Everywhere you turn there is always a fast food chain! Fast food does not only effect the obesity rates in the US, but it also effects the environment because it is not organic. Where the animal farms are that produce food for fast food chains, the water that is being fed to the animals is unhealthy and also the natural resources are not available to the animal farms. One of the main foods in the fast food chain is beef. Because of all the land that is used up to feed the cattle and for the cattle to graze, this leads to soil loss and a waste of water usage. There is also more energy that is used for fertilizers and pesticides. These two major factors of the unhealthyness and the wastage of supplies to feed the cattle that cause obesity is something that effects the entire echo system.
