There's a bit of humor in seeing science used to defeat an unfair claim based on a scientific tenet. ... When it comes to the massive damage being wrought by corporation-produced toxins on the health of humanity and the earth, the mere fact of association should be more than adequate to remove these products from the market.
There's a lesson to be learned from Monsanto's threat to sue the people of Vermont over GM labeling, but it isn't that the governor isn't brave or is selling out. It's that our right to information was stolen, and the US government supports that theft.
The rights to choose our own food, buy food from sources we choose, and manage our health as we see fit: All of these are on the verge of disappearing. Nations, including the US, are kneeling to the powers that created them, not to their own people.
I must admit that the temptation to produce a blank page with only the above title was almost uncontrollable. But I've managed—though the simple fact is that there is no science behind it.
A protestor introduced a resolution at the Monsanto shareholders meeting that 'addresses serious risks associated with Monsanto’s GMO crops, toxic chemicals applied to these crops, and related civil liability.' (video)
Agribusiness doesn't care about your health, food quality or choice. They care only about profits. To this end, they're buying and stealing every aspect of our food supply, from the land to the seeds to the genes themselves.
Monsanto and BASF have no reason to care whether the people of Europe want their GM garbage. They're on the verge of total victory. Their poisons will be sold everywhere with impunity. Here's how.
Whole Foods Market, Stonyfield Farms, and Organic Valley are selling out organics to genetically modified products - and want us to help them do it.
Synthetic genetic engineering - synthetic biology or SynBio - is the creation of synthetic life. It's the act of treating life as if it were simply a form of mechanical object.
Jerry Rosman believed in the GMO hype. He made a point of buying the latest and greatest products coming down the GMO pipeline. That is, he did until he lost his business to it. (video)
Genetically engineered bacteria can convert seaweed sugar into ethanol.That has the biofuel industry salivating. But no one is considering the risks involved in grafting genetic material from one known-pathogenic bacterium into another that easily mutates into a deadly pathogen.
Lab-grown meat is already being portrayed as a "real animal flesh product". I suppose it is, in the same sense that one can purchase a genuine copy of a fake Dior, as was versified by satirical songwrite Allan Sherman. Scientists are on the verge of mass-producing genuine fake meat. Yummm!
There is no legitimate reason to allow even the testing of the Fortuna GM potatoes. There is no need for them. Therefore, there is no legitimate reason to accept the risks inherent in genetically engineered potatoes. The only one who stands to benefit is BASF.
Chronic illness in our children keeps mounting—while the authorities wear blinders, clap their hands over their ears, and chant, "It's safe it's safe it's safe it's safe..." as if saying it often enough, loudly enough, and with the right inflection of condescension makes it so.
The GMO Emperor Monsanto has no clothes. Sold as a miracle, the solution to hunger and pests, genetically engineered crops have proven to be the opposite. They have brought us diseases, crop die offs, super weeds, and more. The promises were—and still are—a pack of lies
