HOW MONSANTO KILLS THE NEWS

ORIGINAL POST
Posted by Ed 11 yrs ago
When it comes to food, it would be in your best interest to realize that you are being lied to on a daily basis. If a big company grows it, processes it and sells it, then it’s probably garbage that you’d be better off not consuming. In some cases, this problem goes far beyond “garbage” into another realm entirely.


This video is a rare glimpse behind-the-scenes of how news is really “made” in America and why corporate and “public” broadcasting – like corporate food – is entirely unreliable.

Poor old Monsanto corporation just can't make any money on Posilac, or bovine growth hormone any more- nobody wants it in the milk. Starbucks, Kroger, Dean foods and Wal-Mart are now demanding milk from rBGH-free cows.


Monsanto has been fighting back, trying to make labelling of milk as "rGBH free" illegal. "This is really a great product," a Monsanto spokeswoman, Danielle Jany, said. "The business has been strong. Sales have been strong."


Right. That is why they have put the business up for sale, so they can "focus on the company's key profit drivers of agricultural seeds and development of specific genetic traits for crops." ::New York Times

Why is American Milk Banned in Europe?


American dairy milk is genetically-modified unless it’s labeled “NO rBGH”


Genetically-engineered bovine growth hormone (rBGH) in milk increases cancer risks.


American dairy farmers inject rBGH to dairy cows to increase milk production.


European nations and Canada have banned rBGH to protect citizens from IGF-1 hazards.


Monsanto Co., the manufacturer of rBGH, has influenced U. S. product safety laws permitting the sale of unlabeled rBGH milk. (Monsanto would lose billions of dollars if rBGH were banned in America.)


Q. Is there any milk not contaminated with rBGH and IGF-1?

A. Yes. Milk that is clearly labeled “NO rBGH” is free of rBGH and does not contain excess levels of IGF-1.


Q. What about cheeses?

A. American-made cheeses are contaminated with rBGH and excess levels of IGF-1 unless they’re labeled “NO rBGH”. Imported European cheeses are safe since Europe has banned rBGH.

Monsanto GM Soy Is Scarier Than You Think


Soybeans are the second-largest US crop after corn, covering about a quarter of US farmland. We grow more soybeans than any other country except Brazil. According to the US Department of Agriculture, more than 90 percent of the soybeans churned out on US farms each year are genetically engineered to withstand herbicides, nearly all of them involving one called Roundup. Organic production, by contrast, is marginal—it accounts for less than 1 percent of total US acreage devoted to soy. (The remaining 9 percent or so of soybeans are conventionally grown, but not genetically modified.)

U.S. foreign aid is expected to promote poverty alleviation and facilitate developmental growth in impoverished countries. Yet, corporations and special interest groups have permeated even the most well-intended of U.S. policies.


El Salvador is a recent example of corporate domination in U.S. foreign aid. The United States will withhold the Millennium Challenge Compact aid deal, approximately $277 million in aid, unless El Salvador purchases genetically-modified seeds from biotech giant, Monsanto.


The Millennium Challenge Corporation is “a U.S. foreign aid agency that was created by the U.S. Congress in January 2004,” according to Sustainable Pulse, and serves as a conduit for foreign aid funds. MCC’s unethical aid conditions would force El Salvador to purchase controversial seeds from the American biotech corporation instead of purchasing non-GMO seeds from the country’s local farmers – an action that would have negative effects on El Salvador’s agricultural industry in addition to presenting serious health and environmental risks.


The conditional foreign aid from MCC is an attempt to break into El Salvador’s non-GMO agricultural sector and exploit the food market. Because El Salvador has high food insecurity, it imports 85% of its food. This allows U.S. foreign aid organizations to take advantage of the dire need for their own monetary gain. The United States used similar aid policies in Haiti to force open Haiti’s agricultural market for U.S. food products – effectively destroying Haiti’s agricultural economy and creating an overreliance on food aid.


Due to powerful lobbying by corporate giants like Monsanto, in addition to the shipping and agricultural industries, the U.S. government’s foreign aid program has become an encroaching business. Just when the U.S. foreign aid program couldn’t appear to be more corrupt, the Millennium Challenge Corporation, U.S. Congress, and Monsanto have raised the bar.

One Little Piggy Had Birth Defects: Is Monsanto's Roundup to Blame?

one large eye.
A second piglet was missing an ear. A third piglet had a large hole in
its skull. A fourth piglet had a monstrously huge "elephant tongue." A
female piglet was born with testes. Still others had malformed limbs,
spines, skulls and gastrointestinal tracts.One little piglet was born with only
The pigs
in question belonged to a Danish pig farmer. For three years he had fed
his pigs ordinary, non-genetically modified soy. When he ran out, he
bought the cheaper genetically modified (GM) soy pig feed. His herdsman,
unaware of the feed switch, immediately noticed that the pigs lost
their appetite and that the piglets developed diarrhea. Even worse was
the sudden and shocking increase in birth defects.More http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/25426-one-little-piggy-had-birth-defects-is-monsantos-roundup-to-blame

India: Selling Out To Monsanto. GMOs and the Bigger Picture

On 15 August, India will mark its 67th anniversary of independence from Britain. It may seem strange to some that a nation would publicly celebrate its independence while at the same time it less publicly cedes it to outsiders. The gleaming façade of flags and fly-pasts will belie the fact that national security and independence do not depend on military might and patriotic speeches. Eye-catching celebrations will take place in Delhi and much of the media will mouth platitudes about the strength of the nation and its independence. The reality is, however, an ongoing, concerted attempt to undermine and destroy the very foundation and security of the country.The bedrock of any society is its agriculture. Without food there can be no life. Without food security, there can be no genuine independence. A recent report by the organisation GRAIN revealed that small farms produce most of the world's food and are more productively efficient than large farms [1]. Facilitated by an appropriate policy framework, small farmers could easily feed the global population. But small farmers are currently squeezed onto less than a quarter of the world's farmland and the world is fast losing farms and farmers through the concentration of land into the hands big agribusiness and the rich and powerful. If nothing is done to reverse this trend, the world will lose its capacity to feed itself.
