The Garden of Eden - For Sale

from Mad Science: The Genetic Crossroad With Anna Kavanaugh · host Anna Kavanaugh | Living Eden Media, LLC

The GMO industry wants to own the genetic blueprints of all existing food sources around the globe. 250,000 farmer suicides in India, forced GMO compliance by European countries under threat of exclusion from the union, and even the swift impeachment of a South American President and extermination of native seeds are all frightening glimpses into the overtaking of world crops. Henry Kissinger said, "If you control the oil, you control nations. If you control the food, you control the people." What once was the proverbial Garden of Eden has surreptitiously become the property of an unregulated and untested industry. And consumers are paying the price.
