This documentary covers a lot of the issues and risks around genetically modified foods. I do not accept that GMO is the source of all allergies and ill health in North America–we have plenty of poor diet and inactivity to share that blame. But I do think it is critical that there be consumer education aided by transparency and clear labeling in this area so that we can make informed decisions on what we ingest. The for-profit food, drug and chemical industries cannot continue to call the shots about public health.
Political comedian Bill Maher weighed in on Monsanto and GMOs on the June 22 2012 episode of Real Time with Bill Maher – panel included Nick Gillespie, Rachel Maddow, Mort Zuckerman & Mark Ruffalo. Here is a direct link.
