This is a mess that cannot be cleaned up
Authored by: complex_number on Thursday, May 30 2013 @ 04:49 PM EDT
And Monsanto and the US GOv wants to sue the UK Gov for not allowing the general
use of GM crops and Beef fed on GM corn on this side of the pond.

The general public opinion is that it is not wanted and that if we know that the
food is GM then people won't buy it.

If this episode becomes a big problem for the US, then I for one will quietly
say, 'there but for the grace of god go we'.

As a Wildlife and Landscape Photographer, I see oil seed rape plants pretty well
everywhere. These are germinating from seed distributed by the wind or birds (or
even some mammals). In the past week I have seen the distinctive yellow blossom
even on the heather moorland of the Welsh Mountains, individual plants are
growing. There is no one on this planet who can tell me that GM crops can't
spread to pretty well everywhere.
How long before the likes on Monsanto sue every landowner in the USA for
unauthorised use of their seed despite it having been distributed by entirely
natural means (Wind/Birds etc)?

IMHO (and clearly being political, sorry) it is clearly time to stop this GM
Madness.
