Way to go Peru. Way to go.
Peru joins the List of Countries Banning Monsanto and GMOs!
Watch 14-year-old anti-GMO activist Rachel Parent in a spirited debate with Canadian businessman and Monsanto apologist Kevin O'Leary. This girl is amazing and we're definitely keeping an eye on her!
What Happens When a Wise 14-Year-Old Girl Debates a Monsanto/GMO Apologist?
New information....beyond the death by insecticide theories...we must learn and then we must DO BETTER!!
And today, Blue found out why her citrus trees are dying. Infected with a bug that can only be treated naturally...pesticides do nothing because they are now immune...and guess what it takes? A Pakistan wasp. Our little lime and lemon trees are now quarantined here in Los Angeles. And they look sad.

93% of the Public Wants GMO Labeling—Monsanto and the Big Agribusiness Giants Plan to Spend Millions in Propaganda to Change Our Minds
Polls show it will take a lot more than new public relations tricks to convince consumers.
The new merger with We the People will allow Monsanto access to all government laboratories. It will also ensure smooth and undetectable access of Monsanto’s newest GMOs and animal/plant hybrids into the general marketplace. wynn

After decades of Monsanto buying congress members, justices and presidents, the government declared, “what the hell,” and with little fanfare, assigned the agricultural giant a seat at the table, as a fourth branch of the federal government.
“You can talk about oil, national security, the economy and the environment till you’re blue in the face,” declared one Democratic Congressman, who asked to remain anonymous. “The undeniable fact is that without food, it’s all moot.”
The move took a little constitutional maneuvering. Like with constitutional amendments, adding a fourth branch of government required 2/3rds of both houses of Congress and ratification by 3/4ths of the states. All were passed almost unanimously and with almost no corporate media coverage.
Unlike the Executive, the Judicial and the Legislative branches, Monsanto’s authorities will be unilateral. They will have the authority to pass laws, arrest law-breakers and they will be able to convict to one of the nation’s numerous privately owned prisons.
The first item on Monsanto’s agenda is to declare organic farmers domestic terrorists. All squirrels, birds and other small animals that might randomly spread non-Monsanto seeds will be declared enemy combatants and will be sentenced to Gitmo. Monsanto’s scientists are working on methods of criminalizing the wind.
“We’ve managed to all but get rid of the pesky bees,” remarked Monsanto spokesperson, Alfred Machete. “Natural pollination is unsustainable, at least as long as we’re in business and we intend that to be an eternity.”
Not all of Monsanto’s priorities will revolve around law enforcement. The new merger with We the People will allow Monsanto access to all government laboratories. It will also ensure smooth and undetectable access of Monsanto’s newest GMOs and animal/plant hybrids into the general marketplace.
“Look,” continued Machete, “we’re trying to go back to nature. Before all this food labeling, people had to choose what to put on the dinner table based on the way their food looked and felt. Blood transfusions will give our tomatoes and beef the reddest red. Kitten DNA will make peaches touchably soft. When you are faced with specimens of physical perfection, who even wants to buy wormy organics, anyway?”
When asked about the taste, Machete replied, “I don’t know, I’ve never tried our food.”
Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), one of the few dissenters, expressed concern that this would take away many of Americans’ rights, then he was suddenly gone. He has since been unavailable for comment.

Launching a lawsuit against the very company that is responsible for a farmer suicide every 30 minutes, 5 million farmers are now suing Monsanto for as much as 6.2 billion euros (around 7.7 billion US dollars). The reason? As with many other cases, such as the ones that led certain farming regions to be known as the ‘suicide belt’, Monsanto has been reportedly taxing the farmers to financial shambles with ridiculous royalty charges. The farmers state that Monsanto has been unfairly gathering exorbitant profits each year on a global scale from “renewal” seed harvests, which are crops planted using seed from the previous year’s harvest.
The practice of using renewal seeds dates back to ancient times, but Monsanto seeks to collect massive royalties and put an end to the practice. Why? Because Monsanto owns the very patent to the genetically modified seed, and is charging the farmers not only for the original crops, but the later harvests as well. Eventually, the royalties compound and many farmers begin to struggle with even keeping their farm afloat. It is for this reason that India slammed Monsanto with groundbreaking ‘biopiracy’ charges in an effort to stop Monsanto from ‘patenting life’.
Jane Berwanger, a lawyer for the farmers who went on record regarding the case,
told the Associated Press:
“Monsanto gets paid when it sell the seeds. The law gives producers the right to multiply the seeds they buy and nowhere in the world is there a requirement to pay (again). Producers are in effect paying a private tax on production.”
The findings echo what thousands of farmers have experienced in particularly poor nations, where many of the farmers are unable to stand up to Monsanto. Back in 2008, the Daily Mail covered what is known as the ‘GM Genocide’, which is responsible for taking the lives of over 17,683 Indian farmers in 2009 alone. After finding that their harvests were failing and they started to enter economic turmoil, the farmers began ending their own lives — oftentimes drinking the very same insecticide that Monsanto provided them with.
As the information continues to surface on Monsanto’s crimes, further lawsuits will begin to take effect. After it was ousted in January that Monsanto was running illegal 'slave-like' working rings, more individuals became aware of just how seriously Monsanto seems to disregard their workers — so why would they care for the health of their consumers? In April, another group of farmers sued Monsanto for ‘knowingly poisoning’ workers and causing ‘devastating birth defects’.
Will endless lawsuits from millions of seriously affected individuals be the end of Monsanto?
