Today's post is a video of an investigative film that documents some very disturbing information regarding the activities of one of the worlds largest international mega corporations. Monsanto has a long history of being controversial, including a track record of covering up and lying about known safety hazards related to their products. In recent years they have been pioneers in the bio-engineering field, and are heavily involved in the trend towards GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) in the food supply. This video highlights much of the company's sordid past, as well as some of the dangers, known and unknown, of their current business interests centered around the development and sale of GMOs.
There is much to be alarmed about in this report, but one of the most upsetting factors involves a governmental, legal, and civil system that protects a corporation such as Monsanto rather than being an advocate for the health and safety of the public. Under such conditions, lying about the hazards of the products a company produces becomes a good business decision simply because the amount of money that can be made far outweighs any penalties that may be assessed if they are caught. This has led to the destruction of many lives in the past, and will continue to enable such shameful activities by companies like Monsanto until this travesty of justice is remedied.
Education is our most powerful tool when it comes to exposing the parties involved in such corruption, so I hope you will take the time to watch this video in its entirety, and share it with as many people as possible. The integrity of the food supply for future generations is at stake.
