Bad Crops? Replant? Maybe...

Posted by Flora Sawita Labels: , , ,

The problem with soil erosion is that it takes away land where food can be planted for us to eat. If there is no land or the land is not able to be used, then prices for goods go up and supply for goods goes down. No matter where you stand on the topic of the environment, this is an issue of economics. Simple supply and demand from erosion is what will ultimately drive change!

Think about how much you are willing to pay for something like ketchup or even bbq sauce. The horror!!! Don't raise the price of my bbq sauce. Well unfortunately it will happen if the land that grows the crop which yields the ingredients to make my beloved bbq sauce.

Would you be willing to pay more for your favorite goods because of an issue that could be resolved if we just banded together to create solutions to curb soil erosion? What are some of your favorite foods you would be sad to live without?

Welcome to the EcoMerge official Blog site, the companion to the EcoMerge website in Google Pages. EcoMerge is an ongoing term-by-term project of the Multimedia Capstone class at Portland State University. Our Goal: To research and recommend ways to understand the relational balance between Ecology and Economy. Each term a different class will take on their own specific relevant topic and then work to spread word of the project to interested parties. In all cases the objective remains the same - to inspire individuals to understand and to take action.
