Natasha Longo, Prevent Disease Waking Times The promise by Monsanto and producers of genetically modified crops was that farmers could use less chemicals and produce a greater yield.

Vic Shayne, Ph.D. Waking Times Above all else, the United States is the marketing capital of the world. Our society is built around products and services and all the ways they are advertised to us in a way designed to outpace the competition.

GMWatch Waking Times Genetically modified (GM) foods are often promoted as a way to feed the world. But this is little short of a confidence trick. Far from needing more GM foods, there are urgent reasons why we need to ban them altogether. 1. GM foods won’t solve the food crisis A 2008 World Bank …
Two Rivers, Contributing Writer Waking Times People talk about this time as a period of great awakening, a spiritual shift for humanity that will change everything, if we can only achieve it.

Lisa Garber Waking Times Remember 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, …
Zen Gardner Funny how things evolve in the pursuit of truth. We’re emotional beings. That’s why the matrix makes everything out to be so cold and scientific. When I watch certain movies or musical presentations or see a touching human moment I get emotional. I can’t help it. People are emotional, I’m emotional, and I …
