5 thoughts on “Anti-GMO activist logic: Who should you listen to?”

  1. Please would you mind to write about famous Anti GMO activist from Ethiopia. His name is Teweldebrehan. He got some kind of prize as Shiva. And For your information, He taught in Addis Abeba University and Asmara University, Biology. I have no detailed information about his back ground. He got married to his British wife. He lived quite luxury in Ethiopia, driving new car, being respected everywhere he goes. He was able to send his daughter to one Oxford University.

    But the reality, Many of Ethiopians do not have proper meal in a day. This professor and his allies dominated the political, educational sector in Ethiopia. They preach green. But reality Ethiopia is not green. Rather dirty, malnourished people dominated. The skill we learned in the university is more of memorization. I never understood why I have to learn Biology till I got my scholarship in Japan and learned how I can use Biology to have a sustainable life. As I learned in Japan. Japan is green,, and plenty of food. Because scientist are working on it with clear value. Ethiopia is dry and hungry nation, because people like Teweldebrehan are preaching to people with empty stomach. And They are worshiped as angle of Environment. But please ask them if they ever able to plant one tree. Their answer will be philosophy. Nothing practical. I wish if you could do some article facing Africa in general. I will be willing to compile information. Sorry for my poor English. I am tortured in the University. So I do not learn rather I got scared.

  2. There was a time when Hunter-gatherers roamed the African country for food. Now due to the Burgher System of a political or family group controlling a given land to manage and control, the Hunter-gatherers are restricted from Hunting or gathering food in the burg – State. Each State in Africa are controlled by a Corporate State Chartered to its authorities. The lack of food in African States are due to the State’s Burgher System! Its either ‘work for their Corporate Enterprise or starve’.

    • There was a time when the population of Ethiopia was less than it is today, and the population wasn’t growing. Then the evil companies gave them medicines and fed them, the population grew and the hunter gatherers stripped the land of anything edible, and anything combustible to cook it over. So suggest a solution that can work please, then we can all feel warm and fuzzy.

  3. AGENDA 21, through the UN’s Corporate Agriculture giants is being used in many 3rd world countries as to guarantee crop sales. The farmer has to use GMO specified seeds, specific fertilization chemicals, and dangerous bug and bacteria killing chemicals to be guaranteed money for the farmer’s crop. The Ag Corporation makes money on all and squeezes out the little farmer.
