Industrial farming

Although the agricultural advances we have made help produce large quanities of food, they are harmful to the environment. It takes a lot of energy, water, and other natural resources to produce the crops. Also, many fossil fuels are burned causing a lot of polution that can cause many health effects. Also pesticides that are dangerous to humans could leak out into rivers and streams that are used for drinking water. These trends are very risky, but they are risks we have to take. Too many people rely on these industrial farms for food to stop these methods of production.
