Jenavee Arteaga
#1 Healthy Eating, Healthy Planet
• The main idea is how we can
help the planet by growing our
own food and eating locally and
in-season.
• The topic is we
created pollution because of our
actions.
• My evidence is "One
such activity is growing food"
• Another piece of evidence is
"These activities helped us but
also created pollution"
#2 Nothing Fresh in Sight
• This talked about not getting an
easy access to fresh fruits and
vegetables.
• The main idea of the text is many
people don't have easy access to
food but are taking steps to
change them
• My evidence is "Yet many people
don't have easy access to a good
grocery store".
