Assignment Task: For your Initial post: I would like you to write about your opinions on organic food.

In your initial discussion post, write a paragraph outlining your views on organic food. Here are some suggestions on things to focus on. You might want to take a couple of these questions or come up with your own. Just make sure you don't merely say "yes or no" but really explain your viewpoint. It's also 100% permissible to say "Maybe, it depends" and explain your hesitations. This discussion is meant to be very open ended, so pick a question that seems the most interesting to you:

1. Do you personally buy organic food? Why or why not?

2. Do you think organic food is healthier for you? In what way?

3. Do you think the organic food is better for the environment? In what way?

4. Can organic agriculture scale up to feeding the entire world?

5. Do you think the USDA organic labeling program is too strict? Not strict enough?

6. Do you think organic foods should be subsidized? Why or why not?
