8:49 fun fact the most environmentally damaging farm is the organic farm because of the fertilizer run off, it also has the least amount of yield, and it is the most expensive way to farm. if you want organic food i would say grow it in your garden and not on a large farm, that way its easier to take care, it will have less polluted run off, and the satisfaction of growing it your self is awesome (warning just because you grew a few over grown grass doesnt mean you can say your superior)

If people don't want their kids to starve to death, they shouldn't make more kids than they can provide for.
"Boo hoo hoo. My 10 kids are starving to death because I can only afford to take care of ONE child, and I don't like using condoms. And I love them too much to give them up for adoption to a couple who CAN take proper care of them."
@SinnFein4ever Most people who have all those kids can't afford condoms, you spoiled fuck. Furthermore, they have so many because they work in agriculture and NEED workers. Many of them live in patriarchal cultures where marital rape is the norm, and where the woman is then expected to provide the food for the children. It's not that easy, and your ancestors did the same damn thing. Just because you'reborn privileged and educated doesn't mean you can expect people without to behave perfectly.
Norman Borlaug is without a doubt one of the greatest human beings of all time (no doubt could claim the mantle of first). If I could make a new law it would outlaw organic food.

@MrKaozKaoz She is right! We already do not have a choice, 11% of organic farms tested had GM contamination! Places like the EU with GM labels on food have an "acceptable level of contamination" for foods without the GM label because most foods have at least some level of GM contamination. Penn and Teller are magicians, they get paid to trick you so their rich Cato Institute buddies can profit from GM!
@myndy86 I don't know for sure how things are in America, but I know one thing, if you know no hunger then you ALWAYS have a choice, you can buy in other places, get your veggies form the farmers yourself if you worry too much for the whole genetic thing, or cultivate them yourself, or eat meat, in the end it is YOUR choice, as I said, anyone can choose not to eat, poor people have less choices, and bigger worries than genetically altered food.
@MrKaozKaoz It's not just the U.S. you have NO CHOICE even if you :"get your veggies form the farmers yourself" or "cultivate them yourself" because there is GM CNTAMINATION! So, my choice has been taken away!

The detection of GM DNA in milk can be interpreted as an indicator of fecal or airborne contamination, respectively, with feed DNA or feed particles" ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16373205
@MrKaozKaoz As you can see there are many studies that find contamination not just in the U.S., I posted studies in Mexico and the EU as well and I can post studies from China, India, Japan, etc. also. GM foods actually INCREASE starvation in poor countries! Government subsides on GM crops in countries like the U.S., create an artificially low price for crops that poor countries can not compete with. So, GM crops are one of the reasons POOR PEOPLE STARVE!
@MrKaozKaoz Most GM crops aren't "food crops"! Varieties of Bt corn are mostly used for ethanol production, cattle feed and corn syrup, etc. Cotton and Canola varieties are primarily used for oils, Sugar beets used for sugar, etc. Most GM crops are "food additive crops", they don't reduce starvation in poor countries anymore than table salt reduces starvation in poor countries. What poor need is organic, which costs less to produce, sells for more and reduces hunger & poverty.

I have a solution for poorness, over population AND hunger... CANNIBALISM, poor people eating poor people =D... nah but seriously, it is not about there is too much people, it is because the distribution of wealth is so uneven, I know cause in the big cities we throw away TONS of "good" food, I'm pretty sure those Africans wouldn't mind to have some half eaten turkey breast XD
What Penn and Teller never acknowledge is human population. All the problems of the world, and particularly hunger, are caused by TOO MANY FUCKING HOMOSAPIENS. The one and only goal I want to see humanity pursue is decreasing the population. With less people you need less food. Less food means more free land. More free land means happier people and animals.
If you genetically make more food, then you just get even more people, and in no time that food isn't enough, and there's no room to live.
@MiniMackeroni That;s what we do with deer, wolves, foxes, etc to save them from wrecking their own environment and dying off from overpopulation. That's what keeps mice, rats, rabbits, etc at a healthy level in nature because predators eat them. Humans fuck just as much as other animals, and thus need population control just as much as other animals.
Or condoms/birth control, except that people are too stupid to use those and just keep cranking out the babies...
@Chupacabrathe2nd Can you provide evidence for this?

P&T you idiots, there can be enough food to feed everyone and there is but some people are denied food by war and famine, GMO crops are designed so that only a few large corporations can control the food supply. Also they are designed to work with whatever companies pesticides. GMO isn't the same as breeding plants it means more than producing more food, it's a way to destroy competition as companies like Monsanto run over any small farmers in the way. P&T are bullshit its thier job.

It's a tragedy the genius of Norman Borlaug barely (if ever) gets a mention here in North America. I have no idea why. The guy sounded like he was en excellent humanitarian and person. RIP.
I'm with Penn and Teller on this one. In financially well off countries (*coughTheUnitedStatescough*), people need to stop taking the abundance of food we have for granted, be fortunate, let technology press forward for the better. And try to share our gift with less fortunate nations.
So what if we genetically modify food? People have been doing it for thousands of years now. (i.e. The Native Americans bred Corn from a GRASS several hundred years ago). As long as there's no adverse health effects (which their won't be), we'll be fine. I am for organic food, but that's because of all the harmful pesticides and the like farmers have been using the past century. Maybe if we can modify crops to grow in an environment where they can thrive we won't even have to do that anymore.
@galaxywarper92 GMO is not selective, cross breeding."definitions are used by agencies that regulate genetically modified organisms (GMO's).""under guidelines issued by USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, genetic engineering is defined as the genetic modification of organisms by recombinant DNA techniques (7CFR340: 340.1).""Recombinant DNA techniques (DNA formed by combining segments of DNA from different organisms)" ers.usda.gov/briefing/biotechnology/glossary.htm
@galaxywarper92 The 2 most common and most used varieties of GM crops were designed to be sprayed with synthetic herbicides or produce their own pesticide. So, if you are for organic, "because of all the harmful pesticides and the like farmers have been using", then you should be against the huge majority of GM crops as well. Because of what the huge majority of GM crops were designed for, it's not surprising studies suggest there is adverse health affects in GM fed animals.

6:37 Well, Mr. Harris, you and your associates are certainly within your rights to believe that. It's an evil, elitist and frankly myopic belief that stands to kill billions if it were ever brought to fruition; not only would countless people in the third world die slowly but millions of people in your own home land, for whom the difference between eating and starvation is but a few dollars would suffer as well as farm yields are reduced by two thirds, but you're welcome to hold your beliefs.

@catie1492 I agree with ya because they need all the food they can get also the raw foodies/ the mother nature are so stupid because tortilla are made by corn being ground up by rocks and yea
@catie1492 Actually there is nothing to risk. What GE is in simple tems is: Taking a high yield seed, and multiplying it so every Corn it produces is now the exact same corn. There are no risks in GE meat either,because it's basically the same thing, taking the best pork meat and multiplying it. In this way there is no labor lost in growing a low yielding crop or lightwight pigs. What organic dorks want you to believe is not what science is all about. GE is the way of the future.
@UltraSkid There are no GE crops that are currently commercially available that were designed to be high yielding. The two most available and most used GE crops were designed to be either herbicide tolerant or to produce their own pesticide. There are numerous risks involved with GE crops and many of those risks have already become a reality. For example, billions of dollars in economic losses have already occurred from GE contamination, herbicide tolerant weeds, etc.

they are aginst organic food but they eat potatoes and orange carrots, potatoes were toxic and it took 10 years during the 19th century to make them proper to eat. carrots are originally white, this is a dutch guy who mixed caroots with radish and other radish like roots to progressivle change the color , and this only to please the queen. now everybody around the world eat orange carrots except chinese and japanese who still eat white ones

You know what was ecologic disaster? One that happened? When people started farming. And planting crops. And drastically changing drastically their environment. If we wouldn't have done that human race wouldn't be here, Mister Greenpeace.
@Waine999 Wait, did you just say "people started farming. And planting crops.", "If we wouldn't have done that human race wouldn't be here". Are you saying people started farming and planting crops before the human race even existed?
Guys, chill out. That guy's a dickbag, but there's nothing wrong with a raw food diet when done correctly. Often the cooking process that makes foods more easily digestible (and was helpful in human evolution) does break down viable nutrients, and rawism is an interesting perspective to approach the food conundrum. A roomful of smug and smelly assholes doesn't invalidate a person's individual dietary choices.
Note: I am not a rawist. I personally think it's insane. But that's my choice.
those raw eat dude need to get back to 70s.. and ofcourse you can eat vegetables raw no big mystery in that but still some need cooking because they are full of bullshit

8:49 fun fact the most environmentally damaging farm is the organic farm because of the fertilizer run off, it also has the least amount of yield, and it is the most expensive way to farm. if you want organic food i would say grow it in your garden and not on a large farm, that way its easier to take care, it will have less polluted run off, and the satisfaction of growing it your self is awesome (warning just because you grew a few over grown grass doesnt mean you can say your superior)

What Penn and Teller never acknowledge is human population. All the problems of the world, and particularly hunger, are caused by TOO MANY FUCKING HOMOSAPIENS. The one and only goal I want to see humanity pursue is decreasing the population. With less people you need less food. Less food means more free land. More free land means happier people and animals.
If you genetically make more food, then you just get even more people, and in no time that food isn't enough, and there's no room to live.

The huge majority of anthropologists believe that bigger brains occurred with Home erectus about 1.8 million years ago, and other than the accidental fire that burned some food, the huge majority of anthropologists believe cooking didn't really occur until about 250,000 years. Do you have evidence that suggests the huge majority of anthropologists are wrong and cooking consistently occurred about 1.5 million years earlier?

It's a tragedy the genius of Norman Borlaug barely (if ever) gets a mention here in North America. I have no idea why. The guy sounded like he was en excellent humanitarian and person. RIP.
I'm with Penn and Teller on this one. In financially well off countries (*coughTheUnitedStatescough*), people need to stop taking the abundance of food we have for granted, be fortunate, let technology press forward for the better. And try to share our gift with less fortunate nations.

So what if we genetically modify food? People have been doing it for thousands of years now. (i.e. The Native Americans bred Corn from a GRASS several hundred years ago). As long as there's no adverse health effects (which their won't be), we'll be fine. I am for organic food, but that's because of all the harmful pesticides and the like farmers have been using the past century. Maybe if we can modify crops to grow in an environment where they can thrive we won't even have to do that anymore.

@galaxywarper92 The 2 most common and most used varieties of GM crops were designed to be sprayed with synthetic herbicides or produce their own pesticide. So, if you are for organic, "because of all the harmful pesticides and the like farmers have been using", then you should be against the huge majority of GM crops as well. Because of what the huge majority of GM crops were designed for, it's not surprising studies suggest there is adverse health affects in GM fed animals.

6:37 Well, Mr. Harris, you and your associates are certainly within your rights to believe that. It's an evil, elitist and frankly myopic belief that stands to kill billions if it were ever brought to fruition; not only would countless people in the third world die slowly but millions of people in your own home land, for whom the difference between eating and starvation is but a few dollars would suffer as well as farm yields are reduced by two thirds, but you're welcome to hold your beliefs.

catie1492 2 months ago
@catie1492 Actually there is nothing to risk. What GE is in simple tems is: Taking a high yield seed, and multiplying it so every Corn it produces is now the exact same corn. There are no risks in GE meat either,because it's basically the same thing, taking the best pork meat and multiplying it. In this way there is no labor lost in growing a low yielding crop or lightwight pigs. What organic dorks want you to believe is not what science is all about. GE is the way of the future.
UltraSkid 2 months ago in playlist Penn & Teller: Bullshit! Season 1
@UltraSkid There are no GE crops that are currently commercially available that were designed to be high yielding. The two most available and most used GE crops were designed to be either herbicide tolerant or to produce their own pesticide. There are numerous risks involved with GE crops and many of those risks have already become a reality. For example, billions of dollars in economic losses have already occurred from GE contamination, herbicide tolerant weeds, etc.

Guys, chill out. That guy's a dickbag, but there's nothing wrong with a raw food diet when done correctly. Often the cooking process that makes foods more easily digestible (and was helpful in human evolution) does break down viable nutrients, and rawism is an interesting perspective to approach the food conundrum. A roomful of smug and smelly assholes doesn't invalidate a person's individual dietary choices.
Note: I am not a rawist. I personally think it's insane. But that's my choice.
