Dr. Valoy With The Consequences Of The Industrial Food Chain.

    Based on chapter 3, some unintended consequences from the industrial food chain is global warming. "The Omnivores Dilemma" states, "Some of it evaporates into the air, where it creates acid rain". This shows how some farmers may not expect that the man-made nitrogen that the corn does not take up can cause global warming. " The Omnivores Dilemma" also states,"Some of it turns into nitrous oxide, a gas that increases global warming". This demonstrates how some of the man-made nitrogen that's not used will turn into a gas that increases global warming. Therefore, an unintended consequence of the industrial food chain is global warming because a lot of corn is grown in one field and the man-made nitrogen that's not used in the corn will turn into a gas that increases global warming.

This is a corn field and some of the corn may not uses all the man-made nitrogen, which will turn into gas that can increase global warming.
