6 New GMO Crops that May Soon Hit Your Dinner Table

geneticallymodifiedapple 235x147 6 New GMO Crops that May Soon Hit Your Dinner TableRemember when the USDA gave Monsanto’s new GMO crops the fast track to approval? Regardless of the numerous accounts of organ damage, pesticide-resistant weeds, and unintentionally mutated organisms like resistant insects, our own government is manipulating the game to let “biotech bullies” like Monsanto get speedier regulatory reviews. Consequently, the environment, livestock, and consumers will be exposed to even greater danger.

As stated in their press release, the Secretary of Agriculture, Tom Vilsack, envisions transforming the USDA “into a high-performing organization that focuses on its customers.” We’d like to think that we, the consumers, are those customers. The likes of Monsanto, Dow, and Syngenta, however, would probably disagree.

Here’s your chance to tell the USDA otherwise. The first two crops on this list have been on the old, slower-track approval process, which allows 60 days for the public to comment. The remaining four are new additions but are on the fast track, meaning we still only have until September 11thof 2012 to have our say before these seeds hit the soil and, maybe, your dinner table.

6 New GMO Crops to Act Against

  • Dow 2,4-D and Glufosinate Tolerant Soybean - Since the US first began using GM crops, our herbicide usage has been boosted by 300 million pounds, despite claims by biotech behemoths that other plants like weeds would not grow resistant to glyphosate – commonly known as RoundUp. And now, we have “superweeds.” Of course, biotech (and seemingly the USDA) doesn’t care, and they plan on adding the 2,4-D herbicide and dicamba (see number 4) to the list. Take action here.
  • Syngenta Corn Rootworm Resistant Corn - Plenty of nations have banned Syngenta’s GM Bt crops—but not the US. This type of corn produces its own pesticides and kills all bugs, good or bad, which also means livestock can get sick from eating it. Research says that 80% of pregnant women have Bt toxins in their blood. Take action here.
  • Okanagan Non-Browning Apple - Conventional apples are covered in pesticides. That’s why we buy organic, but Okanagan has produced the first GM apple. Take action against genetically modified apples right here.
  • Monsanto Dicamba Tolerant Soybean - Take action here.
  • Dow 2,4-D, Dlyphosate and Glufosinate Tolerant Soybean - Take action here.
  • Genective Glyphosate Tolerant Corn

GM foodsare bad news for the earth and all of us who live on it. Have your voice heard while you can.

If You Were Eating Food that Could Kill You – Want to Know?

Published on Aug 29, 2012 by WishMishTV

If you were eating something completely unnatural – something that
could make you sick – give you cancer – make your testicles shrink -
heck, even kill you – wouldn’t you want to know? If you answered yes -
then you’re on the same side as over 90% of your fellow Americans.
Poll after poll over the last few years – has shown that more than 90%
of Americans support specific labeling of genetically modified foods
that they buy in grocery stores. And European and other developed
countries require labeling of GMOs — genetically modified foods. But
even though for years Americans have been demanding the right to know
what’s in their food – and whether or not it’s franken-food – not a
single piece of state or federal legislation has ever been passed to
make it happen. Which brings us to California. Efforts to force the
state legisature to pass laws to require labeling of genetically
modified foods have failed – so now citizens of the state have taken
matters into their own hands. After collecting more than a million
signatures – the citizens of California put proposition 37 on the
ballot for November – which will force all genetically modified foods
to have special labels. Good news, right? Well…now the fight is just
starting. That’s because the biggest purveyors of genetically modified
foods – giant corporations like Monsanto, DuPont, Coca-Cola, Pepsi,
Nestle – all of them are spending enormous amounts of money to defeat
Prop 37. They don’t want you to know what’s in your food. Monsanto
alone has spent more than 4 million bucks – so too has Dupont – and in
total the GMO industry has raised $25 million to kill prop 37 – and to
kill your right to know what’s in the food you eat. On the other hand
- the supporters of Prop 37 – have only raised $2 million. This is
going to be an uphill battle.

 

 

Jeffrey M. Smith: The GMO Threat 1/4

Uploaded by TheAlexJonesChannelon Nov 10, 2010

Jeffrey M. Smith, author of the #1 GMO bestseller Seeds of Deception, talks about his campaign to force mass rejection of genetically modified foods in order to expunge them form the market entirely. Smith explains how the FDA allowed GMO foods to enter the market with no safety testing whatsoever, and that the man primarily responsible for this is now food safety czar in the Obama administration.

Smith notes how Obama has broken his pre-election promise that every GMO food should be properly labeled, and also installed pro-GMO executives in the USDA and FDA who have close ties to Monsanto and the biotechnology industry.

Smith documents how consumption of genetically modified foods has been directly linked with reproductive problems, immune system deficiencies, accelerated ageing, organ damage and gastrointestinal problems. The immune system problem has been seen consistently in mice and rats who are fed GMO food, explains Smith, and now since humans have started consuming genetically modified foods, auto-immune diseases and allergies have increased.

Smith explains how research exposing the dangers of genetically modified food has been censored and shut down by the establishment, with scientists involved in such studies finding themselves blacklisted and shunned by their peers before being fired from their jobs in many cases as big agriculture throws its weight around.

Smith covers a plethora of vital issues in this one hour interview, and offers workable solutions to phase GMO out of the market, by pushing for proper labeling standards and an intensive education outreach that will help people realize how big a threat genetically modified food poses to their health.
