Where Can I Get My Food?

I really did find this activity surprising because i thought that many of the products we had on the tables were packed here in California but i found that just 3 items were packaged here in California. All the other items were packaged in other states of the U.S and one item was out of the country. It would be really hard to get all of these items because all of them are far away. I need to find a local farmers market that has some of these items since now they wont be shipping them to the local markets around my neighborhood. I also wouldn't want to travel 2000 miles just to get my Sprite soda!!I need to start shopping at farmers markets more often now that i think these local markets are going to close down. Or i should start growing my own produce in my backyard now that these fruits and vegetables are hard to find nowadays.

I have researched a bit and i found the nearest farmers market which is in the city of Pasadena. I don't know how i am going to get over there, but i will try to go and get all of the food i need.

Our Resources Make Our Living

Well i think that if airplane flights were to be canceled their would be social problems because people wouldn't find another way to travel faster because cars are small and don't travel as fast as the airplanes. Trains are big but they cannot travel over sea. If all gas stations were to be closed down people would have to look for other types of transportation that do not need gas.

I feel bad about giving up on these goods and services but if we are not going to have them anymore then why wait for them. I am going to get my bike and start walking to where i want to go now that we are losing these services.

I am scared of losing the food, water, and power because without these things we would all die. We need food and water to survive and not die of hunger, if there is no power then we wouldn't be able to do anything without it. There would be less jobs now that there is no power. If layoffs continue to increase then i don't know what kinds of jobs we will need to find in order to have money in our pockets.

My family and i are planning to leave all our wants behind because we really need the things that will help us survive and not the things we don't need. I am planning to save all of my resources so that i can use them whenever i need them.

Supply and Demand

Supply is the the amount of product people would sell and what price they would sell if for so people can buy it.
Demand is what the people decide to buy from the sellers and what they are willing to pay for that product.

Something interesting i read from the oil quiz is that there is a lot of countries in the world who produce oil but some of the countries have less oil than others. Something surprising from the oil quiz is that i got 4 questions correct and 8 wrong. I also found it surprising that the worlds oil production cant seem to increase until 2030.

Uses of Oil

As i read an article i was surprised that almost everything we use in a daily basis has to do with oil. The water bottle we drink off, is made of petrochemicals that are found in oil as well as the medicine bottles are made from the same petrochemicals. I also didn't know that some of the fibers we wear in our clothes are made of some petrochemicals found in oil. If we lose oil we would use many of the biggest transportations which are cars, planes, and ships. I dont know how we would travel without these three types of transportations.

Life Without My Soccer Ball!

My friend Jorge called me up so we can go play some soccer but Jorge said he didnt have a soccer ball and i didnt neither. We decided to pitch in to buy a new one at the nearest store. We asked the salesperson for a soccer ball and she said that they had ran out and no more soccer balls are going to be made! The reason was because of this really bad oil shortage around the world! Now soccer is not going to exist, it is no longer a sport becuase of oil. My favorite sport is now gone and memories are left behind. =[
