Kids are going back to school and so is the ground beef filler dubbed “pink slime.” Thousands of schools across the U.S. rushed last year to stop feeding their students meat that contained the ammonia-treated beef, known by industry as lean finely textured beef.
Schools stopped serving the pink slim and now they are bringing it back into schools.

Pink slime
A dysphemism for lean finely textured beef or LFTB, finely textured beef, and boneless lean beef trimmings or BLBT, is a meat-based product used as a food additive to ground beef and beef-based processed meats, as a filler or to reduce the overall fat content of ground beef.

But as schools across the country grapple with tight budgets, some are changing their minds and accepting the lower-price alternative product that brings down the price of the food they serve.
Because of low budget, schools are almost forced to go back to USDA for ground beef.
-
Schools have the option to request the type of beef they want to serve and USDA fulfills those orders,” Black said.
Schools have the option if they want to sell these products. they dont have too but they do because they all cheaper. Either the school is cheep or the School district is cheap

Why speak so highly of the pink slime being done and over with but then bring it back into the schools. It's no purpose of doing that.

Food begins to lose nutrition as soon as it is harvested
Locally grown foods are more nutritious.

Buy local, shrink the distance food travels, save the planet.
Save the planet by buying food that is closer to you. Your saving the planet by having foods with more nutrition.

One analysis, by Rich Pirog of the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture, showed that transportation accounts for only 11% of food’s carbon footprint.
This proves the idea that because the product is closer it is less harmful to the environment when the the transportation take just 11% of the total energy expended so regardless of distance it's affect on the food's carbon footprint is really small
-
Food begins to lose nutrition as soon as it is harvested. Fruit and vegetables that travel shorter distances are therefore likely to be closer to a maximum of nutrition.
Food traveling short distance have more nutrition

The one big problem with thinking beyond food miles is that it’s hard to get the information you need.

Take lamb. A 2006 academic study (funded by the New Zealand government) discovered that it made more environmental sense for a Londoner to buy lamb shipped from New Zealand than to buy lamb raised in the U.K. This finding is counterintuitive — if you’re only counting food miles. But New Zealand lamb is raised on pastures with a small carbon footprint, whereas most English lamb is produced under intensive factory-like conditions with a big carbon footprint. This disparity overwhelms domestic lamb’s advantage in transportation energy.
I agree that the argument that the locacvore movement is not "greener" and that the time and effort used to raise an animal ex. lamb is more counterproductive than just buying from the normal provider

Carefully read the following seven sources, including the introductory information for each source.
As you read each of these 7 sources you need to annotate each so that your essay is based in fact and not in opinion. Having annotations gives you something to go back to when you need to find support for your argument. The following are types of annotations you could make: Circle unfamiliar words or references. Mark passages with symbols like question or exclamation marks. Highlight important lines or sections. Connect parts of the text to other parts with arrows. Note emotional reactions. Post questions. Make connections to other texts or to their own lives. Summarize difficult concepts. Add related images. Add links to related information. Note how the piece is structured, or how the author uses language in interesting ways. React to the content over all. Note patterns, themes and motifs.
-
You may cite the sources as Source A, Source B, etc., or by using the descriptions in parentheses.
How is the writer expected to cite his or her sources.
-
Make sure that your argument is central
Clarification that the writing task is argumentative and not simply informational.
