3  Culture  Ethnic Group (Heritage)  Lifestyle  Media  Resources  Technology  Etiquette  Cultural Etiquette  Dietary

4  What do you think influences the choices you make about food?

5  Geography  Culture  Environment  Economics

6  Transportation Costs  Importing and Exporting Foods  In a T-Chart – list some benefits and disadvantages of both importing and exporting foods.

7  Where does our food come from?  How does our environment affect our food choices? › Climate change › Local foods › Sustainable foods › Conditions in which livestock is raised

8  http://www.fao.org/climatechange/16606- 05afe43bd276dae0f7461e8b9003cb79.pdf http://www.fao.org/climatechange/16606- 05afe43bd276dae0f7461e8b9003cb79.pdf  Read the following article and summarize how climate is impacting our environment.  *note – this will be faster if you work in partners or small groups.

9  What does it mean to grow local?  How does buying local benefit a community?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGA 24_SjLDg - veggie box delivery https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGA 24_SjLDg  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_wx --fWSXU - Guerilla Gardening https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_wx --fWSXU

10  What does it mean to eat local?  What does it mean for food to be sustainable?

11  Sustainable Food Definition – Foods that should be produced, processed and traded in ways that:  Contribute to thriving local economies and sustainable livelihoods  Protect the diversity of both plants and animals (and the welfare of farmed and wild species), and avoid damaging natural resources and contributing to climate change;  Provide social benefits, such as good quality food, safe and healthy products, and educational opportunities.  http://www.sustainweb.org/sustainablefood/what_is_sus tainable_food/

12  Fish Farming – based on the picture, why do you think Fish Farming is a bad idea?  Free Range - Free range birds must have access to the outdoors. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHBHU2jLn8I - pigs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHBHU2jLn8I  Free Run - Free run is different than free range in that chickens do not necessarily need to be raised outside but they are required to be able to move around freely within the barn.

14  How does our culture impact our food choices? › Individually? › As a society?

15  What is economics? › unemployment, low wages, landlessness, high food prices, lack of access to credit  How would our economics influence our food choices? › Individually? › As a society?

16  Create a chart with the columns: geography, culture, environment, economics, availability and origin.  Choose a food (any food) and fill in the chart with how each section influences our choice of that food.  Be prepared to share your answers.

17  Do you remember?  I will be able to explain how various factors influence personal and societal food choices.

18  I will be able to explain why specific foods are served on various special occasions in Canada and in different countries.

19  What are some Canadian holidays that you know? What food is associated with each of those holidays?

20  What are some ways that immigration to Canada has affected our food choices?

21  What are some holidays in your culture?  What types of foods would be served?

22  Choose a holiday and create a typical menu for that holiday.  The twist – your menu must be a visual representation.

23

24  I will be able to explain how colonization and globalization has impacted consumer food choices and culture.

25  What is it?  How could globalization impact our food choices?

26  History of Globalization  For thousands of years people have been trading goods and travelling across great distances. During the Middle Ages, merchants travelled along the Silk Road, which connected Europe and China.  The modern age of globalization started with the Industrial Revolution at the end of the 18th century. New machines were able to produce cheaper goods. Trains and steam-powered boats transported products farther and faster.  Since 1980, globalization has been moving at a faster pace. Today it is easier for companies to work in other countries. The Internet gives them the chance of reaching more customers around the world. Teleworkers work for firms that may be far away.

27 The GOOD side  Globalization lets countries do what they can do best. If, for example, you buy cheap steel from another country you don’t have to make your own steel. You can focus on computers or other things.  Globalization gives you a larger market. You can sell more goods and make more money. You can create more jobs.  Consumers also profit from globalization. Products become cheaper and you can get new goods more quickly. Larger variety of goods.

28 The Bad Side  Globalization causes unemployment in industrialized countries because firms move their factories to places where they can get cheaper workers.  Globalization may lead to more environmental problems. A company may want to build factories in other countries because environmental laws are not as strict as they are at home. Poor countries in the Third World may have to cut down more trees so that they can sell wood to richer countries.  Some of the poorest countries in the world, especially in Africa, may get even poorer. Their population is not as educated as in developed countries and they don’t have the new technology that we do.  Human, animal and plant diseases can spread more quickly through globalization.

29 List 5:  Positives of Globalization?  Negatives of Globalization?

30  Definition – › To create a colony › A group of emigrants or their descendants who settle in a distant area but remain subject to or closely associated with the parent country. › to migrate, take control of (an area) and send people to live there E.g. England created new settlements in the United States

31

32 1. Who were the major countries in control of each continent in 1754, 1800, and 1914? 2. In what ways do you think the colonies have influenced the culture of its country? E.g. India was once a British colony. 3. In what ways do you think the changing colonies could have influenced the culture of it’s colony. E.g. North America had colonies from France, United Kingdom, Spain and Russia

33  How has globalization impacted our food choices and culture?  How has colonization impacted our food choices and culture?

34  I will be able to describe the origins and development of food traditions and agricultural practices in a variety of cultures

35  Step 1: In your groups find the information I give you. Everyone in your group needs a copy of the work.  Step 2: You will now split up your group and form new groups.  Step 3: You will explain to your new group the information on food traditions that you have gathered.  Step 4: write down the information your classmates have given you.  By the end of the activity you will have 4 different food traditions.

36 Step 1: **Form a group that is no bigger than four people**** Step 2: Choose a food tradition that you enjoy. E.g. on Good Friday you can’t eat fish. Step 3: Research the history of that food tradition and explain how it started. Step 4: Jigsaw time. Your group will split up and you will have to tell your classmates about your food tradition **NOTE: You will be responsible for this information. A good test question might be something like, choose a food tradition and explain its origins.

37  Discovery of fire  The Agricultural Revolution  Green Revolution  Advances in tools used in agriculture

38  How do you think the discovery of fire has helped society?  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J42 YddJ0Rrw  Read the article titled Discovery of Fire and list 5 ways that the discovery of fire has helped humans

39  Shift from hunting and gathering to agriculture and settlement (shift from a Paleolithic/Palaeolithic diet to an agriculturally created diet)  Consisted of › Developing the ability to farm crops › Domesticating animals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTgIDO1hLQ4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTgIDO1hLQ4 (2 min, 10 seconds) What types of things do you think sparked the agricultural revolution?

40  http://education- portal.com/academy/lesson/what-is-the- green-revolution-definition-benefits-and- issues.html#lesson (3 min, 55 seconds) http://education- portal.com/academy/lesson/what-is-the- green-revolution-definition-benefits-and- issues.html#lesson  Consisted of: › the development of high-yielding varieties of cereal grains › expansion of irrigation infrastructure › distribution of hybridized seeds › synthetic fertilizers › pesticides to farmers.

41  The use of chemical fertilizers and synthetic herbicides and pesticides dramatically influenced the environment by increasing pollution and erosion.  The pollution of the water exposed people and the environment downstream to the chemicals being used in the farm fields.  The large amount of water required by the irrigation systems put pressure on the natural water reserves and resulted in water shortages and droughts.  The Green Revolution increased the amount of energy and fossil fuel used in agriculture.
