Farming is a major contributor towards the enhanced Enhanced Greenhouse Effect. Methane is one of the most powerful and harmful gases which are released in vast quantities through the farming process. || __**BLACK HAT**__ **What are the problems/ consequence for our world if nothing is done about your chosen issue?** If nothing is done about this, the Enhanced Greenhouse gas effect will rise and Planet Earth will eventually get over heated and we'll all....DIE. The plastic packaging from the meat that is processed affects the sustainability because it clogs up our landfills and || ** __ YELLOW HAT __ What is currently being done to address your issue? ** I don't think any action is being taken on this issue as the demand for meat is really high and no one is willing to say anything against this issue. || Rachel** I am shocked by how much farming contributes to our environment. Apart from slaughtering animals I didn't know that methane from cows are also a problem for our environment. Before, I didn't really understand why farming is a major problem for our earth but this inquiry made me understand. I never knew and really honestly cared about over farming and never realized that it was such a big issue towards our environments' sustainability. Now i know shocking things that happen through the farming procedure and I am sure to change some part of my diet to benefit the planets sustainability. || ** __GREEN HAT__ What are some things your group could do to address your issue in our community?** Encourage others to eat less red meat and to buy locally grown food.

Have farmers produce less cows so that less cow methane is released into the air. The government could also reduce the amount of food brought over from other countries because the transport releases carbon dioxide which also contributes to the enhanced greenhouse effect. || __**BLUE HAT**__ **Write down your plan for your SO WHAT?! stage as a result of what you have learnt from your inquiry so far.
