final post

The meal I have written about previously is a meal classified as a solution. My meal contributed to the soulution of global problem because I didn't have to rely on commercial agrivulture, which uses up a vast majorty of fresh water, and causes rapid soil depletion, and can also cause contamination to aqufiers, via leeching from the fertilizer used to help promote growth. The garden in which my meal came from used no such fertilizers, nor did it use an excess amount of fresh water, because it mainly relied on rain storms, and was only hand watered when absolutly necessary.
It contributed to the solution of the local problem because as stated above it took my reliance on global food markets out of the equation. But at a more in depth look it helped minimize the contamination from water run-off because there was nothing used that could cause contamination.
It contributed to the solution of problems at the micro scale of my household because it saved us money, and it also kept us healthy because there was no contamination from run-off in our well water, as our garden is extremly close to our well.
