As a child, I dreamed that I would grow up to a world where genetically modified organisms were the key to sustainable agriculture. Plants that eliminated the need for petro fertilizers by enriching the soil like clover and were resistant to disease and insects. Instead I somehow ended up in this Bizarro World, where Dr. Evil runs Monsanto. Where they’ve turned large tracks of fertile land into a barren, sterile wasteland that can only grow their GMO crops.
How can we turn the tide back, so that government serves the people instead of big corporations? You’d think the “corporations are people” would be a wakeup call, right? I’m glad to see there’s still people out there like those at Glowing Plant that see the potential in this technology before the world gets fed up and just bans GMO.
