The Effects of Paddy Field Conversion for Rural Community


Talking about rural community, we will deal with the rural area. In a rural area we usually can find some wide land such as paddy field. However, in this day the presence of that kind of land in rural area is declining. The cause of that problem is paddy field conversion to be residential or industry areas which is considered giving some bad effects to rural community such as the loss of the job and the lack of food stability.
The first negative effect of paddy field conversion for rural community is the loss of the job. As we know, mostly rural community only has good ability in agricultural field. They do not capable enough on the other field of jobs. Thus, when the existence of paddy field becomes narrower the rural community will face a big problem namely, losing their main job.
The second negative effect of field conversion for rural community is the lack of food stability. Since the staple food of Indonesian people is rice so when the paddy field is getting narrower, not only the rural community in Indonesia will face that problem but also all the communities in Indonesia will face the same problem.
                Therefore, the conversion of paddy field program should be banned. Since that program will be able to cause some effects for the rural community itself and the other communities such as the loss of the job and the lack of food stability.

The Consumption of Burger



Thesis
          Do you know burger? Have you ever tasted it? Burger is a food made by combining some fillings which usually consist of some beefs and some slices of cheese with two buns of bread. It is a kind of fast food which will be found easily around the world. The delicious taste and inexpensive cost of a burger makes it becomes a desirable food for almost of people. However, in talking about burger we should also take into account about the negative sides in human beings’ health, because burger is making the number of obese people higher, disturbing the brain function of human beings and causing early aging.

Arguments
           The first negative effect is making the number of obese people in the world higher. As we know, obesity is a condition when someone has excess body weight by 20 percent over the standard. Some researchers from WHO have proven that there is a correlation between the increasing of BMI (Body Mass Index) or obesity and the consumption of burger. Since, they have found that the number of obese people in some countries which have the highest rating of consuming burgers such as European countries is increasing. Moreover,   inside a burger will be able to find more saturated fat rather than unsaturated fat. The higher number of saturated fat in burger causes the accumulation of fat in our body especially in belly area.
           The second negative effect is disturbing the brain function of human beings. The main cause of the damage of the brain is the essence MSG (Mono Sodium Glutamate) inside a burger.  In producing burgers, the producers will do anything to make their burgers sold out well. One of the efforts of them is making the taste of their burger delicious by choosing a shortcut to add that harmful essence exceeds the normal limits. Furthermore, many researchers in the world argue that by adding MSG in any foods includes burger will be able to make human beings’ brain work declines. Besides MSG, trans fat inside a burger is also believed to be the cause of brain damage.
           The third negative effect is causing early aging. Some materials in a burger such as glucose, flour, and trans fat are able to make our insulin increases sharply. Moreover, those kinds of materials are believed to be the cause of skin inflammation as well. Hence, antioxidants in our body will be non-activated easily.  In addition to those kinds of material, meat the main material of burgers’ filling is also noticed as the cause of inactivity of antioxidant in our body. Since some research findings say that excessive consumption of meat will produce AAH compound which is able to damage the DNA in cells of the human body.   As a result our skin will be susceptible of sun exposure which is characterized by the occurrence of wrinkles in our complexion.  

Reiteration
          In summary, burger consumption has several negative effects for human beings’ health. They are the making the number of obese people higher, disturbing the brain function of human beings and causing early aging.


I hope it is useful for you!
