Being directly implied in the eyesores of war, it seems that a significant part of his creation subsequent to the Great War was inspired from his personal interactions with the battlefield. "I have suffered seventh hell" or "carnage incomparable" (Powell 1) are lines extracted from his letters sent home while he was in front-line the Beaumont Hamel area
(Clarke xxv). There is a simple, but great line which remains for me the perfect reference towards wars: "Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn"- Robert Burns (Manwaring 1)
Pinkerton purchased the rights to Butterfly for one hundred yen -- in modern currency, equivalent to about…sixty-six cents. So he's feeling pretty pleased with himself… (Hwang, 5) The rest of the plot, which he will also summarize, is fairly simple: Butterfly falls in love with Pinkerton, who abandons her
The West is the spectator, the judge and jury, of every facet of Oriental behavior. (Said 108-9)
This confinement lasts for several months and is ended with the animal being slaughtered. (Eckholm, 2010)Finally, there is the widespread use of corn as feed in animals whose natural diet is grass
In the end these poor animals must then suffer through a slaughtering process that is as inhumane as the living conditions. (Eisnitz, 2006) Specific abuses include the cramming of hens into cages so small that they cannot spread their wings and using steroids to promote growth
(New York Times, 2001) The health care industry is buckling under the estimated $117 billion cost that is associated with the care of this obese population. (General, 2007) Even more disturbing is the severe increase in the rate of obesity among children in America
These foods, although fast and easy, are linked to obesity, have been associated with increased risk of cancer, diabetes, and general overeating. (Goldhammer. Alan) (Tsang) (Mercola) (Tsang G
One study released in 2000 estimated that nearly ten percent of all the energy used in the United States was consumed by the food industry. (Heller, 2000)
An article published in 2006 in the Journal of Public Health Policy puts the number as high as $10 billion annually. (Lewin, 2006) Clearly one of the main reasons for the increase in obesity can be traced to massive amounts of advertising done by the food industry
The industry has made some efforts to curtail the level of its contribution to this type of pollution but, despite these efforts, agriculture remains the number one cause. (Marks, 2001) The food industry in America is not only causing damage to our environment through its practices it is also producing and promoting food products that are causing Americans significant health problems
com) Growth that is so rapid that it causes a chicken that would ordinarily reach full adulthood in approximately three months to do so in only three weeks. (Mench, 2001) The forced confinement of pigs and young calves in cages designed to restrict all their movement
These foods, although fast and easy, are linked to obesity, have been associated with increased risk of cancer, diabetes, and general overeating. (Goldhammer. Alan) (Tsang) (Mercola) (Tsang G
Processed foods lack natural vitamins and minerals that ensure proper growth, vitality, health, prevention or even cure some chronic diseases such as cancer. (O'Brien, 2009) Further confusing the issue is the widespread abuse of the animals used by the food industry to produce their products
Farming today is the product of large corporations who have monopolized the resources of food production and forced farmers to follow corporate guidelines of production or face eventual bankruptcy. (Ozeki, 1999) It probably should not be surprising that an industry that abuses animals, exploits farmers, and promotes bad health should also be suspected of abusing its own workers but substantial evidence to that effect has come into focus
The transportation of said food is estimated to have added 30,800 tons of greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere. (Pimentel, 2008) The use of fossil fuels and the resulting global warming effects are not the only environmental concerns that are brought about by the production of food
(General, 2007) Even more disturbing is the severe increase in the rate of obesity among children in America. (Tartamella, 2006) Food makers spend some $1
These foods, although fast and easy, are linked to obesity, have been associated with increased risk of cancer, diabetes, and general overeating. (Goldhammer. Alan) (Tsang

" "The food industry would love to explain obesity as a problem of personal responsibility, since it takes the onus off them for marketing fast food, soft drinks, and other high-calorie, low quality products, Ludwig says. (Wroth) Obesity in America has reached epidemic levels
