Hey Readers!
In this blog post I include stuff I learned in social science, I hope you enjoy reading it.
Causes and Effects of Agriculture
In this piece I am going to be explaining the neolithic revolution and how agriculture has become so important for humans. There are disadvantages and advantages to agriculture which I will also discuss.
One reason for large scale agriculture during the neolithic revolution 9000 years ago was population increase, this has meant more people need food, for example there are now about 8 billion people in the world, compared to 1.6 million in 1900. Another reason for the revolution is the growth of the cities. As well as that agriculture everyone gets food which helps build society.
One advantage of agriculture is food supply this is good because people need food, therefore this will mean more people are fed . One disadvantage of agriculture is ‘it’s hard’ this is bad because not many people will want to work therefore, this will mean no food. Another disadvantage of agriculture is deforestation, (chopping down trees) there are multiple reasons to this; destroys habitat which makes animals extinct, adds CO2 (carbon dioxide) to the air, causes global warming, increases sea level and creates flooding.
Now we are learning about Sumerian gods. Anu is one of many gods and goddesses the Sumerians believed in.
Here is the poster I made about him:
We also had to make another profile/poster about a Sumerian god that rules a city. There were multiple options and I chose to do mine about Larak; the god for Larak is Sabilsag.
Here is the profile about Sabilsag:
