There Really Is Only One Mother & What You Can Do To Help Preserve Her
Whether you accept the idea that everyone and everything that lives on this planet have only one mother, Mother Earth, may depend on how you were raised. For humans to survive, we must rely on food that is grown, in one form or another, on the Earth. That means, the Earth is our Mother. Simple concept – yes?? I believe it should be. One perspective of science tells us that life on the 3rd rock from the sun began millions of years ago as single celled amoeba and through the process of evolution, eventually evolved into homo sapiens. Whether you believe that concept or you follow the concept of creationism really has no bearing on how our species has evolved/grown through the millennia. Without Mother Earth, nothing would have survived.

The School Lunch and Test Score Connection
Abstract
In the writing of this essay, several studies were reviewed to obtain the groundwork, including studies that clearly showed a direct correlation between food quality and learning. Of all the studies identified through the use of the LIRN and Google Scholar databases, none were found that presented information clearly opposing the topic. As a result of the research, a hypothesis was formed showing improved nutrition in school food programs would create an overall increase in standardized test scores by improving the internal learning environment.
