Food, Inc.

In order to get credit for this project you must watch the following film and submit completed movie worksheet: 

Food, Inc.

Do you know where your food comes from? This 2008 documentary by Robert Kenner examines corporate farming in the US and describes in detail the industry of food production in America, some of our governments policies concerning food and its production, and the costs and effects of the industrial food system. I promise you that this documentary is so good that you won't be able to walk away once you start. I included it here for two reasons: 1.) It discusses many of our government's policies toward food and what choices you as a citizen have. 2.) This is the kind of stuff that turns people into political activists...you'll see as you watch.  Project Credit:  Download the movie worksheet attached here and submit the filled-in worksheet.

 I found this film completely fascinating both times I watched it, but I should issue you a warning: watching Food, Inc may cause you to change your eating and purchasing habits. Enjoy!
