A Rebuttal

https://jesszimlich.com/exhaling/ The cover story in the April issue of Discover is about the anti-GMO movement in Europe. I found it interesting but also narrowly centered on the opposition in Germany. For example, the piece neglects to discuss, much less mention, a widely publicized event last summer involving a UK government sponsored research lab. This featured UK scientists mounting… Continue Reading…

The Propaganda Mill

Since I’m always on the lookout for helpful advice on how to talk to my friends about GMOs, this tweet caught my eye: Via @foodmythbusters: 7 Things To Tell Your Friends About GMO’s bit.ly/XHYD8G — Danielle Nierenberg (@DaniNierenberg) March 7, 2013 In her bio at the Worldwatch Institute, Nierenberg is listed as “an expert on… https://nelsonfenceco.com/pet-fencing/ Continue Reading…

Why Facts Don't Matter

Zolpidem Buy Online In a perfect world, every conversation we have about childhood vaccines, GMOs, alternative medicine, and global warming would be based on a set of facts agreed on by a majority of scientists working in those spheres. But we don’t live in a perfect world, so many conversations on the aforementioned subjects are often driven by… https://twofunnelsaway.com/carrd/ Continue Reading…

How to Judge the Merits of the Keystone Pipeline Fight

Does it matter if a social movement hitches its wagon to the wrong horse? For the food movement and its embrace of the GMO labeling cause, I argued yes in Slate, because it is predicated on junk science and blind, simplistic mistrust of multinational corporations…The pro-labeling camp wants people to believe that eating “frankenfood” is dangerous… https://www.taprackholsters.com/le-military/ Continue Reading…

Foodies Find Common Cause with Anti-Abortion Activists

https://ontopdownunderreviews.com/about-kazza/ What happens when the ideological agenda of crunchy granola food activists intersects with the religious agenda of anti-abortion activists?  You get this (recycled, bizarro) nonsense from a Seattle-based organic food advocacy website: Biotech companies have been using aborted human fetal cells for testing the effectiveness of different flavoring agent in their products. Last year the news came out… https://www.sharenergy.com.br/servicos/ Continue Reading…

Organic Food Causes Autism and Diabetes

That is the wickedly clever title of a post by Kevin Folta, a plant geneticist at the University of Florida, in Gainsville. To make his point, Folta, as he says on twitter, uses logic “borrowed from the anti-GMO crowd.” That would be logic like this: Is it a coincidence that autism has risen since GMOs have… Ambien Buy Online Continue Reading…

Why GMOs Are Great and Why They Should be Labeled

Earlier this week, I was dismissive of the GMO labeling movement in a way that didn’t do justice to its core concerns. I wrote: Like climate change, the crazy politics of the GMO debate trump the science. Along those lines, I view the “right to know” campaign (which is part of a larger effort to label… Buy Zopiclone 7.5 Mg Online Continue Reading…

Teaching the Controversy

Buy Lyrica Without Prescription When it comes to evolution, no reputable museum would dare “teach the controversy,” a catchphrase used as a ploy by creationists some years back, when they tried to put “intelligent design” on an equal scientific footing with evolutionary biology. The biotech issue, which is a source of much controversy in environmental and food circles, is… Continue Reading…

The GMO Penis Connection

One of the main impediments to rational discussion of biotechnology is fear-mongering by anti-GMO zealots. The most outlandish claims (cancer! birth defects!) are couched in science and often peddled by activists like Jeffrey Smith, who is given the opportunity to air his baseless assertions to nationally syndicated TV audiences (on multiple occasions), courtesy of the popular but… Continue Reading…

The Knotty Biotech Issue

The recent speech that Mark Lynas gave fleshing out his evolution on environmental issues–specifically his conversion on GMOs–continues to ricochet around the web. It’s a compelling story. If you’re just catching up, here’s a quick recap from Andy Revkin: The arc of Lynas’s fascinating career is in some ways neatly encapsulated by two acts at…Continue Reading…
