MONSANTO EXPOSED

monsantodvdsud5.jpgmore (knowing what's in our food supply)

If you've seen the excellent documentary, The Future of Food, or are a member of the Organic Consumers Association, then you've heard of Monsanto.

Monsanto is a huge company and the maker of herbicides and the engineer and peddler of genetically modified seeds.  Roundup Ready soybeans are genetically modified to resist the very herbicides Monsanto sprays, those sprays being the kinds of chemicals that are toxic not just to weeds but to you and me and especially farmers.

Now, there's a film on DVD that explores what Monsanto has done, how, and how it's gotten away with it.  There's some pretty shocking stuff in here about what goes wrong when profit is the driving force of agriculture.  And, no it's nut a summer fluff film, but at least it's fodder for changing fall harvests.
