Green America announced the award of the biggest corporate fool and the winner in Monsanto. The chemical and agricultural giant is most known for adding genetically modified organisms (GMO) into the food supply for U.S. citizens in both the crops and animals that we consume, without short or long term studies on the GMO health effects. Monsanto is also known for Agent Orange, DDT and the spraying of Round-Up as a tactic against drugs. Kind of ironic on the latter.
This giant of a biotech company has such bad practices regarding factory farming that they have forced small farmers to go out of business. The GMO practice is being pushed into the developing world and has resulted in a lock of farmers into the cycles of debt with dependence on the cropping inputs. It is important to note that many other countries around the world have passed laws to any and all GMO foods, food products and any animals fed on GMO’s, out of their countries. In honor of Monsanto being named as the biggest corporate fool in the nation, there was a donation made via the Monsanto CEO’s name, Hugh Grant, to Navdanya. For over two decades, this organization in India works with over five million farmers for the creation of seed and food sovereignties and the goals of sustainable agriculture. They have helped to establish the largest fair trade, organic and direct marketing network in India. Read more|
