May 8, 2013 Common Dreams Foodopoly. It’s about the corporate control of every aspect of our food system, from how what we eat is labeled to the pesticides we’re exposed to. We, the people, must reclaim our democracy. We must reestablish strong antitrust laws to begin the work of fixing our broken, corporate-controlled food system. Our food system should work for consumers and farmers, not big agricultural, processing, retail, and chemical conglomerates. How has consolidation enabled Monsanto, Tyson, Nestle, Kraft, Cargill, McDonalds and other giant companies to write our food policy, and why is it about to get worse? Foodopoly delves into the history of food and farm policy to explain how the food supply became so consolidated. For example, only four gigantic companies process 80 percent of the beef we eat, and only four retailers sell 50 percent of the groceries. Today, one out of every three dollars spent on groceries in the United States goes to Walmart. The top 10 fast-food companies control 47 percent of all fast food sales. Together, these industries have commandeered local economies, and now it is clear that the era of family farmers and mom and pop stores has ended. What’s not as clear is the effect this has on our political system... http://www.commondreams.org/view/2013/05/08-7 @WenonahHauter - Wenonah Hauter's new book Foodopoly exposes the real culprits threatening our food system — consolidation and corporate control — which are preventing farmers from raising healthy crops and limiting the choices people can make in the grocery store.

29 April 2013 - LifeWise Europe will enforce the world’s first continent-wide ban on widely used insecticides linked to serious harm in bees, after a European commission vote on Monday, April 29, 2013. The landmark suspension is a victory for millions of environment campaigners concerned about dramatic declines in bees who were backed by experts at the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). But it is a serious defeat for the chemical companies who make billions a year from the products and also UK ministers, who both argued that the ban will harm food production. “Today’s pesticide ban throws Europe’s bees a vital lifeline, following a massive campaign backed by 2.6 million people,” said Iain Keith, at Avaaz. “Europe is taking science seriously and must now put the full ban in place, to give bees the breathing space they need.”... http://southweb.org/lifewise/europe-will-enforces-worlds-first-continent-wide-ban-on-insecticides-harming-bees/ May 22, 2013 Focusing On Wildlife

October 10, 2012 Mother Jones, Tom Philpott A blistering new Oxfam report debunks the theory that export crops are the best use of land in the developing world. This idea dominates the marketing material of giant agrichemical firms like Monsanto. "In order to feed the world's growing population, farmers must produce more food in the next fifty years than they have in the past 10,000 years combined"... The globe's farms are already producing enough food to feed 12 billion people—twice the current population and a third again more than the peak of 9 billion expected to be reached in 2050. Yet at least 925 million people lack access to enough to eat. What causes hunger isn't insufficient crop yields but rather people's economic relationships to food: whether they have access to land to grow it, or sufficient income to buy it. http://www.motherjones.com/tom-philpott/2012/10/want-feed-world-first-stop-land-grabs May 21, 2013 Jeffrey Hollender THE POVERTY CREATION INDUSTRY http://www.jeffreyhollender.com/?p=2799 WATCH: PBSNewshour Video Report +++IN EL SALVADOR, AMERICAN JUNK FOOD CREATING CHAOS WITH HEALTH, CHILDREN AND CULTURAL NORMS http://sco.lt/5qSxOL FAST FOOD, SLOW DEATH : "Food Deserts" and the Corporate Food Monopoly http://www.scoop.it/t/agriculture-gmos-pesticides/p/3599063380/fast-food-slow-death-food-deserts-and-the-corporate-food-monopoly March-April 2012 Watershed Sentinel

COUNCIL FOR RESPONSIBLE GENETICS - GENE WATCH Synthetic biology is a nascent but rapidly growing field, worth over $1.6 billion in annual sales today and expected to grow to 10.8 billion by 2016.3 Many of the largest energy, chemical, forestry, pharmaceutical, food and agribusiness corporations are investing in synthetic biology research and development or establishing joint ventures, and a handful of products have already reached the cosmetic, food, and medical sectors with many others not far behind. Much of this focus is being placed on agriculture applications to become the next wave of GMOs - let's call them synthetically modified organisms (SMOs).... THE PERILS OF SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY What's different and possibly more hazardous about synthetic biology is that the DNA sequences and genes being used are increasingly different than those found in nature. While some of these developments sound promising, synthetic biology also has a dark side. If an SMO were to be released into the environment, either intentionally (say, as an agricultural crop) or unintentionally from a lab, they could have serious and irreversible impacts on the ecosystem. Synthetic organisms may become our next invasive organisms, finding an ecological niche, displacing wild populations and disrupting entire ecosystems.8 SMOs will lead to genetic pollution-as happens commonly with GMOs-and create synthetic genetic pollution which will be impossible to clean up or recall. Using genes synthesized on a computer instead of those originally found in nature also raises questions about human safety and the possibility that SMOs could become a new source of food allergens or toxins... Biotechnology is already regulated poorly in the U.S., and SMOs will only push the boundaries of this antiquated regulatory system. For example, the U.S. Department of Agriculture regulates GMOs through plant pest laws, since most have been engineered through a plant virus. Synthetic biology opens up the possibility for SMOs to be created without plant viruses, meaning those crops may be completely unregulated by the USDA-or any agency.,, http://www.councilforresponsiblegenetics.org/GeneWatch/GeneWatchPage.aspx?pageId=458 May 7, 2014 New York Times

Even as the industry corralled and spent upwards of $46 million to eke out a 51.7% to 48.3% marginal victory at the ballot box, they were maneuvering to release a new generation of products that are less regulated, less healthy and less understood by the American public...

January 22, 2013 Global Possibilities There are massively disturbing ethical, environmental, and health concerns that make the introduction of Frankenfish highly controversial... Frankenfish could be on your dinner plate by the end of the year. On December 21, at the very end of the last business day before Christmas week, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) quietly released its environmental assessment that found “no significant impact” from the controversial AquaBounty AquaAdvantage transgenic salmon.,, What is the rationale behind genetically engineered salmon? Why have scientists spliced genes from an eel-like creature called the ocean pout into the genome of the Atlantic salmon? These genes crank out growth hormone year-round, resulting in a fish that grows faster, cutting the time to reach market weight almost in half. This could mean cost savings for fish farmers, leading to higher profits for the salmon farming industry and (they promise) lower prices for consumers. But there are massively disturbing ethical, environmental, and health concerns that make the introduction of Frankenfish highly controversial... http://www.globalpossibilities.org/is-genetically-engineered-salmon-safe/ May 1, 2013 Nature

March 7, 2013 - ETC GROUP A new report by the ETC Group exposes how six multinational biotechnology companies control agriculture research globally, and what they seek to do to placate anti-trust regulators and soften opposition to GMOs. A report released by ETC Group warns that 6 multinational Gene Giants control the current priorities and future direction of agriculture research worldwide. Syngenta, Bayer, BASF, Dow, Monsanto and DuPont control 59.8 % of commercial seeds and 76.1 % of agrochemicals. The same 6 companies account for at least 76 % of all private sector R&D in these two sectors. Amid unprecedented corporate concentration, ETC Group’s report provides a critical look at new initiatives launched by the Gene Giants – including the false promise of cheap, post-patent GE seeds – aiming to appease antitrust regulators and pass off oligopolistic practices as acts of charity. Meanwhile, the world’s two richest men – Bill Gates and Mexico’s Carlos Slim – are teaming up with CIMMYT (the international public maize and wheat breeding center based in Mexico) to get bargain GE seeds and traits in the hands of farmers in the global South... http://www.etcgroup.org/content/NR-gene-giants-seek-philanthrogopoly ETC Group: GENE GIANTS STOCKPILE PATENTS ON "CLIMATE-READY" CROPS IN BID TO BECOME BIOMASSTERS http://www.etcgroup.org/content/gene-giants-stockpile-patents-%E2%80%9Cclimate-ready%E2%80%9D-crops-bid-become-biomassters-0 THE SEED PATENT GAME: Do Seed Companies Control GM Crop Research? - Scientific American http://sco.lt/6wNeiX MEXICO: GENE GIANTS PREPARE THE GENETIC WIPE-OUT OF ONE OF WORLD'S MOST IMPORTANT FOOD CROP http://sco.lt/7TN70z DOES FOOD SECURITY'S FUTURE LIE IN ORGANIC SEEDS? http://sco.lt/8I0UGP ================ GATES FOUNDATION ---------------------- WORLD'S TWO RICHEST MEN - GATES AND SLIM - LAUNCH BIOTECH GMO AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH CENTER IN MEXICO (Away From Any USA Regulations) http://sco.lt/5ig9q5 March 21, 2013 -

Executives from Monsanto Co., DuPont, and Dow Chemical, among the world's largest developers of biotech crops and the chemicals used to help produce them, told Reuters this week they are putting together a campaign aimed at turning the tide on what they acknowledge is a growing public sentiment against genetically modified organisms (GMOs) used as ingredients in the nation's food supply... http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/04/25/us-usa-gmo-labeling-idUSBRE93O18S20130425 WATCH: Video +++"MONSANTO FOOD WARS: GMO SEEDS AND ANIMALS" http://www.scoop.it/t/agriculture-gmos-pesticides/p/3997411054/watch-monsanto-food-wars-gmo-seeds-and-animals Video +++"GENETIC ROULETTE" The Gamble of Our Lives http://youtu.be/wnlTYFKBg18 Video >>> MONSANTO A DOCUMENTARY ON GMO A MUST WATCH YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omtYlsG1P5U May 22, 2013 Common Dreams >>> RALLYING CRY: CITIZENS WORLDWIDE TO UNITE IN 'MARCH AGAINST MONSANTO' SATURDAY, MAY 25 http://www.commondreams.org/headline/2013/05/22-9 March 22, 2013 TruthOut

14 Jan 2013 World Development Movement The UK government is yet again undermining grassroots poverty alleviation by channelling UK aid towards huge agribusiness. The Hunger Games, a report recently published by War on Want, criticises the Department for International Development (DfID) for working with the ‘who’s who’ of agrochemical and GM seed companies including Monsanto, Unilever and Syngenta. In coalition with these companies, DfID is funding dodgy agricultural initiatives such as the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA). This initiative in particular seeks to “trigger a uniquely African green revolution” by promoting networks of GM seed and agrochemical providers to small farmers.... http://www.wdm.org.uk/multinational-corporations/hunger-games REPORT: THE HUNGER GAMES 2012 - DOWNLOAD.pdf http://www.waronwant.org/attachments/The%20Hunger%20Games%202012.pdf May 21, 2013 Jeffrey Hollender THE POVERTY CREATION INDUSTRY http://www.jeffreyhollender.com/?p=2799 HOW NOT TO "FEED THE WORLD" http://sco.lt/6fKNnN BEWARE OF A CALL FOR A "GREENER REVOLUTION' CORPORATE TAKEOVER OF GLOBAL FOOD SUPPLY http://sco.lt/7sYm1Z >>>>>WATCH VIDEO: THE MYTH OF THE AFRICAN 'GREEN REVOLUTION' - Vandana Shiva http://www.scoop.it/t/agriculture-gmos-pesticides/p/1562042292/the-myth-of-the-african-green-revolution-video-vandana-shiva AFRICA - SOLD: OBAMA PUTS BIG 6 CHEMICAL GMO GIANTS IN CHARGE OF 'ENDING HUNGER' IN AFRICA http://www.scoop.it/t/agriculture-gmos-pesticides/p/1837261743/africa-sold-obama-puts-big-6-chemical-gmo-giants-in-charge-of-ending-hunger-in-africa THE GMO JUGGERNAUT: FULL LIST OF COMPANIES INVOLVED IN G8's MULTI-NATIONAL GMO TAKEOVER: All Powerful Corporations Form Global Cartel to push genetically engineered, biotech food onto the world.

March 8, 2013 - Daily Health Post The FDA’s position on genetically modified foods is that they are totally safe to eat, and pose no risk to the health of consumers. But health-conscious eaters (as well as the entirety of the European Union) have some reservations, and recent studies show that an aversion to GMO foods is not just idle paranoia. In fact, crops and meats that have been genetically modified may have a harmful effect on various organ systems and consumers’ health in general. Read on to find out more.

April 12, 2013 Huffington Post Corporate accountability and transparency should be a business practice that all major companies adopt and implement. If you don't have anything to hide, then why not disclose exactly how you do business? Instead, Big Agriculture is trying to deter an honest depiction of what is really happening. To make it illegal for people to disclose information about the inner workings of your business makes it hard for me to trust the product you are selling. Industrial farms that host tens of thousands of livestock are breeding grounds for disease, so antibiotics are used to protect the animals. But those animal antibiotics are then ingested by humans, which can make human antibiotics less effective. Additionally, sometimes the diseases grow resistant to the antibiotics and persist or mutate. Humans eating these sick animals can get sick themselves, like in the case of salmonella and other food-borne illnesses... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/toni-nagy/why-every-parent-should_b_3064957.html ________________AND NOW WE KNOW WHY ______________ April 13, 2013 The Real News VIDEO

Jan 29, 2013 - Humane Society Agribusiness has introduced anti-whistle-blower or “ag-gag” bills in numerous states aimed at making whistle-blowing on factory farms essentially impossible. Whistle-blowing employees have played a vital role in exposing animal abuse, unsafe working conditions, and environmental problems on industrial factory farms. The agribusiness industry's response to these exposés has not been to prevent the abuses, but rather to try to prevent the American people from finding out about the abuses in the first place. What exactly are anti-whistle-blower bills? http://www.humanesociety.org/issues/campaigns/factory_farming/fact-sheets/ag_gag.html May 14, 2013 Common Dreams
