Genetically modified food: Myths and Truths
http://www.naturalcuresnotmedicine.com/2013/02/genetically-modified-organism-gmo-myths.html
I and many of my friends are wondering how in the world can we keep accepting the fact that Monsanto is filling our government? Our leaders and our courts seem to insist on protecting this and other such corporations. What are the effective ways to get our voices heard, and have these huge corporations stopped from killing us and our planet?.

Dear Ms. Brown:
Thank you for contacting me to express your views regarding the labeling of genetically engineered or modified foods. I appreciate hearing from you on this issue.
During the 112th Congress, Representative Dennis Kucinich of Ohio introduced H.R. 3553, the Genetically Engineered Food Right to Know Act. This legislation would have required food producers and companies to label any food containing genetically engineered products with statements meeting specified requirements.
Like you, I have concerns about our food supply and want to ensure it remains safe and healthy. However, we have to understand that without genetic engineering, our nation would likely not be able to feed itself or have important lifesaving products that so many Americans depend on. It is estimated that the United States accounts for nearly two-thirds of all biotechnology crops planted globally. Additionally, products such as insulin or Hepatitis B vaccines would not exist without genetic engineering.
Currently, similar legislation has yet to be re-introduced in the current 113th Congress.
Should Congress take up this issue, I will be sure to keep your views in mind.
Again, thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. I appreciate having the benefit of your views.
Sincerely,
Steve Pearce

DeleteOUR Nation is quite capable of Producing More than enough food to feed every person on this Globe with Heirloom Seeds. GMO needs to be banned from North America. There Is enough Scientific Prove from Other Countries confirming the effects and dangers of Glyphosate. So many countries have already BANNED Monsanto.Its Shameful how Monsanto snuck right In there with Minimal Testing.90 days does not give an accurate true evaluation. Its Ironic how they ban atheletes from there Sport, when they have been caught using enhancing drugs, Yet The FDA knowingly is allowing Monsanto to sell these Harmful products in Stores without evenInforming the consuers as to the dangers of GMO foods and Pesticides. Are you concerned about the Bees? Monsanto has bought beelogistics. Monsanto knows full well,all bees will die from the pestisides. Then Monsanto has full control of his GMO Bees. The World will be reliant on Monsantos Bees. Can the government not see trough that? Or is the almighty dollar making them turn a blind eye.
BAN GMO, BAN Roundup
If your genuinely concerned with the safety & Healthy food source, you would be banning GMO. & Roundup

(This was her letter to me Dec 2012) Thank you for contacting me with your concerns regarding genetically modified (GM) food. I understand your concerns about the need for a robust, secure supply of a range of foods, including organics.
Agriculture is Michigan's second largest industry, employing one out of four people in our state, and that is due in large part to the strength of family farms. Our farms have the most crop diversity in the country, beside California, and provide healthy, affordable food to our communities. As the Chairwoman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, I am mindful that we have almost seven billion mouths to feed around the globe and that we need American leadership, innovation, and increased efficiency to feed the world. To foster that innovation, we need a regulatory system that is science-based and efficient. I support increased research on the safety and effectiveness of GM crops, and I will continue to monitor this issue and will make sure that the regulation of GM foods is based on sound science.
Thank you again for contacting me. Please continue to keep me informed about issues of concern to you and your family.

Oh My god.... The Horrors... a Taiko Drum being played with the Toronto Symphony? Heaven help us! We simply MUST put a stop to this nonsense, before something really bad happens... like Snoop Dogg doing covers of Willie Nelson tunes, or Justin Beiber stats belting out Streisand Ballads without a microphone or Auto-tune.
ReplyDeleteThank you David Suzuki for showing us just how bad things can get if we let scientists find solutions to our future problems today.
And get that horseless carriage off the highway before it spooks the livestock!

Both email convey the same 'smoke & mirrors' political speak "sound science" , how does she define that and what research has she supported?(If its the FDA, they are in Monsanto's back pocket so that is not sound science nor unbiased research). Since I've read about the research done here and in France, I want GMO's labeled. I'm not into conspiracy thinking so I also want science and back-up. But I also know how an allergic reaction occurs, since my area of expertise was as an RN working on an Oncology/Med unit and was Oncology certified, through testing from the U of M. So, am also aware of how cancer occurs.
If Monsanto's GMO's are so okay to eat then why did they want protection under the law at the Federal Level and why do they not want their food labeled? Why did they place one of their prior attorneys into the FDA? Why didn't another of their past lawyers, Supreme Court Justice Thomas, not recuse himself from voting on cases brought in from of the Supreme Court that involve Monsanto et al? My questions are never ending and seem to only get 'political' speak, where they never answer the questions put to them. I also laud Sen. Bernie Sanders et al who support labeling of GMO's.
It is the fault of genetic engineering that causes diabetes which REQUIRES the use of INSULIN. Doesn't everyone realize this is a huge scandal to keep everyone on drugs from the big pharma companies? We are killing ourselves and our government, the FDA, and the medical community is drugging us to keep us alive longer and charging us ransom for our lives.
ReplyDelete"without genetic engineering, our nation would likely not be able to feed itself or have important lifesaving products that so many Americans depend on." = LIE
ReplyDeleteFarming is quickly becoming like the chemical industry...that is, chemicals are developed to do a 'job' . They are dumped into the biologic world long before long-term unintended results are discovered. Take dioxins, agent Orange, DDT, any many other examples that did the job intended and then are discovered to cause many other disruptions in the ecology, unforeseen at the start.Remember that we are the species that wiped out the Passenger Pigeon, when they numbered in the BILLIONS just a couple of hundred years ago.We nearly wiped out the Buffalo , California Condor, Wolf populations, we have developed a "Harvester Mentality" based of the idea that this universe is here for us to exploit. A value system of 'success' has been foisted on us based on measures of bushels-per-acre, rather than a qualitative (nutritional) measure.
