Green is GMO Free
Organic farming ensures the environmental sustainability of our precious lands and ecosystems. GMO crops gradually destroy our environment, depletes our natural resources and requires larger quantities of toxic fertilizers.
No Regulation of GMO Foods in the US
- GMO foods are not regulated in the US due to the political influence of Monsanto on US politicians, including our new Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilasak.
- [From Wikipedia] Vilsack has repeatedly demonstrated a preference for large industrial farms and genetically modified crops; as Iowa state governor, he originated the seed pre-emption bill in 2005, effectively blocking local communities from regulating where genetically engineered crops would be grown; additionally, Vilsack was the founder and former chair of the Governor's Biotechnology Partnership, and was named Governor of the Year by the Biotechnology Industry Organization, an industry lobbying group
- Monsanto (NYSE:MON), the largest chemical company in the world in the 20th Century that produced agent Orange, PCBs and many other chemicals is now in the 21st century the largest producer of seeds in the world.
