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

A WALL STREET MOM TURNS FOOD EVANGELIST: TED VIDEO 2011

From www.youtube.com - April 16, 2012 7:18 PM

Robyn shares her personal story and how it inspired her current path as a "Real Food" evangelist. Grounded in a successful Wall Street career that was more interested in food as good business than good-for-you, this mother of four was shaken awake by the dangerous allergic reaction of one of her children to a "typical" breakfast. Her mission to unearth the cause revealed more about the food industry than she could stomach, and impelled her to share her findings with others. Informative and inspiring Robyn O'Brien @unhealthytruth

A GAME CHANGER? Crowdsourced Website Documents World's Entire Food System

A GAME CHANGER? Crowdsourced Website Documents World's Entire Food System | Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR, Sustainability, SocioEconomic, Community | Scoop.it
From www.treehugger.com - January 25, 2012 4:33 PM

A new, crowd-sourced website plans to document every angle of the food system. Given its stated aim of documenting "the entire food system", and given that ANYONE can upload photos and tell the story of their food, it seems like there is an opportunity for activists to tell the stories of the industrial food system through this platform too.
