Genetically Engineered Trees - The Increasing Threat / Documentary Video

[davemaker]

We are killing our own planet real talk !!

[raaaaaarr]

oh god should I watch this or not.... I think it might tear me up inside

[ANGIEonaMISSION]

That's awful!!! So much greed!!! Taking away and forcing out what our mother earth easily gifts us with!!! Tears in my eyes ... people who even thinking of this process are evil, down on the list amongst many others that are trying to poison our nature's system, and make it disappear, before it's Own natural time ...

[mkhanLu]

GMO tress because of paper!

Come on! honestly how many of u have witnessed the abundant amount of paper being wasted in universities, colleges and offices:@ and those stupid free magazines that nobody reads!:@

[mumonthemove]

@mkhanLu Its as stupid as the argument that they need GMos to feed the world !!!! arrrgghhh stupidity rules !

[J0nathan12356]

this is some evil ass shit... no repercussions are taken into consideration besides extra cash in pocket.

[doda26]

I certainly hope that someone can put a stop to this very soon!

[Simp44]

Seriously WTF is wrong with us. Most of us are complacent & the ones pushing this insanity are just freaking evil

[deol22g]

i have some land and i want to leave it after growin trees on it..and i want to live nearby in a hut without any money.i just want to grow vegies and wheat for my self and my family is there any other way to keep the pests away coz i dont want to use chemicals.........

?????????????????

[myndy86]

@deol22g One strategy is to find native plants that naturally contain chemicals that repel insects, etc. and interplant them with your crop. Then plant a small patch of plants nearby that excrete a sticky gum which attract and trap insects. So, the insect repelling plants "push" away the insects towards the sticky gum plants which "pull" them in and trap them. Which is why the technique is commonly called the "push-pull" strategy. You can research native plants in your area that fit this.

People, start up gmo free facebook pages in your area. If you live in say placer county, make your page GMO free placer county or just do the state. We need to utilize the social networks that are currently available to us.

[mungsteen]

Sic. And to think this is only one piece of the larger geoengineering picture. Where and when will it all end? We need to make bigger noises on all these issues , speak up ,speak out, write your gov. (even if it seems futile) We have the power in our hands by the choices we make, Complaining alone isn`t going to do Squat. Stop being a docile slave and trading off convenience for life and freedom. Man being man, will follow the path of least resistance , even to their own detriment.

[TopAce777]

As if all the other GMO's weren't bad enough....now this

[angelbe88]

There is a bio-tech co. here in Kauai called Syngenta. They are growing GMO wheat and who's know what else.

[MrBuckwilliam]

our home, planet earth will soon be as comfy as mars O_O

where have all the flowers gone?

[dbootsthediva]

Quite an eye opener of what they are doing to our planet without knowing the long term or even the short term health risks to the population as a whole nor the short term health risks to other plants and animals Thank you for uploading this documentary

[xlla]

I think I already added this to my Favorites?

OH-well! I will add it again!!!!

Love it,.. great Vid!!

[rosaryfilms]

@xlla - thank you very much for watching!

[oldwarhorse1865]

I just read an article by the Institute of Science in Society. So they know this causes birth defects, death, and increases the use of roundup! So why in the hell is this still going on? I write to those bastards in DC almost daily about this and never get a response! Maybe it's time to spray congress with that and rid our country of these parasites!

[GrAdeAjAmAicAn]

the USPTO needs to revise their policy on the ability for a company (or individual for that matter) to patent genes. It is absurd to think that just because a scientist in the labs of one of the companies can decide to introduce a gene into a different species and be granted ownership especially when the organism replicates. Genes naturally occur in nature and these labs aren't creating anything new and are destroying lives and livelihood. F*ck You Mansanto

[MrsD7777]

EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!

(GMO) = ("Inventers of EVIL things") GOD ordered: ("Hurt NOT the Earth")

MANKIND WILL NEVER BE GOD!!!

CONTROL of NATURE = TOTAL DESTRUCTION!!!

GREED = DEATH!!!

@steam0001 If the studies which suggest deforestation and other ecological damage increases malaria, are correct and the studies which suggest DDT harms the environment, are correct. Then the use of DDT for malaria control would be counterproductive.

[myndy86]

@steam001 An agricultural DDT ban was not implemented in most african countries such as Kenya, until the 1990s. Even then most countries never banned DDT use for vector control. The idea that a DDT ban killed millions of africans has been disputed by many reputable, unbiased scientists. Most of those promoting the DDT ban idea, such as Steve Milloy of junkscience, have been linked to Monsanto.

[myndy86]

Studies from kenya, brazil and peru suggest that deforestation of native trees increased malaria breeding sites by 77% increased malaria 50% and increased biting of mosquitoes by 294 times. Other studies suggest the introduction of invasive trees and animals also contributed to increases in malaria. These studies and others suggest ecological damage, contributed to malaria deaths in africa and elsewhere.

[myndy86]

@steam0001 "Spraying DDT on interior walls of houses- the form of chemical use advocated as the solution to Africa`s malaria problem- led to the evolution of resistance 40 years ago"

[myndy86]

@steam0001 "What people aren`t remembering about the history of DDT is that, in many places, it failed to eradicate malaria not because of environmentalist restrictions on its use but because it simply stopped working"

[myndy86]

@steam0001 May Berenbaum head of entomology dept. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign "By 1972 when the U.S. DDT ban wernt into effect, 19 species of mosquitoes capable of transmitting malaria including some in Africa, were resistant to DDT"

[conglomerate8]

This is ridiculous science. This is just like what Pharisees did to Torah. They started to invent their own "role of laws" corrupting the commands of God, just like the way these scientists are corrupting these crops.

[IceManLikeGervin]

@conglomerate8

Exactly!! Couldn't have said it better myself.

[MoonLitPassage]

Wow this is quite scary, thank you so much for sharing this video with us.

[rosaryfilms]

@MoonLitPassage - you are very welcomed!

[steam0001]

I totally agree that life should not be for sale. The spread of the sterility gene through pollination is particularly disturbing. Farmers must be able to replant with their own seed without beholding to any corporation. Engineered  properties that make trees good for paper would likely make them bad for lumber. The spread of these genes to lumber trees can also be a concern.

On the other side they mention in passing G.W. & DDT. The complete ban of DDT lead to million of deaths in Africa do to-

[steam0001]

miliaria. Human caused global warming has been proven to be not a major concern. You could double the CO2 in the air & you might get about 1 deg. C difference(2 deg. F). Caution & discernment of what actions to take or not take very important & must be applied equally to were both the environment & people are concerned.

[godrodemyscooter]

wow finally something mildly interesting

[rosaryfilms]

@godrodemyscooter - thanks!

[romeoracz]

Genetic optimization is great and will be the best improvement that technology can bring to humankind. It's funny how we talk about not doing something which can decrease our DAMAGING influence on the environment while we kill others for resources. Go SCIENCE !

[spanishpothead]

iam 13 min into this , thanks for the upload rosaryfilms

thers so many documentarys about global warming , the oil spill frome bp

i onestly think we will destroy our planet unless something radical is done

[rosaryfilms]

@spanishpothead - thank you for your comments!

[IronicallyVague]

Now I see why in news reports people were willing to kill over these enviromental issues, I remember how the media portrayed those concerned as tree hugging flakes when the truth is they are playing around with the very fabric of life itself.

[RememberPaulRevere]

USDA Tom Vilsack was a former Monsanto advocate....we are truly in trouble people....this evil knows now bounds against God or Nature!

[RememberPaulRevere]

Agricultural economist Bruce McCarl of Texas A&M told a House Agriculture subcommittee on Dec 3 that if carbon offsets are not widely available, “the market would likely be restricted to increased demand for biofuel and bioelectricity feedstocks.”

[RememberPaulRevere]

Up to 59 million acres of pasture and cropland could be converted to woodland by 2050 under a cap-and-trade system, according to the Agriculture Department analysis. Trees, to control greenhouse gases, would be more lucrative than crops.

As an example, Vilsack pointed to a Nov 11 report by a University of Tennessee think tank that bioenergy crops could blossom under a cap-and-trade system and would not shift cropland to forests.
