Author and Public Banking Institute Chair Ellen Brown discusses the economic and political clout of the new entity. writer Nick Meyer speaks about the May 19th March Against Monsanto, Dr. Stephen Frantz challenges descriptions of the GMO/Agrochemical industry as safe, sustainable and benevolent, and Vandana Shiva shares her big picture views of agro-chemical agriculture as an artifact of a colonial, patriarchal system, and ways to move beyond it. Comment by Yuri S excellent episode! I particularly liked the gentleman who was debunking all the GMO/Monsanto talking points and the interview with Vandana Shiva she is brilliant. Its so disheartening to see popular scientests like Neil Degrasse Tyson and Bill Nye who combat the censorship of evolution in public schools and others schools and who fight against the deadly Merchants of Doubt when it comes to climate change but are peddling the junk science of GMOs brought to you by!...you know who, baffles my mind but then again many Green groups and media that report on the climate crisis don't even touch on how meat industry and food industry are more deadly for the planet even if we stopped all fossil fuel consumption/extraction and Naomi Klein and Avi Lewis keep ignoring this and 'Cowspiracy' filmmakers and viewers who want them to adresss that. 2018-07-18T16:30:18Z
