Mary asks…
Can anyone give me reasons why people are careless about the environmental issues of today?
People have to be completely stupid if they pay no attention to the global climate change that is occurring. I live in Fort Howard, Maryland, and yesterday it was about 90 degrees. I’m very concerned about this because its only April and we’re experiencing summer weather.
This catastrophe is leading to melting ice caps, rising ocean levels, abnormal natural behavior of wild life ect. The sad part about this is, its only the beginning. This will eventually lead to mass extinction, war(because of the displaced people that live on coasts), and eventually the demise of the human race.
Anyone who says this isn’t real must literally be retarded. I hear of all these conservatives on television speaking of “a period of warmth.” The only reasons they say that is because conservatives are content with how their doing. They own businesses (such a power and energy company’s), so why would they want to change that? I’m tired of this egocentric attitude in the world. We need a change.
The Expert answers:
I completely agree with you. I mean we hear that this strange weather patterns are just part of the cycle….what cycle???? And the people who dont care about this and think global warming isnt real are simply stupid and lazy. I really dont see why people are saying this because when you really think about it, war, mass extinction, and things like this are really forever and cannot be reversable so why cant people just take precautions before something happens which we might regret.

Given the many economic, social, and environmental issues facing the global society today, what role do you feel agricultural education can play in the area of adult education?
The Expert answers:
At the college level?
College agriculture involves training people to teach, conduct research, or provide information to advance the field of agriculture and food science in other ways. General education agriculture informs the public about food and agriculture.
About 21,000 degrees are awarded in Agriculture each year in American colleges and universitie, about 6,000 students receive masters or doctorates degrees (1988).
Land Grant universities award more than three-quarters of all agricultural degrees (1988.) These state schools receive federal aid under legislation that followed the Morrill Act of 1862, which granted public lands to sup0port agricultural or mechanical education.
Land Grant universities have three major functions: Teaching, Research and Extension service
