Not enough fruit and veggies to go around??? What???

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/10/181025151042.htm

Studies show that if everyone in the world wanted to eat healthy, we would not have enough fruits and vegetables to sustain us. The world overproduces things like fat, sugar, and salt because people like those things. If everyone ate healthy, we would need a lot less land to grow fruits and veggies.

I am very surprised by this. I never thought about this happening, but its a good thing we all like to eat crappy food. I think this will almost never happen because mcdonalds and all these processed foods are what people enjoy. If this does happen I believe scientists will find a way to feed us all, probably through GMOs and all that.

    There are many problems in the word but never would I of thought that our next clash would be about not having enough fruits and vegetables. If we want to be a successful economy, we need to find solutions around this problem and really need to take more consideration into it if we all want to continue living healthy as a whole.

    It is not surprising that there is not enough fruits and veggies for the world's population due to so many people's unhealthy diets. Companies cater to these types of people who eat unhealthily, and they are using their resources to produce these products instead of healthier options. It will be interesting to see if this changes anything or if it will be resolved.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
