Yes, geek...

The embrace of un-science by the Teapublicans is standing in the way of progress on way too many fronts...

Climate deniers top my list... Now that what the real scientists predicted would happen is coming to fruition the deniers have changed their mythology to blaming it on cycles...

But back to GMOs... What we need is a NIH study of the effects of GMOs on animals... That would be a good start... I was going to suggest either the FDA or USDA but fear they have been infiltrated, like the EPA, with too many right wing ideologues who would make sure the study was screwed up...

But my concerns don't stop at just the possible ill effects of GMOs on our physiology but the other concerns I have with GMOs and Monsanto such as how Monsanto is using the courts to bust on mom 'n pop farmers... There needs to be more journalistic investigation and reporting on that aspect... Also, the negative effects on out environment... I am already concerned about the way that agri-business farms... Way too many chemicals and way too much run off...

Run off is polluting our water and killing our fish... The use of GMOs is contributing to this directly because with crops that are resistant to pesticides and herbicides these chemicals are increasingly in our streams, ponds, lakes, bays and oceans... Where is the study on that effect???

Yeah, the real scientists are still locked out as the fake ones get all the media time...

That needs to change...
