GMO scientists think they’ve discovered the “God gene” for plant yields… but could accidentally create a food crop WIPEOUT
Plant geneticists are now saying they’ve uncovered the power of genome editing through a new application of CRISPR technology. The scientists from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory say they have mobilized CRISPR-Cas9 tech to rapidly produce variants of the tomato plant engineered to display three key agricultural traits: fruit size, branching structure and plant shape.

Are industrial farming practices and geoengineering destroying the Earth’s soil?
Modern farming practices have been shown to increase the amount of aluminum in the soil available to plants, and reduce overall soil quality. When more aluminum is available to crops, it means the soil is more acidic. In humans, aluminum has been linked to causing neurological problems, such as Alzheimer’s disease. But could it be […]

Recent lawsuit says the chemical cocktail comprising Roundup is more toxic than just glyphosate on its own
Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s leading herbicide, Roundup, has been heavily criticized for its toxic effects on humans and the environment.

SELLOUTS: The EPA’s pesticide approval office is funded by pesticide manufacturers and relies on their submitted data as “science”
The Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Pesticide Programs is supposed to be responsible for producing independent analyses of pesticides. But is that what they really do? Like other federal agencies (à la the FDA), the Office of Pesticides does no actual studies or research of their own; instead, they review data provided to them by pesticide manufacturers. […]
