Environment

Academic research carried out on genetically modified (GM) food is either rife with conflicts of interest (in favour of GMO corporations and their products), or when it shows negative health impacts for consumers, is ignored by corporate media. Either way, using the public in a mass experiment to promote GMO’s only enriches the GM crop industry and their subsidiaries in academia. Humans together with the bees and the flora and fauna are being used in a massive experiment that has in store unforeseen consequences for them all.

In Washington, President Trump announced that environmental regulations are “out of control” – and promised to get them back under control.

The Trump administration has instituted gag orders and freezes on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Trump has banned Environmental Protection Agency staff from talking to press after suspending all contracts Other agencies, including the US Department of Agriculture and the Health and Human Services, have been issued similar gag orders EPA staff were instructed to freeze all its grants and contracts, as well as to stop communicating with the media and on social media.

A Republican-proposed House Resolution aiming to terminate US membership of the UN has quietly slipped past public radar and been introduced in Congress. The proposed bill sets to rectify Israel’s image on the world stage and save money for the US. At the same time it aims to bypass climate change and gun regulations/controls and to allow Big Oil uninhibited access to pollute the planet. The new bill would set the stage for the United States to terminate its membership in the United Nations. The proposal could throw the world body under the bus at the most crucial time in its history.

The Badlands National Park, in an apparent effort to stay true to it's name, sent out a series of tweets earlier today about climate change which were most likely intended specifically to ruffle the feathers of the new Trump administration.  The tweets have since been deleted but not before being retweeted thousands of times.

“Today, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is higher than at any time in the last 650,000 years. #climate”
