Genetically Modified Organisms - GMO's
Genetic Engineering - GE
There has never been a more urgent need to understand what you are eating than now, especially if you have children! We have been systematically poisoned to death by agricultural giants Monsanto, Syngenta and DuPont and friends. They are responsible for promoting the growth of genetically modified / engineered crops in South Africa for the past 15 years. Very simply, genetic engineering mixes the DNA of plants and animals to make them bigger or stronger or more resistant to some perceived threat. But long term studies were never done and the modified DNA has started to transfer from mother to child in the womb. Massive environmental destruction, global monopolization and privatization of the world's food supply, patenting plants and seeds, massive crop failures, linked to 29 diseases and conditions in humans now ... this story will not end well for mankind. You need to educate yourself on the GM issue and make a very swift change to organic, local food sources. These global giants have proven that they cannot be trusted and have been lying to us for decades. The only way to stop them, is to stop buying their products with immediate effect. Go organic now!
In South Africa, the African Centre for Biodiversity has been fighting for our rights for years and hardly anyone even knows who they are. We need to support them because they are instrumental in getting changes made at legislative level. Also check out No GMO South Africa on Facebook and my blog for more GMO thoughts.

ACBIO has been instrumental in South Africa in getting the GM to the public and lobbying the government to stop them. They always need help and donations and petitions signed, so please support them whenever you can. These few heros are taking on the giants of government, Monsanto and Syngenta - can you image what they must be going through on behalf of 49 million South Africans...
