So what are these GMO's? AKA: The Terminator Seed
Here is the definition from Wikipedia:
A genetically modified organism (GMO) or genetically engineered organism (GEO) is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. These techniques, generally known as recombinant DNA technology, use DNA molecules from different sources, which are combined into one molecule to create a new set of genes. This DNA is then transferred into an organism, giving it modified or novel genes. Transgenic organisms, a subset of GMOs, are organisms that have inserted DNA from a different species. GMOs are the constituents of genetically modified foods.
Monsanto Monsanto Monsanto, another one you want to remember. Monsanto is responsible for GMO's. They are the makers of Round up and Round up ready products. In my honest opinion we should avoid buying things from this company.
Monsanto is engineering seeds by splicing in DNA from bee's, insects etc into our food. The most commonly genetically modified foods are soy, corn and canola. They are doing this to make the crops resistant to bugs, so that they can grow more, but over time it stops working and they need to modify it even more. Do you think we were meant to have DNA from insects in our food? Do you think we should be "playing God" like that? I think when we mess with our food, we mess with our lives. Anyone else think there could be a connection between GMO's and Cancer? Or between GMO's and Obesity?
These seeds are strong and overpowering, they are slowly diminishing our natural seeds. GMO's are taking over.
However, many countries have OUTLAWED GMO's! Why hasn't America followed suit? Obviously there's a reason they are getting outlawed elsewhere.
I'd have to write a book to inform you on all the negatives of GMO's, and frankly I'm not going to do that. There are enough books and documentaries out there already.
I suggest you check out some documentaries, many of them are available on Netflix.
