What Problem Is Being Addressed?
The problem that is being addressed is how can we grow our own food at home, and the shortage of plants and vegetables that is happening globally due to global warming.The temperature getting hotter is affecting the way we grow our plants.According to article it states "In the U.S., recent snow and ice storms that snared traffic for hours along the East Coast also hampered food deliveries bound for grocery stores and distribution hubs. Those delays rippled across the country, delaying shipment on fruit and vegetables with a limited shelf life while growers with perishable produce are forced to pay inflated shipping rates to attract limited trucking supplies"This infortmation shows that in the world there are many issues that we cannot predict and that it is getting worse.
