Time Pioneer
Hi, my name is Will Allen; I am an urban farmer and the founder and CEO of Growing Power Inc. I believe that everyone regardless of their economic means should have access to the same healthy, safe, affordable food that is grown naturally. I am the founder and CEO of Growing Power Inc., a non-profit organization, and I love it. People come from all around the world to see my two-acre Community Food Center. The goal of my company is to grow food, grow minds, and grow the community. I have been recognized as among the preeminent thinkers of our time on agriculture and food policy. In 2008 I was named a John D. and Katherine T. McArthur Foundation Fellow and was awarded a prestigious foundation “genius grant” for my work. In May 2010, Time magazine named me to the Time 100 World’s Most Influential People.
Career Day
UACCB’s Career Day was very inspirational and informational in my career outlook. At career day I learned many details about careers in physical therapy and law enforcement.
During the first session that I went to, I learned that there are different types of physical therapists. There are some therapists that mainly focus on the areas above the arms and there are others that focus on areas below the arms. I also learned that the average range of pay at White River Medical Center, for physical therapists, is between 40 and 80 thousand a year.
The next session that I attended was law enforcement centered. This session mainly focused on a career of a State Police Officer. To become a State Police Officer you have to endure seventeen weeks of training, at a boot camp, and be at least twenty-two.
Now that I know a few of the components of physical therapy and law enforcement, I can conclude that I don’t see myself being a physical therapist or a State Police Officer any time soon.

Environment
How/Why do you think people should show respect to the environment?
People need to respect the environment a lot more! There are many ways that we can respect the environment more but it will take a lot of work and commitment to protect it.
One way that everyone can protect the environment is to throw away our trash and recycle. If we don’t throw our trash out the window and wait until we have access to a trash can we can make the world a more beautiful place to be in. If we recycle we can save our resources.
Another way to protect our environment is to car pull. If we ride together we can save gas and not pollute the air as much. If we car pull, we can also save money by not wasting gas.
People need stay alert and be aware that if we don’t protect our environment we will not leave a healthy environment for out future relatives.

Antonia as Mother Earth
Comparing Antonia to Mother Earth can be very Interesting. Antonia can be very motherly. When she was living with her family as a child, she took care of all of her family. When she got a little older and had kids, she did become a true mother and mothered them. Mother Earth is very motherly, as in her name. Mother Earth symbolizes fertility. Antonia is obviously fertile because she had lots of children. Antonia has to be full of emotions because of all of the things she has been through. Mother Earth also symbolizes emotional nourishment. I think that it is obvious that Antonia can be compared to Mother Earth.
