March against Monsanto NaturalNews) This coming Saturday, May 25, 2013, there is going to me a nationwide march against Monsanto.
Because
of Monsanto's stupidity, callousness, and total disregard for people's
health, they have made people aware of little regard they have for
anything other than their profits and domination of the food supply.
This
awareness has created an amazing number of groups in just about every
state that opposes Monsanto. Try to find a group in your area and
participate.
You may ask, "Why should I do this?"
1.
Monsanto has created a food that has been touted as virtually resistant
to enormous amounts of herbicides and pesticides sprayed on it like
Agent Orange. Come on, do you really want to eat like that?
2 Monsanto has their hand in the chemtrails because they want to see what effect that the arsenic,
mercury,
barium, strontium, aluminum and others have on their crops. If it does
have an adverse effect on their crops, rest assured that they will come
up with a stronger resistant to be sprayed on their crops. Do you really
want to eat that? Oh yeah, they could care less about how the
chemtrails affect commercial and organic crops. If it kills them, all
the better for Monsanto.
3. After Monsanto's alleged victory in
California regarding Proposition 37 and the defeat of California
labeling GMOs, Pandora's box got wide open and the s**t hit the fan.
States started to initiate labeling laws to such a degree that Monsanto
is now petitioning their "hookers" in the House of Representatives and
the Senate in Washington, D.C. (District of Deception and Corruption) to
add a rider to the Farm Bill to prohibit individual states from passing
labeling laws. If Monsanto's food is so good, why do they go to such
lengths to make sure YOU do not know what you are eating?
4. When Obama first campaigned in 2008 and promised he would push for
GMO labeling, why, when he got elected, did he appoint former Monsanto
people to key government positions and develop amnesia about his
promise? Check out the revolving door participants:
Michael A.
Friedman, the Acting Commissioner of the FDA was the VP of Clinical
Affairs at the G.D. Searle pharmaceutical company, which merged with
Monsanto;
Arthur Hull Hayes, A former FDA Commissioner and consultant to Searle's public relation's firm;
Margaret Miller, appointed as Deputy Director of the FDA in 19991, was a top Monsanto scientist who
oversaw the approval of rBGH, Monsanto's bovine growth hormone;
Suzanne Sechen, an FDA reviewer on scientific data, worked on the rBGH hormone in connection with
Cornell University;
Michael
Taylor, appointed by Obama as the FDA "Food Czar", was an attorney for
Monsanto for 7 years and head of the Monsanto Washington, D.C. office;
Clarence Thomas, appointed to the Supreme Court in 1991, was a former Monsanto attorney;
Anne Veneman, appointed head of the USDA in 20021, served on the Board of Directors at Calgene,
a Monsanto Biotech Subsidiary;
Dr.
Virginia Weldon, who was a member of the FDA's Metabolism and Endocrine
Advisory Committee, is a retired VP for public policy at Monsanto;
Linda Fisher, the Deputy Administrator of the EPA, was Monsanto's VP of Public and Government Affairs;
Roger Beachy, the USDA, and NIFA Director, was the Director of Monsanto's Danforth Center;
Elena Kagen, nominated by Obama to the Supreme Court, and now a member, represented Monsanto
In a seed case. You know, a case where seeds from a Monsanto field blow over to an independent
farmer's field and Monsanto sues them for theft;
Hillary
Clinton, our Secretary of State who washed her hands of the Benghazi
killing of the US Ambassador, worked for the Rose Law Firm, who did work
for Monsanto.
People, this is the tip of the iceberg. Isn't it
time to say, "Enough is enough? Isn't it time to elect people to
represent the people and not the corporations? Isn't it time to call
your elected officials and tell them to oppose the Farm Bill rider to
ban the states from initiating labeling laws?
Senator Barbara
Boxer has introduced an amendment to the 2013 farm bill that would
support GMO labeling. Call your Senator and him/her you want Senator
Boxer's amendment supported. The Capitol switchboard number is (202)
224-3121. The operator will connect you to your Senator's office.
According
to Ocean Robbins, "there's a lot more at stake here in the farm Bill,
including support for organic agriculture, investments in local and
sustainable
food systems, critical conservation efforts that help farmers protect our air, soil, and water, and dozens of other amendments. "
If
you want to "stay tuned", go to the National Sustainable Agriculture
Coalition's site, which is continually updated with a "take action"
page, and sign up.
Bear in mind that people everywhere are waking
up to the disastrous health ramifications of producing and consuming
GMOs, with Hawaii considered the GMO "Ground Zero".
According to the research done by Nomi Carbona of
www.babesagainstbiotech.com, over 5,000 open air experimental GMO species have been released in
Hawaii, more than anywhere else on the planet. Hawaii is also called the
"Endangered Species Capitol of the World." GMOs present unreasonable
and dire hazards to native species and the biodiversity of Hawaii
agriculture, local food production, sustainability and human health.
Chemicals associated with GMO 'farming' have instigated lawsuits for
chemical poisoning and Hawaii citizens and visitors are exposed to
experimental genes and chemicals as cancer clusters throughout the
islands are investigated.
Major GMO seed companies are comprised
of multi-national chemical corporations, which genetically engineer
pesticide, insecticide and herbicide resistance as well as toxins into
agriculture and our food supply include Monsanto, DOW, Bayer, BASF,
Pioneer/DuPont/ Syngenta. These companies are contaminating Hawaii
agriculture land genetically and chemically experimenting in the open
air of paradise and growing/exporting non-edible seeds, free from
General Excise Tax, while Hawaii imports more than 90% of our food. GMO
manufacturing companies have been found guilty of chemical poisoning on
numerous occasions and lawsuits for pesticide damages have already been
filed on the island of Kauai.
GMOs are banned in 29 countries for
risks to human and environmental health, with GMO labeling required in
61 nations. Millions in GMO company campaign contributions across the
United States political arena appear to influence the allowance of at
least 80 percent of processed foods in the USA containing genetically
engineered ingredients.
A women in Salt Lake City, Utah decided
to do something grassroots about it by calling for all people to
demonstrate peacefully on the same day. So, May 25, 2013 spread like an
out of control tsunami and the idea was picked up globally. Now, over
183 cities in more than 30 countries will march against Monsanto. In
Hawaii alone, over 8,000 people have marched against GMOs in 2013, so
far.
In closing, besides asking you to take part, I would like to
leave you with some words by Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a scientist at MIT:
"The
pathologies to which glyphosate (the active ingredient in Monsanto's
Roundup, which is enormously sprayed on their crops) could plausibly
contribute, through its known bio-semiotic effects, include inflammatory
bowel disease, entropy, obesity, depression, ADHD, autism, Alzheimer's
disease, Parkinson's disease, ALS, multiple sclerosis, asthma, cancer,
cachexia, infertility, erectile dysfunction, and development
malformations.
Glyphosate works synergistically with other factors,
such as insufficient sun exposure, dietary deficiencies in critical
nutrients such as sulfur and zinc, and synergistic exposure to other
xenobiotics whose detoxification is impaired by glyphosate."
And now Monsanto is spraying Agent Orange. Yummy!
When all is seemingly lost and out of control, sit back, relax, take a deep breath, and "remember the Alamo."
We are the Alamo that Monsanto is attacking.
Aloha!
