Final exploration-Zach Padovan

The most important theme to me in this documentary is that you should always keep an open mind and take your health seriously. It is very important to not just stick with the mainstream way of eating fast food and not trying to find out where your food is coming from. Americans are to worried about doing things the quick and easy way and are actually less concerned with what could affect them long term in regards to their health, and that is a very scary reality. The evidence is most convincing when we see how the animals should be raised and then when you see how they are actually are raised. It's incredible how the raising of the animals in mass feed lots and chicken coops are so much different from the way they should be raised. It actually is depressing to see how little care is put into tacking care of the animals that will eventually feed millions of Americans.

I do feel that in the film they present an element of fear that is actually disproportional to the actual threat. They do bring up good points and have very striking evidence, but it's extraordinarily biased. It is a very pressing issue that needs attention but the film did make it seem that the world might end if actions aren't taken immediately. I believe that people are completely in control of themselves it is up to them to fix their own health issues. A business is there to make money and if it's at the extent of other people.
