Monsanto and the Mortal Danger to Traditional Agriculture
August 21st, 2011Via: Axis of Logic:
The greatest threat to the future of food production in the world is the introduction of genetically engineered foods from the bio-tech industry. Contrary to their mendacious propagandized promises of solving the problem of world hunger through the so-called second green revolution, the bio-tech companies are instead in the process of destroying the world’s ecosystems, and thus the natural food chains and life cycles. Their goal is certainly not to solve any problem at all, but instead to fill the corporate coffers with the profits from selling their dangerous products to countries with already high mortality rates from malnutrition and starvation.

More on topic is the article’s discussion of Professor Huber’s concerns about the approval of GM alfalfa – the first perennial plant to be approved. He wrote a letter to Tom Vilsack urging them to deny approval, which was infamously leaked.
