John Green Video


                Today in class, we watched a video presented by John Green. The video was entertaining, yet informing. His way of teaching and explaining was very helpful in my opinion. It kept everybody interested and attentive. After we watched the video one time, we went back to watch it again, this time pausing every few minutes or so to discuss what we just heard. We talked about how human's health has changed. Back then, they had a diet free of artificial ingredients, and they were constantly doing physical activity. We also discussed the food making process nowadays. I actually didn't know that they kept the animals locked up and eating special foods to make them bigger and meatier. I also didn't know that there is an acceptable amount of rat hair in fast foods... After hearing that, it definitely made me never want to eat McDonald's again. Also we found out that there's a chocolate bar  possibly containing human flesh..but that's debatable. We also discussed how most successful cities were always on water, except for Indianapolis. I've learned a lot from the video so far and I hope that we can watch things like this more often.
