 Hey again. This is a companion piece to my previous entry. This is a rhetorical analysis of the movie Food, Inc. While it's very similar to the previous film I covered, that shouldn't be a reason to not talk about it. Besides, comparing covered information can help form a more complete view on an issue. Food Inc is much more varied, covering more of the food process as a whole over Fresh which focuses on farmers and their stocks. The film opens on a narrator describing the current state of food sale in America while a camera flies through a super market, focusing on various items as the narrator focuses what he says on related topics. The narrator is engaging in rhetorical analysis, to some degree, or the image presented by food manufacturers. They're trying to sell the customer the idea that their food was raised ideally, when often the portrayal doesn't even realistically represent basic practices.  The movie then shifts to talk about how pervasive fast food is. This

Hello there. Today I'd like to analyze the contents of two films that tackle the topic of food and farming: This first one is about the film Fresh, and the second will be about the movie Food, Inc. Fresh is a documentary about the current factory farming environment that presently produces the food Americans eat, export, and circulate. It's message is seemingly that factory farming is harming our environment and that we should stop it and replace it with more ecologically friendly methods. I'll admit my bias in that I agree with the films messages so that the reader can take that into account as my analysis is processed. The film opens on a couple, seemingly farmers, talking about how well they've been doing lately and showing some farm hands handling large amounts of baby chickens. It then goes into a description of how pesticides are used in this industry. But then they a bring in a Dr, John Ikerd who starts talking about how the industrial processes that go into fact

Hey again. I want to talk about being divided. In this day and age, we have the solutions to several of our problems at our fingertips. Climate change research has shown technologies to reverse CO2 emissions, Thorium salt reactor and bioreactors can open up green power for much better results than standard methods, and sustainable farming practices could revitalize the food industry. But no progress has been made. This is because of the division sown into our society. Not all of the good ideas are getting to the people who need to hear them. Current ideas about modern CO2 reabsorption boil down to planting a lot more trees. Even ignoring the surface level issue that algae are more potent at turning CO2 to breathable atmosphere than trees, there are more active approaches that aren't being given equal time. Advanced rock weathering is a simple technology where crushed limestone put into dirt can massively reduce CO2 in the air, trapping it at an accelerated rate. And there are ways

 https://youtu.be/uR9M0eOcZhw Hello there. Today I'm analyzing an Allstate insurance ad. Looking at what people do to advertise is essential to knowing how they think. This is essential in all things business.  The ad starts in a dark forest with a person telling the viewer that they're a wild deer. He then goes on to detail about how he's doping deer like actions. The narration then goes on to say that one of those actions is inspecting a road. Then a car comes along and the person who's a deer stays on the road, saying it's a thing deer do. The car then hits into him and there's a close up on his face on the ground. He then says that normally the viewer would be on the hook for the damage to the car. They then cut to a advertising card and say that it's good that their insurance covers that kind of accident. The authors of the add are wanting to appeal to a shocking pathos. They want the viewer to be surprised at the depiction of a crashing person and they
