The future of food: why gm crops threaten the sustainability of thehuman race (opinion)


 
Business,Business News,Business Opportunities
(NaturalNews) Corporations like Monsanto are playing God with thefood supply. Did you ever wonder what happens when all thegenetically modified, pesticide-compatible, gene-terminated,laboratory-concocted Frankenfoods end up genetically contaminatingthe natural crops we depend on for a sustainable food future? In anew CounterThink cartoon published today , I explore this important concept by showing the plight of afarmer fretting over an empty bag of seedless watermelon seeds . You may find this surprising to learn, but U.S. corporations have actually designed, patented and aggressively promoted "geneterminator" plant technology that causes second-generation plants to self-destruct. By doingthis, the corporation can control intellectual property (seed patents) and demandroyalties on seeds from poor farmers in third world countries.

It eliminates the whole practice of"saving seeds" and propagating food from one plant generation to the next -- a practice that humankind has depended on forsurvival since the beginning of human history. In doing so, this gene terminator technology is a crime against both nature and humanity . To deny farmers the ability to propagate seeds from onegeneration to the next is to enslave humanity in a system ofcorporate control that violates the laws of nature and God . Care to take a guess which U.S.

corporation is engaged in thisactivity? If you guessed Monsanto, you're right. Click here to read news about Monsanto's terminator gene at theOrganic Consumers Association . You can also follow the news on this topic at BanTerminator.org . If you buy seedless watermelons, or seedless grapes , or GM soy products, you're already supporting the corporationsthat are altering the food supply.

Seedless grapes are not natural , and they remove the very part of the grape that contains powerfulcardiovascular medicine . Have you ever heard of the nutritional supplement called grapeseed extract? Guess where it comes from? ... Grape seeds, ofcourse. It's some of the best cardiovascular medicine known tomodern science, far more potent than any prescription drug , yet with zero negative side effects.

Yet food companies have removed it from the food supply and promoted "seedless grapes" as a benefit to consumers ! (Of course, grape skins also contain powerful medicine calledresveratrol, but grape seeds contain different medicines called proanthocyanidins and PCOs,which you can read about at the Physician's Desk Reference ). What's at risk : the future of human life on planet Earth In this cartoon, the farmer character is fretting over something the entire human race isgoing to suddenly realize one day: Playing God with seeds and the food supply for the purpose ofextracting maximum corporate profits is to plae the very future of humankind at extreme risk . Suppose the terminator gene crops somehow cross-pollinate staple food crops that now feed theworld... what happens then? Imagine all the wheat grown in the United States suddenly self-destructing after a single growing season. Massstarvation would quickly ensue, followed by economic collapse,military action and quite possibly the collapse of the nationitself.

And the same is true in Europe, Australia, Asia and SouthAmerica, too. This is what's at stake with terminator gene technology. For thesake of maximizing corporate profits, the Monsanto corporation is willing to place the very future of humankind atrisk. But it's no surprise to learn Monsanto is behind this crimeagainst nature -- this is the same corporation that tried to patentthe pig, claiming it owned the genetic code of hogs.

This is alsothe same corporation that promoted aspartame to the world by purchasing a company called Searle, whose CEO wasa man named Donald Rumsfeld. He strong-armed the FDA to getaspartame approved as "safe," and we've seen alarming increases inbrain tumors and neurodegenerative diseases ever since. I believe there is no natural law that evil corporations led bygreedy men will not violate in order to increase their own power or profits. Corporations have proven they will poison the environment , kill members of the public, bribe politicians, violate federallaw, engage in competitive espionage, threaten critics, bribe themedia, endanger lives, wipe out animal species and sacrifice thevery future of life on planet Earth in order to squeeze out onemore quarter of filthy profits.

And they will do it with a straightface, while actually claiming they are "green." There will be a day when the people will rise up against thecorruption and overreaching power of the corporations. In time,they will reclaim their natural right to seeds, a cleanenvironment, and natural health remedies. Today's patent laws -- which give ownership overvirtually all commonsense ideas to corporations -- will crumble,and governments that colluded with corporations to strip power,health and dollars from the people will pay the price. Until that day, of course, it's business as usual in the free market : Screw the people, violate the planet, desecrate nature and keepthat share price propped up as high as possible.

That's business as usual in the United States, a nation that has sold its soul tothe highest bidder on eBay and now stands as an alarming historicalexample of what happens when a free market economic abandons basicethics and human rights. Must-see documentary: The Corporation . Watch this if you really want to know the truth about howcorporations threaten the very future of humankind. What can you do about all this? Grow heirloom plants , buy organic , non-GM foods and refuse to do business with corporations that use GM foods . Inform yourself with these online resources: Seed Savers Exchange The International Seed Saving Institute Save Our Seeds See the movie The Future of Food or buy the DVD.
