ENCORE: The GMO Threat, Part 1
Podcast |
---|
Rampant genetic modification technology poses an existential threat to planet earth and the human race, according to consumer activist Jeffrey M. Smith, author of "Seeds of Deception: Exposing Industry and Government Lies About the Safety of the Genetically Engineered Foods You're Eating" and "Genetic Roulette: The Gamble of Our Lives." His latest initiative goes beyond glyphosate and Roundup-ready crops; he’s now taking aim at the ill-advised technology that threatens to introduce genetically-modified organisms into our ecosystems, threatening widespread disruption of nature. Altered viruses, bacteria, insects, crops, and fish like the GMO salmon are being developed without regard to the potentially dire consequences. The probable origin of the coronavirus via gain-of-function research highlights the hazards of inadvertent release. Industry has poured dark money into influencing scientists, medical journals, politicians, websites, and the media to downplay the hazards they pose. Smith is spearheading an initiative to get consumers to buy organic, but also to urge legislators to enact regulations to roll back hacking of normal biological evolution.
