Case Analysis
Supposed a business man will invest in constructing a big fast food
chain here in Looc, what could be the possible effect in it into our waste
management?
BIODIVERSITY
Conversion of natural ecosystems for crop production, pasture,
poultry farm or piggery will be a principal cause of habitat loss, in turn
reducing biodiversity. Fast food production depends heavily on the use of
inputs such as fertilizer, pesticides, energy, land and water, and on
unsustainable practices such as monocropping and heavy tilling. This has
reduced the variety of landscapes and habitats, threatening or destroying
the breeding, feeding and/or nesting of birds, mammals, insects and
microbial organisms, and crowding out many native plant species.
POLLUTION
A considerable amount of greenhouse gas emissions is produced by
growing, breeding and raising livestock, farming, processing, storing,
packaging, transporting, preparing and disposing of the food we eat.
Approximately 37% of all man-made greenhouse gas emissions are
produced by the food industry. These emissions include carbon dioxide
(CO2), methane (CH4) and ammonia (NH3) which are naturally released
by animals such as cows, pigs and chicken (Dopelt, Radon and
Davidovitch, 2019). Furthermore, production of animal products also
produces a lot of water wastage and water pollution. Water pollution is
caused by runoff water from these farms into water bodies that contains
manure, antibiotics, hormones, fertilizers and pesticides (McGrath, 2019).

BIODIVERSITY
One of the main causes of habitat loss and subsequent biodiversity loss will be the
conversion of natural ecosystems for the production of crops, grazing, chicken farms, or pig
farms. Production of fast food is primarily reliant on unsustainable techniques like
monocropping and intensive tilling as well as inputs like fertilizer, pesticides, energy, land,
and water. As a result, there are fewer different types of landscapes and ecosystems, which
threatens or eliminates the opportunities for birds, mammals, insects, and microbiological
organisms to reproduce, feed, and/or nest, as well as driving out many native plant species.
POLLUTION
Growing, breeding, and raising livestock, farming, processing, storing, packaging,
transporting, cooking, and discarding the food we eat all contribute significantly to
greenhouse gas emissions. The food business is responsible for around 37% of all emissions
of greenhouse gases caused by humans. These emissions come from naturally occurring
sources including cows, pigs, and chickens and comprise carbon dioxide (CO2), methane
(CH4), and ammonia (NH3) (Dopelt, Radon and Davidovitch, 2019). Additionally, the
production of animal products results in significant water contamination and waste. Runoff
water from these farms into water bodies, which contains manure, antibiotics, hormones,
fertilizers, and pesticides, causes water contamination (McGrath, 2019).

What could be its effect on:
QUALITY OF WATER IN THE MUNICIPALITY
Fast food chains will have a direct impact on water quality. Water quality has drastically declined
as a result of all the diseases, hormones, medicines, and fertilizers used in the production of fast food that
are leaking into our water systems. Outbreaks of waterborne diseases such as E. Coli, dead zones for
marine life, and a number of other hazards can all be attributed to fast food.

HEALTH AND SANITATION
Food handling and preparation are a crucial part of fast food hygiene in terms of cleanliness.
Cross-contamination can happen if food isn't handled properly since hazardous bacteria can migrate from
surfaces to foods.
Consumers of fast food are likewise impacted in terms of health. Salt, sugar, trans fats, saturated
fats, calories, and processed preservatives and components are frequently found in high concentrations in
fast food. Numerous credible studies have established the harmful health effects of consuming excessive
amounts of certain food ingredients.
Fast food has short-term effects on blood sugar and blood pressure, causes inflammation, and
may prevent someone from getting enough essential nutrients. Long-term problems with digestion,
immunity, inflammation, heart health, obesity, and other things could result from a diet rich in fast food.
