Nature's Must-Read Special Issue on GMOs

https://drreddyfamilydoctors.com/womans-health/ By now it has become clear, as British environmental writer Mark Lynas said in a speech this week at Cornell University, that controversy over GMOs represents one of the greatest science communications failures of the past half-century.

Can We Take Earth Day Seriously, While Also Mocking It?

https://advogadoemresende.com/audiencia-publica-maes-em-carcere/ As Reuters puts it: If the environmental movement has a high holiday, Earth Day is it. After four decades, the annual celebration of good deeds and eco-awareness in the United States is as meaningful to environmentalists as St. Patrick’s day is to the Irish. Both annual events are green and festive. One is a sanctioned…Continue Reading…

Anecdotal Evidence of Wind Turbine Syndrome

Purchase Xanax Online I was goofing around on Twitter today: I’m pretty sure all da GMOs, flame retardants & WiFi electromagnetic radiation cancel out my wind turbine syndrome. — keith kloor (@keithkloor) April 18, 2013 If you’re unfamiliar with that last reference, I refer you to my recent Slate piece:
