us.

~~~~~~~~~~~~Alex Beetan~~~~~~~~~~~
1) over grazing can cause a number of things to go wrong with your crops
ReplyDelete2) China is trying to compete with their choices of over population
3) some countries have been injecting chemicals in there crops to help them
4) the large machinery that is use to help farm is damaging the land and can lead to erosion
5) they are all connected because crops need a lot of energy and water to grow
6) food is one of the main reasons for collapse
7) food shouldn't have all those chemicals they should be organic
8) this has to do with the shift in climate
9) I think people take what they have for granted until there isn't any left
10) ~ climate change can be very hazardous
~ more food should be organic
~ growing crops takes a lot of effort

1. The impacted by messing up the way they were custom to farming
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices according to their growing population and the expansion of it's desserts.

1. The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture is negatively impacted in China because it is the third of the farmland that became infertile.
ReplyDelete2. The China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices because they are trying to control their overgrowing population.
3. The modern countries “cheated nature” since 1950s by using chemicals to have fertile land. The positive results were that it helped grow more crops.
4.The modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production because it can ruin the soil of the land.
5. The energy crisis, the water crisis and the food production are all connected together because each of these can lead to another crisis. The crops (food) needs water and energy to grow.
6. Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because food is one of the most important things. We need food to live and without it there would be a big problem.
7. Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis is by saying to grow organic foods.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crisis we have discussed spiral out of control is the change in climate.
9. I think people do not take climate change seriously because people feel like its normal and it changes all the time. There are other more important things.
10. Valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment of the documentary are
1. Plant organic products because they are better.
2. We should always prepared if there is ever a food crisis.
3. What is happening because of the climate change.
1) The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted China because the land became infertile.
ReplyDelete2) Their overgrowing population and their expansion of the desert.
3) They had cheating nature by pumping soil into fertilizers and pesticides .The effects were mind boggling .Then by the end of the century crops had increased by 5 folds. The positive results was that they poured a lot of petroleum on the soil as a bi-product of all of the artificial fertilizing and using enormous machines to cultivate the land we had destroyed the soil.
4) It can lead to a crisis in food production because we are destroying the topsoil and we keep digging for food. However what we don’t know is that the top soil holds the key nutrients we need to help the crops grow.
5) The agriculture problem interacts with the water problem because if we have no water to water the food, the crops will eventually dry out and result in a collapse.
6) If we don’t have a food at a certain time of day, there would be a disaster. And when we do get our hands on some food we would rush to buy it.
7) –The farms have to be rowing the food productively
-have a water supply for the indefinite of our future
-food has to be as much organically grown as possible
8) The dangerous catalyst was climate control.
9) The reasons people may not take climate change seriously:
1. We have become so distanced from nature, after centuries of trying to wield our power over it and generations of relegating our children to spending more time indoors, we have lost some of our innate ability to care about the natural world.
2. It costs money to do some of the right green things.
3. The lack of the public’s concern. (They may not see it as a problem)
10) Always be prepared instead of afraid for the worst case scenarios, notice changes in the climate , make sure we have enough food to feed the population and not just ourselves.

1. combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted China because millions of the the topsoil was scraped off by the wind.
ReplyDelete2. China caught in a vice grip of competing choices was that china started to increase in their population.
3. modern countries “cheated nature” since the 1950 when the farmers started to leave their farms abanded
4. modernization of food production also lead to a crisis in food production when people was being greedy for the food and didnt share.
5. problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other becuase many people have the same problems.
6. food is the quickest trigger callaps because many people need food and if no one reproduce no one will eat.
1. The combination of overgrazing and extensive agriculture negatively impacted china because most of the countries land became unfertile.
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices because they had more people than fertile land. Therefore, they won’t be able to supply their people with food that they need.
3. The modern countries “cheated nature” by spray the crops and pumping the soil with pesticides to make the crops grow bigger.
4. The modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production because while providing a good amount of food we are digging up the top layer of soil which is a part of having fertile soil. The soil is being dispersed while working, which will lead to dry unfertile soil and crops will die.
5. The energy crisis and water crisis are connected to a problem like food production because if one goes down everything goes down with it.
6. Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because we have a large population and we need a large amount of food and without that we will collapse.
7. Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem food crisis is that we should only have local grown foods and organic foods so that they don’t wear down the soil.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises spiral out of control is the climate change because it effects every crisis.
9. I think that people don’t take climate change seriously because it hasn’t bothered them, if it gets colder we just put a jacket and don’t realize that it can be something serious.
10. The three lessons that can be learned are,
- Buy foods that are organic or locally grown
– People should be aware that the choices they make everyday effect the nation
– Farmers should try to salvage the top layer of soil
1. the combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted China that agriculture of farmland became infertile.
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices because china is trying to keep up with supporting their expanding population without using new industrialized farmlands.
3. modern countries “cheated nature” since the 1950s by using artificial fertilizer and pesticides on crops. This was positive because people were able to produce more crop than before, feeding the growing population.
4. the modernization of food production also lead to a crisis in food production because people were destroying the topsoil were digging for food. The top soil uses curtain nutrients to help crops grow, without the topsoil crops will not be able to grow.
5. problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because without water we will not be able to grow any crops.

8. the dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is climate change
9. people do not take climate change seriously because when people think about it is impossible.
10. valuable lessons can be learned from this segment of the documentary is grow organic food, save topsoil and save food
ReplyDelete1. The negative consequence of overgrazing and intensive agriculture is that a third of the farmland had became infertile.
2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices according to their growing population & the expansion of it's desserts there.
3. Some countries have been injecting chemicals in there crops to help them grow & more.
4. Modernization of food production lead to a crisis cause they were destroying the topsoil & also digging for food. Topsoil hold most nutrients to help the crops grow if it is being destroyed a food crisis will occur.
5. They are all connected because crops need a lot of energy & water to grow up.
6. Food is one of the quickest engender for collapse because we have a large population of people & we need a large amount of food and without that we will collapse from starvation.
7. Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis is by saying to grow more organic foods.
8. The dangerous catalyst that had made the other crises we have discussed about that spiraled out of control is a change in the climate.
9. I think that people don’t take climate change seriously cause it hasn’t bothered them, if it gets colder we just put a jacket on & don’t even realize that it can be something really serious.
10. The three lessons that can be learned here is,
– Farmers should try to salvage the top layer of soil
– People should be aware that the choices they make everyday effect the nation
- Buy foods that are organic or locally grown

1. the combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted china by eating away 1/3 of its countries farm land
ReplyDelete2. china is caught in a vice grip of its competition because they were trying to grow
3. modern countries cheated nature by adding chemicals in the lands. This was also positive because it increased in agricultural production
4. the modernization of food production also lead a crisis of food production by destroying the topsoil
5. food crisis, water crisis and energy crisis is all connected because is hard to find another resource that can do the same job
6. food is one of the biggest trigger for collapse because the population grows and the more population the faster the food go
7. Jared Diamond proposes to stem food crisis to use organic food for it don't wear down the soil
8. the dangerous catalyst that made the other crisis we have discussed spiral out of control is climate change and natural disaster
9. I think people don't take climate change serious because they don't know the harm it can do
10. 3 lessons that can be learned is watch what type of food we plant, take climate change serious and finally take care of the top soil

3.the modern societies cheated nature because the crops were sprayed and the soil was pumped this caused the crops to become bigger
4.. the modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis because the top soil is being destroyed this will lead to unfertile soil.
5.the energy crisis and water crisis are connected because if one of these starts to decrease then everything will fall with it .
6. food because if food is not produced for a large population then people will starve and it will lead to collapse .
7.some solutions that jared diamond proposes to stem food crisis is we should only have locally grown food so the soil is not worn down
8. i would say climate change .
9.people dont really take climate change seriously until it affects them .
10. make smart choices ,buy locally grown foods,and farmers should take care of the soil they have.
1. Overgrazing and intensive agricutlure has lead to a third of chinas farmland becoming infertile from constanst use.
ReplyDelete2. China has a vice grip of different forces competing against each other, and the exspansion of their desserts.
3. Major countries have pumped streroids and pesticides into the soil and on the plants to induce better results however; negative consequences come from it.
4. Modernizing food production lead to a crisis of infertile land and digging for food. Topsoil is crucial for crop growth and that being destroyed can lead to a food crisis.
5. Crops need water and energy to grow without it it's literally not possible.
6. Food is the quickest trigger for collapse because a population that consist of humans that you know need to eat to stay alive has their crucial resource go dry deaths will occur and rebellion will arise.
7. Jared diamonds method to stern a food crisis is to grow organically
8. The catalyst that made the other crisises spiral out of control were the climate change and the effects it brings to a civilization like drought, death and sometimes destruction.
9. Most don't take climate changer seriously and the domino effect it causes. Putting on a jacket and some layers won't stop the sky from falling on your head and a drought killing a city.
10. Lessons
-Buy organically and save energy
-Every thing you do effects the civlization
-Farmers need to conserve land and treat it like a living ecosystem instead of an machine.
-QURAY CLARKE
1. Agricultural has a negative impact on its land because it's farm land is decreasing in size because of digging.
ReplyDelete2.china has growing population and decreasing farmland.
3. Injected chemicals into land and pumping soil that we feed to grow food.
4. By fertilizing we destroy food we need for food.
5. We need food and water to survive with out water there is no food and with too much food too much water is wasted.
6. With out food people begin to fight for what's left.
7. Grow food locally and have more farmers do what other farmers do.
8. Climate changes make a large impact on land it's self witch can set off an even greater lack of water and food
9.its a huge problem in witch we don't believe will happen in our life time.
10. Some of our cities will be under water, we destroy our land little by little the way we are farming and we will soon run out of land to plant in
1) over grazing can cause a number of things to go wrong with your crops
ReplyDelete2) China is trying to compete with their choices of over population
3) some countries have been injecting chemicals in there crops to help them
4) the large machinery that is use to help farm is damaging the land and can lead to erosion
5) they are all connected because crops need a lot of energy and water to grow and be strong instead of weak
6) food is one of the main reasons for collapse
7) food shouldn't have all those chemicals they should be organic
8) this has to do with the shift in climate
9) I think people take what they have for granted until there isn't any left
10) ~ climate change can be very hazardous
- more food should be organic/healthy
- growing crops takes a lot of work

1) The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture has negatively impacted China by eating away up to one third of the countries farmland.
ReplyDelete2) China was challenged with supporting their expanding population without industrialized farmlands.
3) Modern countries “cheated nature” since the 1950s by spraying the crops and pumping the soil with pesticides to make the crops grow bigger.
4) The modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production by using gigantic machines to cultivate the land, destroying the soil. The topsoil layer of 8 inches was being blown away.
5) We need water to grow our crop which is food.
6) Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because we have a large population and we need a large amount of food and without that we will collapse.
7) Solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem food crisis is that we should only have local grown foods and organic foods so that they don’t wear down the soil.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises spiral out of control is the climate change because it effects every crisis.
9) People think they can survive in any weather. Some people don't see it as a big deal.
10) Lessons that can be taken from this documentary are
- Purchase merchandise in moderation.
- Be aware of the good and bad result from agriculture.
- Reduce the use of greenhouse gases.
- maybe start gardening or buy locally grown food
-
1) the combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture gives a negative impact because crops run out
ReplyDelete2) China is trying to keep there population without industrial farming
3) the technology there using to farm is bad for the crops
4) the chemicals is are distracting the food they eat
5) we need the water for the crops to grow
6) food is one of the biggest reasons why nations collapse
7) the foods we eat should not have chemicals and artificial things inside of them
8) the climate has a large impact on the water and land
9) nations don't take climate change as a problem until it happens
10) the lesson learned is don't use chemicals an fake stuff to put in food , and to be aware of climate change, and garden smart
1. The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted China because 1/3’s of the farmland became infertile and it could take up to 500 years to use the land again.
ReplyDelete2. China caught in a vice grip of competing choices because they had a huge population and no industrialized farmlands. That means that they didn’t have enough food to feed their population.
3. Modern countries “cheated nature” since the 1950s by putting gasoline which gave more fertile land. That helped us grow more food for our growing population.
4. The modernization of food production can lead to a crisis in food production by us using to more water. When we use more water for producing food we are going low on water when people are already trying to get “blue gold”.
5. Problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because you need water to grow food and if you don’t have water you can’t grow food
6. Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because people start rioting is they don’t get food. Jared Diamond said that when he was in Chilly and they were having a food crisis people were rioting.
7. Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis were to have a stable water supply, grow organic food to let the farmers aware about the soil erosion.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is the climate change. The global temperature has gone up 5 degrees than normal.
9. I think people do not take climate change seriously because it’s not affecting them right away unless it is damaging them. An example given by Jared Diamond was that when someone shoots a bullet in a room people empty the room within seconds, meaning when they are in threat is when they react.
10. Valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment of the documentary is to grow food organically, make people seem like global warming is a huge threat to them right now and they need to start taking actions now. And another lesson is to make farmers aware of soil erosion problem because they are the ones growing crops.
1.The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture has negatively impacted the China by eating away the one third of the farmland.
ReplyDelete2.China was caught in a vice grip of competing choices by competing forces including growing population and the expansion of its desert.
3.Modern countries have "cheated nature" since the 1950's by pumping the soil by artificial fertilizer and pesticides. By the end of the century, crops have grew and increased the world population.
4.Modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production by digging deeper and can destroy the soil.
5.All these problems are connected to each other because water makes crops to grow.
6.Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because if we don't have we will collapse and will decrease more population which will result in collapse.
7.Jared Diamond's solutions to stem a food crisis is to grow food organically,
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crisis we have discussed spiral out of control is climate change,
9. I think because many people have not realized that climate change can result in collapse.
10. 3 valuable lessons that can be learned from this documentary are :
- save food
-don't waste food
- work more hard to save food and prevent collapse
------gagandeep Singh---
1. It impacted them by messing with their farming customs
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice group of competing choices Bc of their overpopulation
3. Modern countries have "cheated nature" since the 1950s by putting chemicals into fertile land to make them bigger.
4. It will destroy topsoil and that holds the most nutrients to help crops grows therefore if it's destroyed it will lead to a food crisis.
5. A food and water crisis are connected because if we have no water we won't be able to grow the crops we need.
6. Food is the quickest trigger because without food people will fight and most likely turn to cannibalism for food and that will be our collapse.
7. Jared Diamond's solutions to stem the food crisis are to grow organic food, maintain a stable water supply, and purchase food that is locally produced.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made other crisis' is change in climate.
9. People don't take climate change seriously because it's not an immediate effect.
10. The lessons we can learn is that we should plan ahead of time so that our lifestyle lasts longer.
1-Overgrazing and intensive agriculture has negatively impacted china by making the farmland unusable.
ReplyDelete2-According to the video China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices like deciding what to do with overpopulation
3-According to the video Modern countries "cheated nature" by putting things on the crops to keep bugs and other pests away.
4-The modernization of food production also lead to a crisis in food production because the bugs start to adapt to the pesticides also the machines we use for the crops make things worse.
5-According to all the videos I've watched, problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other by showing how the civilizations can collapse.
6-food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because if something happens to our food supply we would probable die
7-According to the video some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis is that we should have local grown food and organic food also to stop using pesticides.
8-The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is climate change because it effects everything connected to collapse.
9-People don't take climate change seriously because they haven't dealt with the difficulties of having to put up with it.
10-Some valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment is that you can't be too careful, don't waste food, help your community
1. the combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture negatively impacted China that agriculture of farmland became infertile.
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices because china is trying to keep up with supporting their expanding population without using new industrialized farmlands.
3. modern countries “cheated nature” since the 1950s by using artificial fertilizer and pesticides on crops. This was good because people were able to produce more crops than ever before, this was feeding the growing population.
4. the modernization of food production also lead to a crisis in food production because people were destroying their topsoil and also were digging for food. The top soil uses curtain nutrients to help crops grow, without the topsoil crops will not be able to grow.
5. The problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because without water we will not be able to grow any crops.
6. food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because we need to survive without it we'll die.
7. some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis is to grow organic foods.
8. the dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is climate change
9. people do not take climate change seriously because when people think about it is impossible.
10. valuable lessons that can can be learned from this segment of the documentary is grow organic food, save topsoil and save food
1. A combination of overgrazing and intensive impacted china because it had eaten away 1/3 of the countries farm land.
ReplyDelete2.China is caught up in vice grip of competing choices because of poor farmland, its growing population and the expansion its desserts.
3.Modern countries "Cheated nature" since the 1950s by injecting chemicals in marginally productive lands. They began pumping the soil with artificial fertilizer and pesticides. The positive results were that crop yields had increased by five folds which was enough to feed the growing world population.
4.The modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production because we're using gigantic machines to cultivate our lands which was destroying the top soil. The wind was blowing away our top soil which could lead to global food crisis.
5.Food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected because for there to be any food production, we need a good amount of water and energy to produce food production. If we lack in one, it could result in a domino affect. One goes down, all the other fall.
6. Food will trigger the quickest collapse because its the main thing people survive on. If we loose our main resource, it will be the end of our civilization.
7.Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis is
- Have food that is grown locally to reduce transport cost.
-farms have to economically viable.
- Enough water supply for the future
- Food has to be grown as organically as possible(which means little pesticides as possible)
8.The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is the major alterations in climate.
9. People don't take climate change seriously because it does not impose an intimidate or intentional danger to us. People don't see Climate change as a threat, we just brush it off thinking nothing major will come out of it.
10. 3 lessons i have learned is
- Think about the way we do our agriculture
- climate change is a serious matter, and imposes a threat.
- Buy organic products
1.by eating away of one third of the country farmland.
ReplyDelete2.they challenged themselves with supporting their increased population without industrialized farmland.
3.they cheated by injecting chemicals on lands, positive was they began popping soil with artificial fertilizers.
4.because they are digging deeper just for food.
5.water crisis, energy crisis, and food production are connected as culture problems.
6.people need food, need homes that have near by food places.
7.stem food crisis if people don't have food it will cause a crisis.
8.the dangerous catalyst that made they crisis we discussed got of control is a tremendous shift in the climate.
9.they don't take it seriously because they don't think its going to effect them.
10. -be alert
- farmlands should be careful
- the world should be alert of any type of global warning.
According to the documentary overgrazing and intensive agriculture has negatively impacted china by making farmland unsuitable for planting because it makes the soil unusable if people overgraze.
ReplyDeleteChina is troubled by choices like what to do with overpopulation
According to the video Modern countries "cheated nature" by using pesticides to keep bugs away
According to the documentary the modernization of food production also lead to a crisis in food production because the machines we use for the crops make things worse.
According to the documentary problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because the each element plays a part in each of their collapses.
According to the documentary food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because food is an essential element in our race's survival
According to the video some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis is that we shouldn't use pesticides to deal with the bugs that feed on our crops.
The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control is climate change
People don't take climate change seriously because people think that if they've been around the world with different climates they can prevail.
Some valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment is that we should help each other, don't waste food, and the climate is a dangerous thing.
1. Overgrazing and intensive agriculture have negatively impacted china by making one the third of the land infertile.
ReplyDelete2. china was caught in a vice grip of competing choices as a result of trying to maintane their over expanding population even with farmland minimizing.
3. Modern countries have "cheated nature" by injecting chemicals and artificial fertilizers and pesticides into the land to make the soil more rich and fertile. the positive results were that this was working increasjng the production of crops helping feed the whole nation.
4. modernization of food production can lead to a crisis because digging for food resulted in destroying to topsoil which contained many required nutrients to grow new plants.
5. food production, the energy crisis, and wated crisis are all related because water and energy are required to grow food.
6. food is a trigger for collapse because without food, civilians will be unable to survive And go on with expanding the civilization.
7. some stem solutions stated by Jared Diamond include, growing food organically and sustainably. Also farmers must be aware of soil erosion and make sure they have a long lasting wTer supply.
8. climate change is the dangerouse catalyst that made other crises we have discussed spiral out of control.
9. climate change isnt looked at much by people because people have never experianced by them.
10. the lesson learned today is, be aware of water and food crisis always
~Yusuf Ally
1 The combination of the two negatively impacted china cause most of china's farmland became infertile.
ReplyDelete2 china was caught in a vice grip of competing choices cause of thier overpopulation.
3 modern countries " cheated nature " since the 1950's cause there was an injection in the soil & crops. Positive results of this was the increase in food.
4 the modernization of food production also lead to a crisis cause they was destroying the topsoil. The effect that this was making the soil become dry.
5 problems like food production, energy crisis, & water crisis are all connected cause water is needed to grow crops , energy is needed to help them grow healthy , & food production helps a civilization not collapse.
6 food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse cause without food people will die & if too much people die there wont be nobody to rule the empire/civilization
7 some solutions that jared diamond proposes to stem the food crisis was that food should be organically grown , there should be a water supply , & that farmers got to be aware of soil erosion.
8 the dangerous catalyst that made the other crisis we discussed spiral out of control would be climate change.
9 people dont take climate change seriously cause they dont think it would fully effect them till they experience it.
10 valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment of the documentary would be take care of soil , make sure land is fertile , & prepare for climate changes.
1. The combination of overgrazing and intensive agriculture has negatively impacted China by eating away one-third of their farmland
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices due to growing population and expansion of deserts
3. Modern countries have "cheated nature" since the 1950's by injecting chemicals into largely productive lands such as pumping soils with artificial fertilizers and pesticides. Positive results include the increase in crop fields and having enough to feed the growing world population.
4. The modernization of food production can also lead to a crisis in food production by the billions of topsoil being blown away yearly and we need the nutrients provided from our topsoil
5. Problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to one another because we need energy to stretch out our food production and without water, food will become scarce.
6. Food is one of the quickest triggers of collapse because of our large growing population and we need a large amount of food, more and more over time, and without it humans will face starvation quickly leading to a collapse.
7. Some solutions that Jared Diamond proposes to stem the food crisis are to start growing organic food, have a stable water supply for the future and farmers should be weary of soil erosion.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we've discussed spiral out of control is climate change.
9. I think people do not take climate change seriously because they don't believe that the change in climate will have such a serious effect on them because as humans, being the dominant species, they believe they can adapt to any weather or changes in our environment due to their amount of "knowledge".
10. Valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment of the documentary are to be prepared for climate change, start considering alternative ways to grow your food in order to save our soil and have enough food ready for our large growing population.

9- I think people do not take climate change seriously because they believe that they can get past through it, little do they know is that it can really affect them at some point in their life, leading their nation to a future collapse.
10-Three valuable lesson from this documentary:
-always be prepared for the good and bad times.
-always be aware of climate change.
-should produce wisely on farmlands
1) The consequence of overgrazing and intensive agriculture is that a third of the farmland became infertile.
ReplyDelete2) China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices due to growing population and expansion of desert.
3) According to the video Modern countries cheated nature by using pesticides to keep bugs away and also by using other chemicals on soil.

7) One of Jared Diamonds solution was to grow organic food to let the farmers aware about the soil erosion.
8) The catalyst that made the other crises spiral out of control is climate change.
9) People do not take climate change seriously because they think nothing big will happen.
10) Grow organic food is a valuable lesson that can be learnd watching this video.

10. 3 valuable lessons that can be learned from this documentary are :
- save food
-don't waste food
- work more hard to save food and prevent collapse
1) I agree that there is a connection between the increase in the number of movies about natural disasters and the fact that people have finally started to think more carefully about climate change, because movies help realize the impact of climate change more visually. You can see what would happen in the future, so people are encouraged to prepare for climate change.
ReplyDelete2) The surprise that underlies the permafrost of Alaska is ancient carbon. This can help the current energy crisis by tipping the balance of the civilization.
3) Climate change is costly from an economic standpoint because it's estimated to be trillions of dollars.
4) Choices people make during years of prosperity lead to a bigger bust by taking huge financial risks.
5) I agree that most people have a boom mentality than a boom and bust mentality, because people usually don't think outside the box or plan for the future.
6) I think the financial crisis of 2008 was a sign of more bad things to come, because the government didn't help at all in the bad times. Many people lost their jobs and even their homes.
7) Romes economic crisis and the economic crisis in 2008 are similar, because the people in power in both areas didn't pay attention to their people. They're different, because rome was more focused on the gladiator fights.
8) The collapse of Rome was inevitable, because with the leader of Rome they were heading to a collapsed civilization. The Roman Empire was mainly focused on the gladiator fights, expanding, and about the wealthy people.
9) I think our society will dissolve into the same violence and chaos that Rome did, because our society is very corrupt. We have great opportunities, but everyone is corrupt and does anything for money. Eventually, when the people realize they'll try to make change and there's going to be violence and chaos.
10) Valuable lessons that can be learned from this segment of the documentary are to never underestimate climate change, make the right choices that benefit you in the long run, and violence is never the answer.

1. Overgrazing and intensive agriculture has negatively impacted china because the soil was not no longer fertile; it took up 1/3 of china’s agriculture land. The top soil had become so weak and dry that the longer time took the larger the land opened into a vast desert.
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choice by having to deal with both overgrowing population and expansions of their desert.
3. Modern countries cheated nature by injecting chemicals into largely productive lands and they began pumping soil with artificial fertilizers and pesticides.
4. Modernization leads to a crisis in the food production process because from all the chemicals put into the land to help crops grown was also destroying the top soil that the land needs to stay healthy.
5. Energy, food, and water crisis’s are all the same because the agriculture land needs water and food is produced through the use of all three, so they’re all needed to sustain a healthy life.
6. Food is the quickest triggers for collapse because if people don’t have food it will be a problem the next day, the shelves are bare, and food looks rotten, food has to be grown sustainably, it has to be a water supply to have a clear future.
7. Jared diamond propose that we
8. The dangerous catalyst was climate control.
9. I think people don’t take climate change seriously because you wouldn’t think the world was created to be destructed by man .
10. I learned that if you over use or over mess with something it won’t make I better but only worst. I also l also learned that dead plant life in the ocean can be cause from over carbon dioxide in the water.
1. The negative consequence of overgrazing and intensive agriculture is that a third of the farmland became infertile.
ReplyDelete2. China is caught in a vice grip of competing choices according to their growing population and the expansion of it's desserts.
3. Modern countries have “cheated nature” since the 1950s by injecting chemicals into fertile land and by using fertilizers and pesticides in the soil.
4. The modernization of food production can lead to a crisis in food production by us using to more water. When we use more water for producing food we are going low on water when people are already trying to get “blue gold”.
5. A food and water crisis are connected. Because if there no water, we will have nothing to grow crops because we need water for food. Which will lead to collapse.
6. Food is the quickest triggers because there is it not a lot of food on the plantation because other nations need some of those foods which means that the nation are going to go to a different country to feed their family and themselves.
7. Jared Diamond's solutions to stem the food crisis are to purchase food that is locally produced, to grow organic food, farmers need to be weary of soil erosion, have a stable water supply, and be economically realistic.
8. The dangerous catalyst that made the other crisis we have discussed spiral out of control is the change in climate.
9. I believe that people do not highly regard changes in the climate because, they have the mentality that our nation is invincible, and they haven't truly experienced severe climate changes that can make our society fall.
10. valuable lessons can be learned from this segment of the documentary is grow organic food, save topsoil and save food.
1.over grazing can cause a number of things to go wrong with your crops.

1. Overgrazing and intensive agriculture impacted negatively impacted China by taking away one third of China's farming land.
ReplyDelete2. China already had problems on their hands like trying to produce enough for the population when they're overpopulated.
3. Modern countries had used chemicals in the fertile land and using fertilizer on the soil. Positive results were that it helped produce more food for the overpopulated country.
4. Since modern countries are using chemicals on the land, it can make the crops that they dig up less healthier. Plus the nutrients are all found in topsoil which we are digging up to find food. Without the nutrients, the food supply would start to become limited due to the decrease in growth of food.
5. Problems in all three connect to each other because the three rely on each other. When there's problems with water supply, it can affect if the crops will grow that gives us the food. Then if the energy goes out, how will the food get to where it needs to go.
6. The exporting of food to the third world nations will cause farmlands to become extinct.
7. Some solutions is to grow organically and to buy food that are locally produced.
8. The climate change is the dangerous catalyst.
9. Us Americans think it's always avoidable so we don't focus on the serious problems but there will be a day that we can't bounce back because there was no plan.
10. Focus on serious problems, Be prepared, start listening to Jared Diamond.
1. The negative consequence of overgrazing and intensive agriculture is that a third of the farmland became infertile.
ReplyDelete2.china was trying to get the population all the food they could produce.
3- Modern countries have “cheated nature” since the 1950s by injecting chemicals into marginally productive lands. They began pumping the soil with artificial fertilizers and pesticides. The positive results were that crop yields had increased five fold, feeding a growing world population.
4. Modernizing food production can also entail a food crisis because, while in the process of digging for food, topsoil is being dispersed; major nutrients to help plants develop are in topsoil, and without those nutrients our food will not sprout, transitioning into a crisis.
5. Problems like food production, the energy crisis and the water crisis are all connected to each other because in order to produce food you need water and in order to produce the food and water you need energy.
6. Food is one of the quickest triggers for collapse because people start rioting is they don’t get food. Jared Diamond said that when he was in Chilly and they were having a food crisis people were rioting.
7:Jared Diamond's solution was to grow organic food, have a stable water supply water and food has to be sustain-ably grown.
8.The dangerous catalyst that made the other crises we have discussed spiral out of control by having climate change and global warming.
9) I think people take what they have for granted until there isn't any left
10.the lessons we can learn is we ahould pay more attention to what is happening to the climate changes
1) ovegrazing & intensive agriculture is that it has been destroying chinas farmland
ReplyDelete2)growing population & expansion of deserts
3) modern countries have cheated nature by injecting chemicals into largely productive lands
4) modernization of food product can lead to top soil being blown away
5) food production, energy crisis and water crisis are connected because if they continue they can all end a civilization
6) food is the biggest trigger in a collapse because it extremely effects a big population that keeps growing
7) Jared diamond suggest that we grow me organic food
8) It controlled climate and weather change
9) Americans take advantage of what they have and dont think of long term effects from what they do
10) the lesson we should learn is to pay close attention to little things that change in the environment

ReplyDeletenegatively impact china by has eating away of one third of the country farmland.
ReplyDelete2.china was trying to get the population all the food they could produce.
3.they cheated nature by injecting chemicals on lands.the positive was that they began popping soil with artificial fertilizers and pesticides.
4.this could lead to a crisis of food because of them digging deeper just for food.
5. Water crisis,energy crisis and the food production are all connected to each other because they are culture problems.
6. Due to nations exporting mass food amounts to other less fortunate nations, in eventuality farmlands will cease to exist. This makes food an easy collapse cause.
7. Jared Diamond's solutions to stem the food crisis are to purchase food that is locally produced, to grow organic food, farmers need to be weary of soil erosion, have a stable water supply, and be economically realistic.
8. The treacherous stimulus that has made other crises become chaotic is an alteration in the climate.
9. I believe that people do not highly regard changes in the climate because, they have the mentality that our nation is invincible, and they haven't truly experienced severe climate changes that can make our society fall.
10. Lessons that can be taken from this documentary are:
- Purchase merchandise in moderation.
- Be weary of not only the good that can result from agriculture, but also the bad.
- Reduce the use of greenhouse gases, and think about how they are shaping the environment.
