GM Crops Climb to Nearly One-Tenth of Global Crop Production

Genetically Modified crops have risen to the level of nine percent of world crops, warned the Worldwatch Institute today (www.WorldWatch.org).

Tensions are rising over the GM foods issue as consumers become increasingly educated about the sharp increases in infertility resulting from the consumption of GM foods.

A popular book, Genetic Roulette by Jeffrey Smith, is also raising literacy about genetically modified foods and the threats they pose to sustainable life on our planet.

It’s more than just a health threat, of course: GM foods also pose a threat to the environment, polluting the fertile soils of the world with unnatural genetic material that may have unknown long-term consequences. Cross-pollination with non-GM crops, monoculture practices and the liberal use of chemical pesticides alongside GM crops are just a few of the serious threats to sustainable life on Earth posed by food scientists playing God with seeds.

Activists are increasingly suggesting that the infertility side effects of GM foods are not coincidental and are, instead, part of a genocidal plan by powerful elitists who want the human population to shrink by 80 percent and are willing to destroy human fertility in order to accomplish it. “Let ‘em eat their way to population control!”

Although I don’t have any solid evidence to prove such a sinister plan actually exists, I’m greatly concerned about GM crops anyway. Despite the population control conspiracy agenda, GM crops are dangerous even if they’re just a big, arrogant mistake by corporate-funded scientists.

These foods are bad for you. They’re dangerous for human consumption and they could lead to a runaway agricultural blight that causes mass global starvation. Never play God with Mother Nature unless you’re begging to be made extinct.

I highly recommend the Seeds of Deception videos there, too.

GM Crops Climb to Nearly One-Tenth of Global Crop Production

From Worldwatch.org: Genetically modified crops reached 9 percent of global primary crop production in 2007, bringing the total GM land area up to 114.3 million hectares, according to Worldwatch Institute estimates published in the latest Vital Signs Update. The United States continues to be the global leader in production, accounting for half of all GM crop area…. more

   Genetic foods are created for one reason: So that the patent holder has exclusive rights to the product and can increase their profits.

   Just one more instance of our elite wealth-controllers willingly sacrificing our well-being for their profit and power.

   Are you willing to be a part of the generation that allowed these people to plunge our societies into a new dark age? Or would you rather have your great grandchildren read about how we defeated these degenerate criminals?

   All we need to do to unseat our rulers is stop using their money. When we switch to an alternative currency their system will fall. The central banks will dissolve and their political actors will be out of a job.

   The main reason for GM crops are to take total control over the worlds food supply. Control the food and you control the world.
   imagine in about 5-10 years when Monsanto has enslaved the entire worlds crops. A country opposes the US over…lets say their oil…Monsanto stops delivering their chemicals or terminator/traitor seeds…the crops die and then the people.

   Its the biggest threat to humanity and the world…

   PLEASE, read F William Engdahls book Seeds of destruction!

   This was a great article. Also enjoyed the comments and their insights. Genetically modified crops should be outlawed as they could very well devastate life on earth and cause untold suffering. I’ve also wondered if the “bee crisis” was linked to poisonous GMO crops. “See how wicked people think up evil; they plan trouble and practice deception. But in the traps they set for others, the themselves get caught. So they are punished by their own evil and are hurt by their own violence.” (Psalms 7:14-16)
