        Bad Land, No Crops. This is what the caption should be for this image. Food Sovereignty is the right of people to define their own food systems. It emphasizes the importance of local control over food production, distribution, and consumption, ensuring that communities have the power to make decisions about their food sources. This concept goes beyond food security, by advocating for the rights of small-scale farmers, sustainable agricultural practices, and the preservation of local food cultures.        I wanted to share this topic in my blog because the fact that people don't have this basic right in countries like Honduras, Colombia, Chile, and countries in the Global South. These countries often face issues such as land grabbing, lack of access to resources for small-scale farmers, and policies that favor large-scale industrial agriculture over local, sustainable practices. If we really start to think about why this is so bad for the p...

      Have your ever heard of something called Extreme Ironing? Well, it is exactly what is sounds like, ironing clothes in extreme and often dangerous locations. I felt that this was very unusual, I have never actually heard of this before until a couple of weeks ago. This unusual sport combines the task of ironing with the adrenaline rush of extreme sports. Participants, known as "ironists", take their ironing boards to places like mountain tops, underwater, while skydiving, or even in the middle of a busy street.     This sport was reportedly invented in 1997 by a man named Phil Shaw, a resident of Leicester, England. Shaw decided to take his ironing board into his backyard garden to add a bit of excitement to the task. This simple act sparked the idea of combining ironing with adventure, and thus, extreme ironing was born.      For most people, this sport of extreme ironing is a way to break the same cycle of everyday chores and to add a sense...

      Fresh is a documentary that dives into the difficulties of the American food system, highlighting the challenges and successes of sustainable food production. This film is a call to action for consumers and farmers to rethink the way we produce and consume our food.      The tone of this film is informative and inspiring. It was made to educate viewers about the current state of the food system while also highlighting the potential for positive change through sustainable practices. It guides you through a sense of urgency regarding the issues. This is encouraging viewers to take action and support sustainable food production. The parts of this film that grabbed my interest very quickly was when the film was showing what farmers have to do to get healthy grass and feed for their cattle and other animals. The process they have to go through seems very time consuming and almost impossible to me. I feel that this film really was needed because yes farmers...

       This semester I took a Psychology class. I realized that there are so many things that I didn't understand about psychologists and psychology all together. 1.       A misunderstanding that I had about psychologists before taking PSY101 is that Psychologists only listen to people and prescribe or diagnose. In this Psychology class I have learned that Psychologists really do way more than that, they honestly research anything they want or what they specialize in whether that is the human brain or the environment and so much more and they create and do experiments to create ideas. 2.      In some of the chapters in this Psychology class I have learned about different psychologists and what they have done and how they have impacted the beliefs and psychology in the world, Biopsychology, states of consciousness within a human, our sensation and perception, the way we learn, our thinking and intelligence, and how our memory works...
