It is interesting that eating organic did lower pesticide levels in the body.

Here's an interesting article.

The title is misleading. What is actually said is that, " ... 19 new countries joining an already long list of nations to completely ban, or have severe restrictions on, GMOs — as well as the pesticides that go with them."

Which countries are those banning them, restricting them or putting them on hold? I don't see them listed.

Also "the spirit science" is a dubious, at best source. Today they are promoting bleach enemas to "cure autism". You know, because of all the toxins in vaccines and because bleach is harmless natural love?

That link didn't work, sparty - can you fix? I'm fortunately not autistic but am nonetheless overcome with a desire to look into any possible other benefits of a bleach enema ... 😀

They may have pulled it because the backlash was intense.

The WHO just listed bacon, ham, salami etc as a CLASS 1 carcinogen. Meaning it DOES cause cancer. Much different from the class 2 of Glyphosate. I'm sure everyone will be calling for bacon to be banned now right?

What a hoo-hah. Deja vu all over again. Shakespeare wrote something about there being excess in moderation but let's be sensible.

"The North American Meat Institute (NAMI) said the report defied 'both common sense and dozens of studies showing no correlation between meat and cancer'.
'Red and processed meat are among 940 substances reviewed by International Agency for Research (IARC) on found to pose some level of theoretical 'hazard",' said Barry Carpenter, president of NAMI.
'IARC says you can enjoy your yoga class, but don’t breathe air (Class I carcinogen), sit near a sun-filled window (Class I), drink wine or coffee (Class I and Class 2A,), eat grilled food (Class 2A), or apply aloe vera (Class 2B).
'Risks and benefits must be considered together before telling people what to eat, drink, drive, breathe, or where to work.
'"

Exactly.

I can answer this without even looking at a collective evolution site that also promotes anti vaccine nonsense and NWO and chemtrail stuff.. The difference is.. Wait for it.

Well, this ought to be interesting!

Monsanto on Trial for Crimes Against Humanity and Nature

Read more: http://www.care2.com/greenliving/monsanto-on-trial-for-crimes-against-humanity-and-nature.html#ixzz3tT8nk4ap
Excerpt:

"As part of the announcement Andre Leu, president of IFOAM boldly stated: “Monsanto is able to ignore the human and environmental damage caused by its products and maintain its devastating activities through a strategy of systemic concealment: by lobbying regulatory agencies and governments, by resorting to lying and corruption, by financing fraudulent scientific studies, by pressuring independent scientists, and by manipulating the press and media.”

I was only joking when I said Kangaroo Court. Apparently it really is a Kangaroo Court. It is not even a real court with any jurisdiction. Lololololol. They put "The Hague" in it like it matters. Not the same Hague court. Ridiculous waste of time again

Childhood Exposure to Pesticides Linked to Lung Disease

A long-term study finds that children of farmworkers have decreased lung function, making them vulnerable to pulmonary disorders.

No response to the idea of Monsanto being on trial is an ACTUAL Kangaroo Court with no legal jurisdiction?

I don't know why you continue to believe having pesticides in our air, earth, water and food supply is a good thing. Monsanto's tactics of "owning" seeds, clearing rain forests for soy and corn, not having crop diversity, using toxic chemicals and making billions while harming the environment and people should be held accountable.
Is it a kangaroo court? We'll see.

It is the very definition. There is no legal standing of this "court". Monsanto does not plow rainforest. Farmers do. They may grow seeds supplied by Monsanto but that is a ludicrous accusation. Many companies patent seeds, this isn't a Monsanto thing. Organic growers use pesticides too. Why do you keep believing we can grow enough food for 7 billion people without pesticides? Do you enjoy the idea of rampant insect borne illnesses? Roundup Ready corn has decreased overall pesticide use by 37%, increased yields by 23% and increased farmer profit by 65%.
