Monsanto - another silent tsunami

Yesterday I saw a documentary on television produced by ARTe and I admit that it was the most horrific video I saw in the past years!
Do you know about Monsanto? Are you sure? If not I would really recommend you to have a look at the 12 video episodes (+/- 10 minutes each) I have uploaded to Gaia - you're welcome to come back and leave your impressions afterwards.
This is really freaking scary ! And how can we still tolerate all this? This is at least as worse as global warming ... in fact, it really fits it all ... but here we have some guys we could take by the guts ...
This genetic polution (modified crops) are really destroying the rest of good stuff we still have on earth ... and no one is stoping it! India is already infected and crying for help, the corn in Mexico is being destroyed one little corn at a time, the farmers are screaming and nobody is hearing them! I can't believe in so much human ignorance and am starting to conform myself with the fact that we humans are really stupid and that we deserve to suffer and die and leave this planet alone so it can recover from human stupidity ...
The only way we could fight this mafia is by counter attacking them with organic food but the problem is ... is there still organic food available that has not yet been infected with modified genetic plants? Anyway, if ther's still a hope our purchases are the most powerful way to force change in production so more than ever I am convinced about buying organic where I can.
And than there's this milk story going on in the US. I wouldn't dring milk anymore if it was not from my own cow in my garden ...
I am really curious about what your folks have to say to this theme and will surely post this thread somewhere and let you know afterwards ;-) --> I posted this blog on the Realizing Health Pod for discussion if you're interested.
If you want to get more scared: read Dr. Lou's blog here at Gaia...
Here's another interesting blog about prices spiking for farmers.

Diana - feeling for you on so many levels right now.
I marked this to come back to many days ago and am surprised no why else has commented. Why I wonder? We're so nice here at ZNG? Or we're busy? Or were trying to focus on the good and positive? Probably all that and more.
I haven't watched any video, as yet, and plan too. Have been tracking these issues for many, many years and feel pretty appraisd of the happenings. Although the outcry doesn't seem loud enough (and probably isn't) the outcry over our food has been larger than many other things corporations have tampered with… likely because there's not a single soul on the entire planet unaffected by it. Eeergh.
After feeding ourselves for all these thousands of years you'd think we'd tread softly on improvements. Unproven improvements… especially when experience shows we humans just aren't yet as smart as it requires to see all the domino effects of our tampering. Eergh x2!
Blessings for putting it out there. And blessings in general,
David
