pdjmoo's insight:

It seems that the giant global Agrichemical Monsanto cartel now wants to get into and own the biofuel industry.  This cartel includes:  BigFood, BigPharma, BigAg and now... BigOil... A sweeping control over our land, food, environmental and human health.  As demand moves away from traditional fossil fuels you can bet Big Oil wants to get into and control the questionable biofuel trend, promoted by the US Pentagon. Do you want our natural lands polluted with genetically modified organisms, destroying natural biodiversity and saturating the environment with the necesary attending pesticides and chemicals they require adversely impacting both ecosystem and human health?

 

This is what is happening in other parts of the world as the powerful multi-national corporations chase mega profits for control over biofuels and food

RT @ComingFamine

"I think we need to move to an entirely new paradigm about feeding the world, and doing it at the global scale with global strategies," Foley said. "Instead of calling it agriculture, which we've had for 10,000 years, maybe it's time for something new, what I like to call terraculture, or farming for the whole planet."

During the first morning of the GreenBiz Forums, Jon Foley, director of the University of Minnesota's Institute of the Environment, laid out a business plan for the Earth that aims to feed 9 billion people by 2050 while shrinking agriculture's...
