this is monsanto's computer voice propaganda program...

[travb35]

if it was illegal to grow food non-organically everything would change for the better in no time - we'd all be able to afford a fully organic healthy diet! Right now organic food is just too damn expensive.

OMG that girl is hot, ummm what was my point???

OH YEAH!! fuck GMO, organic all the way.

It's all about good advertising. I was at the public library 2 weeks ago and they had an exhibit of poster ads from 60 yrs ago promoting cigarettes. Doctors were endorsing menthol cigarettes claiming it can cure sore throat and lung infections. I'm sure people believed them. After all, why would doctors mess with your health. LOL

[JacobBecomesIsrael2]

"Pesticides have never been shown to cause illness" LOL. Right. Now I've heard everything.

[TeamKickTheFat]

"there is nothing better about natural" hahahahaha that made me laugh.

[TeamKickTheFat]

@travb35 too expensive for your health? I guess expensive is a relative term but how much value do people truly put on their health

[QuipHop]

This is propaganda... Wow! Boooooo!!!

[living4heaven]

What is with the computer voice? I call bull crap.

[Charley151]

This video is complete bullshit

[mrjoeymu]

@TheWordPlay1 Precisely stated! Right on!

[tdrule]

Oh Brother! Scam is right...this video being one!

[godsbluehills]

lol, way to beat the "nature can be bad" thing to death. The only thing bad about organic that you cited was bacteria in manure fertilizer, which must be aged long enough to mitigate bacteria. Manure isn't even required to grow organically. Due to your amateur lack of research, you have an over-simplified view of organic that you pulled out of your fertilizer maker. How would you rate conventionally grown food that was grown using manure by farmers who can't afford petro-fertilizers anymore?

Any video that can make a broad clanket statement like "Pesticides have never been shown to cause illness," Is clearly only hoping to fool people with their head so far up their but that thy can't even smell the BS as they eat it, from3:40-3:50. This is blatant full of blatant lies and half truths. I seriously empathize the fool that buys into this Monsanto propraganda.

[cerise333]

How about you read a bit more about pesticides before posting videos like these? also people will keep buying the cheaper food, nobody really cares that much about organic unless it is cheap or at a "good" price, for example if some non organic food costs 3 dollars and the organic one costs 3.50 people will buy it because eventhough it's more expensive it's not too expensive. But if the organic one costs 4 or 5 or 6 dollars people would not buy it, because it'd still boutsidetheirposibilities

[cerise333]

Uhm I really don't get this video, this is sort of stupid, you only talk about how "there is nothing inherently better about NATURAL" yet you never talk about the NON NATURAL and how bad it REALLY is... gee how stupid. Hormones are pretty bad and you obviously haven't really read much about this subject. There are a lot of random things you talk about as "facts" that are really just opinions in all actuality, your whole video looks like an opinion video, rather than based on scientific study.

@tylerdurden516 "Organic farming can yield up to three times as much food as conventional farming on the same amount of land.""in developed countries, yields were almost equal on organic and conventional farms. In developing countries, food production could double or triple using organic methods"sciencedaily"dot"com/r­eleases/2007/07/070711134523.h­tm

Where is a study for"If all food was grown organically more than half of he US population would die of starvation after a few years"

[myndy86]

@tylerdurden516 "Today's scientific evidence demonstrates that agroecological methods outperform the use of chemical fertilizers in boosting food production where the hungry live- especially in unfavorable environments.""To date agroecological projects have shown an average crop yield increase of 80% in 57 developing countries, with an average increase of 116% for all African projects."srfood.org/index.php­/en/component/content/article/­1174-report-agroecology-and-th­e-right-to-food

[myndy86]

@tylerdurden516 "Organic farming can lead to increased food production – in many cases a doubling of yields has been seen""the average crop yield increase was even higher for these projects: 116 per cent increase for all African projects and 128 per cent increase for the projects in East Africa""backed up by studies from Asia and Latin America that concluded that organic farming can reduce poverty in an environmentally friendly way." unctad.org/en/docs/ditcted2007­15_en.pdf

[tylerdurden516]

If all food was grown organically more than half of he US population would die of starvation after a few years. Too many crops grown organically would succumb to things like insects and disease to feed this many people. Just a few hundred years ago there was only organic farming. We have longer life expectancy now because of advances in technology. Please don't think we're better off back in the dark ages.

[sheriwhispers]

Well try this for years people grew their own veggies you want organic then grow your own otherwise you are at the mercy of governments end of

[myndy86]

@eweutuberider That is certainly a part of the reason why people starve. Good point.

[eweutuberider]

@myndy86 When Michael Jackson & Lionel Richie did the "We Are The World" song to feed the starving over seas. They raised enough money to fill 12 freighters full of food to send to them. The local governments would only let 3 or the 12 ships dock. They only let them unload 1 ship. The government stole everything they unloaded for themselves.

The real reason there is poverty around the world is because of left wing governments that starve their people to keep them under their control.

[dudefromtheearth]

@travb35 Yep!

[dudefromtheearth]

@myndy86 Lol. So true!
