are doing our part to try and spread the word about GMOs,(genetically modified organisms)but we're not the only an"Mmm <br /> ones Multiple public figures,scientists and researchers have been speaking out about GMOs for a number of years. <br /> For example,not long ago a former Canadian Government Scientist at Agriculture Canada,Dr.Thierry Vram(one of Fa ebook so a c a <br /> many)spoke out against GMOs.Another prominent public figure,Geneticist David Suzuki has been a longtime <br /> advocate against GMOs,and has been speaking out about how they can be hazardous to human health as well as the <br /> environment Below,I've provided a video example of Suzuki explaining why he feels the way he does about GMOs Find us on Facebook <br /> Public figures with a wide audience can have a great impact on the consciousness of the masses,they are great'tools' <br /> ®Universe Explorers <br /> for waking more people up to the reality that GMOs can be harmful to human health as well as the environment.It's I <br /> time to pay attention,do your own research and to question what you've been told We can no longer trust branches of Like <br /> the government that deal with food and health,we must not take their word for it,it's better if you actually look into it 571,634 people hke universe E.00rars ` <br /> yourself rather than blindly believing what your are told ( l <br /> It doesn't seem to be much of a debate ' <br /> anymore,its clear that GMOs can indeed be harmful to human health There is <br /> Y I Iwo <br /> I�Iret <br /> a reason why a majority of countries around the world have permanently banned GMOs,so what's taking North <br /> America so long?One reason might be the fact that biotech corporations like Monsanto seem to be above the I �� G►"�® <br /> government and influence policy,but thankfully these things are changing Big Island,Hawaii has recently banned all <br /> GMO products and bio-tech company products Various bills calling for moratoria on GE food include Vermont,North a=Ebook o=aiP o„ i <br /> Dakota,Boulder,Colorado,San Francisco and more --- -- --—— — — <br /> This large movement against GMOs is not based on belief,multiple researchers and scientists all around the world <br /> have shown that GMOs can be harmful Here is a study that shows how Bt toxins found in Monsanto crops can be <br /> damaging to red blood cells,and potentially cause leukemia Here is another one that shows how GMO animal feed <br /> caused severe stomach inflammation and enlarged uteri in pigs There have been multiple studies linking GMOs to <br /> cancer,and a range of other diseases Scientists all over the world have come together to show their support for the <br /> ban of GMOs. <br /> Along with GMOs come the pesticides,which have been linked to cancer,parkinson's,autism and alzhemner's,to name <br /> a few <br /> As you can see,alternative media outlets are not the only ones doing their research Most who investigate this topic, <br /> and do the research for themselves will come to the same conclusions This is what David Suzuki and many others have <br /> done as well <br /> By slipping it into our food without out knowledge,without any indication that there are genetically modified organisms in an <br /> food we are now unwittingly part of a massive experiment <br /> The FDA has said that genetically modified organisms are not much different from regular food,so they'll be treated in the some <br /> way The problem is this,geneticists follow the inheritance of genes,what biotechnology allows us to do is to take this organism, <br /> and move it horizontally into a totally unrelated species Now David Suzuki doesn't normally mate with a carrot and exchange <br /> genes,what biotechnology allows us to do is to switch genes from one to the other without regard to the biological constraints <br /> It's vet y very bad science,we assume that the principals governing the inheritance ofgenes vertically,applies when you move <br /> genes laterally or horizontally Thee's absolutely no reason to make that conclusion <br /> Below is an article written by David Suzuki and Faisal Moola At the beginning concerns with the 210 release of the <br /> super-genetically modified corn called'SmartStax,'are mentioned which has now shown to be harmful to human <br /> hearm and banned all over the world This article was written In 2009,but still has some good information <br /> By David Suzuki with Faisal Moola <br /> In gearing up for the 2010 release of its super-genetically modified corn called'SmartStax',agricultural-biotechnology <br /> giant Monsanto is using an advertising slogan that asks,'Wouldn't it be better'But can we do better than nature, <br /> which has taken millennia to develop the plants we use for food?We don't really know And that in itself is a problem. <br /> The corn,developed by Monsanto with Dow AgroSciences,"stacks"eight genetically engineered traits,six that allow it <br /> to ward off insects and two to make it resistant to weed-killing chemicals,many of which are also trademarked by <br /> Monsanto It's the first time a genetically engineered(GE)product has been marketed with more than three <br /> traits Canada approved the corn without assessing it for human health or environmental risk,claiming that the eight <br /> traits have already been cleared in other crop seeds—even though international food-safety guidelines that Canada <br /> helped develop state that stacked traits should be subject to a full safety assessment as they can lead to unintended <br /> consequences One problem is that we don't know the unintended consequences of genetically engineered or <br /> genetically modified(GM)foods.Scientists may share consensus about issues like human-caused global warming,but <br /> they don't have the same level of certainty about the effects of genetically modified organisms on environmental and <br /> human health!A review of the science conducted under the International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, <br /> Science and Technology for Development in 2008 concluded that"there are a limited number of properly designed <br /> and independently peer-reviewed studies on human health"and that this and other observations"create concern <br /> about the adequacy of testing methodologies for commercial GM plants." <br /> http://earthweareone.com/geneticist-david-suzuki-s4 93-humans-are-part-of-a-massive-expe... 3/31/2015 <br />
