The World According To Monsanto: Pollution, Corruption, And The Control Of The World's Food Supply (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
Monsanto is the spawn of Satan. So this is why we should go organic.I still find the logic under which genes were granted patents incomprehensible. And how big corporations are tainting academia with falsified or manipulated scientific studies meant to booster their products, and censoring those that reveal potentially toxic results, is unacceptable. Why companies are seen as one entity in a court of law and simply fined a sum of money less than the profit they obtained through violating environmental regulations, concealing information regarding the toxicity of their products, and causing irrevocable damage to public health is beyond me. Individuals who were in charge should be put behind bars and stripped of their wealth, not left free to capitalize off of causing more damage to the world. I knew Monsanto was bad, I just didn't know how bad and for how long they have manipulated the system. Each paragraph describes a person or a town destroyed by chemicals, a falsified study supporting the harmlessness of the chemicals created and used by Monsanto or the long way down of the whistle blower who tried to notify someone of the harm they found through accurate research. There was so much info, it read like a textbook, and sometimes I lost focus on numbers. But I am definitely more focused on eating Non GMO's.
What do You think about The World According To Monsanto: Pollution, Corruption, And The Control Of The World's Food Supply (2010)?
I started this skeptically and ended thinking I might never feed my kid non-organic food again.
