FK Food for Thought Unit#2 Action Project " Modern Problems Require Modern Solutions"

Hello reader, this is my unit to Action project for “ Food for thought”. food for thought is my third term, freshman year Humanities class at GCE lab school. We've done some pretty cool things in this class. In particular we went on some pretty awesome field experiences. Those consist of a trip to a place called plant Chicago where we're introduced to an aquaponics system. Also, we went to a place called Uncommon Ground which is a restaurant / rooftop garden where we interacted with many nutritious plants, and a really awesome radiant hydronic thermal solar system. For this project I was assigned to write an opinion paper on one of the subcategories of SDG 2 ( I chose 2.1 “ No Hunger”) And propose a solution to help the cause. I explained my solution in my speech. Enjoy! Script: 2.1 is a concept I think about quite often, and I believe that the UN's approach to achieving this, and the date they have given themselves to achieve it, are absolutely ridiculous.  Here's...

FK Unit#2 Action Project For food Class "Recipe substitution"

Introduction:  Hello reader, this is my unit#2 action project for food class. In food class we have done some pretty cool experiments, field experiences, and group discussions. We went to a restaurant/rooftop garden called Uncommon Ground where we interacted with the plants and their really cool garden systems like their drip irrigation system, and radiant hydronic thermal solar heating system. as far as experiments go, we did stuff like make brownies with applesauce instead of egg to see if it work as an emulsifying agent, or when we mixed baking soda with vinegar to see if it would make an efficient leavening agent compared to baking powder with just water, or when we switched out ground beef for mashed lentils in a meatball recipe ( it was so good). Which brings me to the project. The assignment was to switch out either a leavening agent, emulsifying agent, or a protein source. for another one ( like in previous experiments). I am substituting a leavening agent. I will be switch...
