To companies like Monsanto, Syngenta, and others, Hawaiian Islands have become dumping grounds for their chemical GMO warfare on our food supply.
Two Australian researchers have found that CSIRO-developed GMO wheat which was created to silence particular genes within the crop can also silence certain rNA and DNA sequences in the human body, causing fatality as early as age five or six. The researchers are calling the GMO wheat a ‘safety’ issue, which requires more profundity before the genetically modified crop is planted in more areas of Australia and offered in products in grocery stores. Professor Jack Heinemann of the University of Canterbury, NZ, and Associate […]
A 14 year old GMO opponent, Rachel Parent, recently blasted TV host Kevin O’Leary for remarks he made about GMOs. She explains how GMOs are dangerous.
Driving around with GMO fruit and veggies on his car, it appears one GMO activist is using some humor to get the word out on GMO dangers and awareness.
As awareness surrounding genetically modified organisms continues to balloon around the world, more and more companies are choosing to steer clear of GMOs.

In Africa, New Jersey, the UK, Russia, and Mexico, edible organic gardens are paving the way to a new trend in food sustainability and a way to give GMO companies a run for their money. These gardens may just be the answer we’ve been looking for.
There is no question that the genetically modified foods infiltrating our food supply are causing negative health effects and compromising the quality of the ecosystem. Numerous studies reveal how genetically modified crops are leading to issues like pesticide-resistant superweeds, superbugs, and even cancerous tumors when consumption is involved. But the genetic modification we’re working so hard to prevent goes beyond the food supply; even trees are being genetically engineered, and some experts say that these genetically modified trees are even […]
The fight against Monsanto has heated up like never before, especially with the recent March Against Monsanto and other campaigns that have been rooted in similar activism. But the simple reality is that it doesn’t take a PHD to realize how Monsanto’s genetic manipulation of the food supply is an assault on the health of the world — an experiment to which we do not know the full extent of the damage. Instead, as 11-year-old Birke Baehr shows us, it […]
