The GM lobby and its 'seven sins against science'

The GM lobby and its 'seven sins against science' | Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR, Sustainability, SocioEconomic, Community | Scoop.it
From www.theecologist.org - January 9, 1:54 AM

31st December 2012 - The Ecologist:

The pro-GM lobby has sought to take the 'scientific high-ground' by positioning itself as the voice of reason and progress, while painting its opponents as unsophisticated 'anti-science' luddites. In a scathing response Peter Melchett turns the tables.

"Powerful forces in Western society have been promoting genetic engineering (now usually genetic modification - GM) in agricultural crops since the mid-1990s...." http://www.theecologist.org/News/news_analysis/1745491/the_gm_lobby_and_its_seven_sins_against_science.html

When Will Environmentalists Ever Wake Up? The Great Pipeline Scam - It's Not Over

When Will Environmentalists Ever Wake Up? The Great Pipeline Scam - It's Not Over | Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR, Sustainability, SocioEconomic, Community | Scoop.it
From pej.org - January 21, 2012 2:45 AM

In another ridiculous moment of political trickery, Obama managed to dupe a major chunk of the American environmental movement yesterday by refusing to authorize the construction of the Keystone Pipeline now. The keyword in that sentence which seems like it is being largely ignored by the enviros is now, because what Obama did do is leave open the possibility of authorizing the construction of a pipeline any time in the future, say just after the election?

And not that it matters much, as pipeline or not Tar Sands are already being refined all across the United States in increasing amounts. This great victory being celebrated by 350.org, Bill Mckibben and the no carbon crusaders out there is a complete farce to manipulate voters as we head into the latest corporate sponsored election.
