Rapport: Monsantos "Roundup" dödade 970 miljoner fjärilar - DDT:s skapare slår till på nytt

I en ny rapport  från USA:s fiskeri och -viltvårdsmyndigheter så slås det fast att Monsantos "säkra" gift "Roundup" tillsammans med GMO-manipulerad säd orsakat att upp emot en miljard Monark-fjärilar dött över hela USA. Monsantos välkända växtgift i kombination med Monsantos "GMO-säd-system" har nästan utrotat fjärilsarten totalt i Amerika och minst 90% av det tidigare beståndet är numera försvunnet...
***
Monsanto är det internationella GMO-företaget som tidigare gjort sig känt för att ha skapat växtgifter som Agent Orange och DDT.

Media mörklägger oftast alla negativa nyheter som har med Monsanto att göra eftersom medieägare och banker har stora investeringar och vinstintressen i företaget, vilket för övrigt även marknadsförs globalt av USA:s regering.

Till och med när flera miljoner människor världen över demonstrerar mot Monsanto, så mörkar media ändå synkront händelsen, för att inte stöta sig med elitens vinstintressen.

Monsanto monarch massacre:
970 million butterflies killed since 1990

***
RT 2015-02-10
The beautiful monarch butterfly, which is also a major pollinator, is being threatened by herbicides that eradicate milkweed, its primary food source. Now, a desperate rejuvenation program is under way to save the species from possible extinction.

A shocking statistic released by the US Fish and Wildlife Service on Monday summed up the plight of the monarch butterfly: Since 1990, about 970 million of the butterflies – 90 percent of the total population – have vanished across the United States.

The massacre provides a grim testimony to the delicate balance that exists between man and nature, and how the introduction of a single consumer product – in this case, Monsanto’s Roundup Ready herbicide – can wreak so much havoc.

Sold to farmers and homeowners as an effective method for eliminating milkweed plants, Roundup Ready, introduced in the 1970s, is widely blamed for decimating the monarch butterflies’ only source of food in the Midwest.

“This report is a wake-up call. This iconic species is on the verge of extinction because of Monsanto's Roundup Ready crop system,” said Andrew Kimbrell, executive director for the Center for Food Safety, which last week released a report describing the effects of herbicide-resistant crops on monarch butterflies in North America.

“- To let the monarch butterfly die out in order to allow Monsanto to sell its signature herbicide for a few more years is simply shameful.”

The widespread death of the monarch butterfly has prompted some groups, like the Center for Biological Diversity, to demand the butterfly be placed on the endangered species list.

Dan Ashe, director of Fish and Wildlife Service, preferred to take a diplomatic approach to Monsanto’s hefty contribution to the problem, saying everyone is responsible for the plight of the monarch butterfly.

“We’ve all been responsible. We are the consumers of agricultural products. I eat corn. American farmers are not the enemy. Can they be part of the solution? Yes,” Ashe said.

“It’s not about this wonderful, mystical creature. It’s about us.” [...]

-About Roundup Ready Crops-

(*Genetically Modified Food)

***
Roundup Ready crops are crops genetically modified to be resistant to the herbicide Roundup. Roundup is the brand-name of a herbicide produced by Monsanto. 


Its active ingredient glyphosate was patented in the 1970s. Roundup is widely used by both people in their backyards and farmers in their fields. Roundup Ready plants are resistant to Roundup, so farmers that plant these seeds must use Roundup to keep other weeds from growing in their fields.

The first Roundup Ready crops were developed in 1996, with the introduction of genetically modified soybeans that are resistant to Roundup. These crops were developed to help farmers control weeds.

Because the new crops are resistant to Roundup, the herbicide can be used in the fields to eliminate unwanted foliage. Current Roundup Ready crops include soy, corn, canola, alfalfa, cotton, and sorghum, with wheat under development.

Roundup Ready crop seeds have notoriously been referred to as "terminator seeds." This is because the crops produced from Roundup Ready seeds are sterile.

Each year, farmers must purchase the most recent strain of seed from Monsanto. This means that farmers cannot reuse their best seed.

Monsanto controversy
***
Monsanto has run into controversy before over its glysophate-based Roundup Ready product. It is even being blamed by some for a sharp spike in suicide rates among Indian farmers, many of whom could not afford to continue buying the Ready Roundup seeds and herbicides.

The Indian farmers would not receive a loan “if they don’t go with the GMOs,” the head of the Council for Responsible Genetics, Sheldon Krimsky, told RT. “And many of them felt coerced to take the GM seeds. 

The GM crops have not done as well in all regions of India... [That has led to] much greater indebtedness with the GM crops that did not perform as well.”  [...]

“- Two hundred and eighty-four thousand farmers have committed suicide in India because of debt linked to seed and chemicals,” Vandana Shiva, an Indian environmental activist and anti-globalization author, said last year ahead of the March Against Monsanto global protests. 

“Monsanto have claimed more than 1,500 climate resilient patents, and are hoping to use the climate crisis to make even bigger profits,” Shiva says claiming that:

“Monsanto wants super profits through total control over nature and humanity.” ***

Last year,
hundreds of thousands of people united around the world to raise awareness over the biotech giant Monsanto’s growing grip on the global food supply chain.

Activists on five continents around the globe, comprising 52 nations, joined the fight under the March against Monsanto umbrella.

Snacka om verklig terror: - Monsanto har orsakat 291 000 självmord i Indien efter 1995

Monsanto syns sällan eller aldrig i mainstreammedia eftersom det är viktigt för kapitalet som finansierar företagets USA-ledda globala verksamhet, att hålla folk ovetande och ignoranta om riskerna med företagets GMO-strategi och företagets planer på att kontrollera matproduktionen i världen... http://undermattans.blogspot.se/2014/11/snacka-om-verklig-terror-monsanto-har.html

Avslöjat: Monsanto mörkar forskningsresultat som inte passar agendan för GMO-globalisering

Den undersökande journalisten James Corbett, på Corbett Report, har den här gången ansträngt sig ännu mer än vanligt i sin research. I Corbetts nya video avslöjas Monsantos selektiva urval och skandalösa censur av oönskade forskningsresultat. Agendan för den lönsamma globaliseringen av GMO-produkter är mycket viktigare än kundernas (din) hälsa för både Monsanto och för våra styrande politiker här i väst ...
**
...Varför skall företag egentligen behöva märka produkter som innehåller genmanipulerade ingredienser?

- Helt onödigt, enligt Monsanto, företaget som bl.a. gett oss både DDT och Agent Orange. SÅ mycket lättare att bara stifta lagar som förbjuder GMO-märkning. Då slipper flocken välja om den vill stoppa i sig samma mat som råttorna åt i den numera censurerade forskningen...

- Monsantos logik är; "- Det kunderna inte vet, har de inte ont av." Kunderna ska tydligen istället vara försökskaniner, precis som råttorna på bilden ovanför...  

- Lycka till med det...

Genetic Fallacy:
- How Monsanto Silences Scientific Dissent

***
Publicerad den 3 dec 2013
- That a former Monsanto scientist should find himself in charge of a  specially-created post at the very journal that published two landmark  studies questioning the safety of that company's products should  surprise no one who is aware of the Monsanto revolving door. 

This door is responsible for literally dozens of Monsanto officials, lobbyists and consultants finding themselves in positions of authority in the government bodies that are supposedly there to regulate the company and its actions.

GMO crops may cause major environmental risks, USDA admits

***
RT February 24, 2014.
A new report published by the United States Department of Agriculture demonstrates that the vast majority of corn and soybean crops grown in America are genetically-engineered variants made to withstand certain conditions and chemicals.

But while GMO seeds have been sowed on US soil for 15 years now, the latest USDA report reveals that Americans still have concerns about consuming custom-made, laboratory-created products, albeit nowhere near as much as in Europe.

The report was released by the USDA’s Economic Research Service and published on their website Feb. 20. And though the paper takes into consideration the trends that have shaped how scientists and agriculturists have approached genetically-modified organisms since they were first introduced in the US a decade-and-a-half ago, the consensus seems to be that no one is certain just yet about what toll the surge in GMOs will truly have.[...]

  1. Glyphosate (Monsanto Roundup) Could Combine with Aluminum to Increase Neurological and Gut Flora Disorders

    By Jennifer Lilley Natural News 13 February 2015

    It’s no secret that mention of the word glyphosate angers many health-conscious people, while those affiliated with Monsanto, makers of Roundup, stand by their product.

    Although numerous data show that the main ingredient in the commonly used weedkiller can wreak havoc on health, Monsanto-loyal folks say it’s safe. They maintain this position despite the fact that glyphosate, which is sprayed on millions of acres of crops, has been linked to everything from fertility issues to autism.

    One study, published in Entropy, notes that its “[n]egative impact on the body is insidious and manifests slowly over time as inflammation damages cellular systems throughout the body.”(1)

    Its author, Dr. Stephanie Seneff, is the same person who co-authored a more recent study that hones in on the health problems caused by glyphosate. However, this latest study digs even deeper, making a strong case that glyphosate and aluminum, an environmental toxin which is also very prevalent in society, work together to deliver a double-whammy to brain and gut health.[...]
