    The GMO Deception is a compendia of facts, opinions ...
  

*by D***D on Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2017*

The GMO Deception is a compendia of facts, opinions and statements from different authorities, some from years in the past.  This review, therefore, may contain information that is now irrelevant or has been superseded.A trade organization of the biotech industry reported that by 2012 some 17 million farmers in 28 countries would have planted genetically modified crops.  The engineering process outcome is translatable into unintended consequences (potential harm to health and the environment because of the lack of precision and control.Globally some 35 crops feed humanity but only four are genetically commercialized: soy, corn, canola, and cotton.  The vast majority of the world's 195 countries have not accepted GMO's; only 0.38 percent of world farmers grow GMO food.  Evidence today shows that GMO's are allergenic, are toxic to cells and organs, and compromise the nutritional value of subject foods.  Environmental hazards of using GMO's increase the need to use toxic carcinogenic and teratogenic compounds (Roundup from Monsanto).On page 45 the author(s) state: "To date there is not a single GMO on the market that delivers...higher intrinsic yields than the natural crops..."  No engineered crops are drought resistant, none have enhanced nutrition or any attractive-sounding traits.The genetics of the major crops grown on US farms are controlled by a half dozen multinational interests.  Not publicized as such by seed and food cartels but the real issue is now "food sovereignty" and food control becomes nation control under political style management.Agricultural yield increases have always been an annual necessity in India, the world's second most populous and growing area.  Farmers' suicides are endemic in certain regions and are related to heavy debt loads needed to finance seed and food production.  The main culprit on failed farms is related to the biotechnology cotton that was financially disastrous and causally implicated in the suicides.  Cattle have reportedly perished and 16 sheep died after grazing on biotechnology cotton fields.Bill and Melinda Gates are known globally as philanthropists.  They are less known, no doubt, as champions for GMO as a solution for world hunger under a technocratic ideology , a position that runs counter to informed science.  Bill Gates funds front groups who work with Monsanto and others who see world hunger as a growing business and industrial opportunity.Back to Monsanto, described on page 98 as having a history of criminality that includes the production of Agent Orange, dioxin, and PCB's, all declared as safe by Monsanto.Years of domestic turmoil threatens southern Africa with starvation alongside drought conditions and failed harvests.Biotech cotton farmers in India and China often apply as much pesticide to engineered cotton as they do to conventional cotton.  But they may have paid up to four times as much for the biotech seed, accompanied by debt and despair and frequent suicides.Monsanto, Syngenta, Dupont and Bayer now control 41% of the global seed supply.

    Extensive Review of Timely Issue
  

*by P***L on Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2014*

This is the most authoritative and comprehensive review of the subject I have found to date. It covers nearly every topic you could think of relating to GMOs, from a variety of perspectives, and from well qualified scientists. Most chapters are interesting and it is nice being able to read them in any order. This is a great collection of information that would be hard to find elsewhere without doing lots of research."The essays in this volume were written by more than fifty scientists and public policy experts, whose analyses of GMOs represent many disciplines and public interest perspectives. If we add to their voices the viewpoints of the references they cite, we have literally hundreds of commentaries that bear witness to the deceptions associated with the promoters of GMOs. The real and potentially adverse effects of GMOs have been understated or negated by government and corporations, neglected by the press, and ignored by many in the scientific community who accept uncritically a corporate-crafted message. A fair-minded and unbiased individual looking at all the evidence must reach the conclusion that there is a great deal we do not know and what we do know impels us to be both cautious and concerned, skeptical of an early manufactured consensus, and critical of a framing that fails to recognize the diversity of public objections to GMOS." - Excerpt

    I think this is a good source of information on genetically modified foods
  

*by M***M on Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2014*

I think this is a good source of information on genetically modified foods. There are many other scientists who have also expressed their reservations about the use of seeds which are genetically modified, especially those modified to withstand heavy spraying with herbicides (weedkillers, such as Roundup, Dow Duo Enlist (2,4-D combined with Roundup) and others on the way. I am thankful for their efforts and wish more of this was in the mainstream media. People deserve to know what they are eating and honest, unbiased research is needed to assure the safety of any technology used to this extent to produce the nation's food supply. This book shows there is absolutely scientific dissent on this issue (55 essays- and these writers are not alone.) I hope that greater caution with this technology will be taken to protect our health. The presence of these chemicals in babies' cord blood, breastmilk and household water is definitely a cause for concern. I wish the US would employ the precautionary principal like many other countries have.
