Diversity Event

Diversity Event

For my diversity event I was able to listen to Iowa’s Governor of Agriculture Chuck Grassley talk about the struggles in third world countries.  It was interesting hearing how he is helping in struggling countries.  Also discussed was the fact that Americas portion sizes are clearly too large.  I remember from high school that a great amount of food was thrown away.  Being that I have a past with world hunger it was hard for me to see this so I personally would not take more food than I could eat and I would eat everything on my plate every meal. One of Chuck Grassley’s proposals was to limit portion size in America and use the extra food to feed starving people in third world countries.
