Your opinion: Should farming hurt the environment? |
|---|
|
Hello Friends,
Recently I participated in the Canadian National Debate Seminar. This was a great event that brought together youth from all across Canada to the agriculture hub of North America: Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan is one of the greenest provinces in Canada, because it depends upon nature for its economy. We had to debate upon the theme of agriculture, and since agriculture is linked to the environement, many of our debate topics were linked to the environment. I was able to learn lots about agriculture and the environment. I would love to share some of the facts we debated upon and learned at the event and get your opinion on it:
So, after reading these facts what do you think? Should the industries that depend so much on the environment be hurting it? Regards, Nitish Bhatt Founder and volunteer at United4Literacy Tunza Ambassador of Canada

Thanks for the additional input Nitish :-) It seems like organic farming is still a much better option than current style!

Yes...We discussed organic farms at the event. Organic farms use organic fertilizers which are significantly better for environment. But, organic fertilizers and toxins present in it is what caused the water contamination in Waterloo. Still, these incidents are very rare and are influenced by other factors aside from farming, and in contrast to factory farms, organic farms are definitely better on the whole for the environment. Thanks for that insight Christy!

Well, I know small-sized organic farms are getting more and more generalized in the States.
Can it be a good alternative for the nature?
