There is one single fact that matters...the data for the effects of a single GM food released into the wild over the long term DOES NOT EXIST. Let alone the data for the potentially compounding effects of multiple GM food releases. Releasing transgenic material into the wild is yet another example of extreme hubris. What's more these greedy psychopaths take the choices of others away forever. Whatever problems humanity faces, let's not pretend that the solutions that corporations present to us are the best....they are the ones that can be best exploited for profit or power in the shortest time possible.
We know transgenic material has been released into the wild without proper testing.
We know it turns up thousands of miles from release sites.
We know that more pesticides gets sprayed on our food.
We know that 'pest' species have become resistant to pesticides.
We know biotech companies have developed seed terminator technologies.
We know that biotech companies want to own the global seed supply.
Isn't that enough to know that these mentalists know nothing but greed, don't care about consequences and are totally out of control?
One only has to look at what has been happening to the Indian farmers to truly understand this thing. I agree completely with what you said. Greed knows no end. And the brainwashing is complete, many people cannot see the truth, even when they are given it. Anyone wanting to learn more, should start reading the work of the physicist, Vandana Shiva.
What is happening to those poor Indian farmers is monstrous, absolutely monstrous. I believe Bayer has recently bought Monsanto...no doubt in an effort to avoid litigation and give their toxic product a fresh veneer.
really? I hadn't heard that news. I'm mostly avoiding news these days. The Indian farmers are really bad off. I couldn't believe it when I discovered what was going on there. Shame!
