In reply to the discussion: By opposing Golden Rice, Greenpeace defies its own values – and harms children [View all]dtom67
(634 posts)11. Is there a shortage of food?
I don't believe there is. The problem is poverty, not food scarcity. Solving the poverty problem caused by the soul crushing debt that the West has imposed on the Third World through the World Bank would do more to relieve hunger and malnutrition than playing games with our food supply.
But , of course, Profit is more important than actually saving people.
Dr Patrick Moore has spent the last 2 decades shilling for Corporate America, the very people who are destroying our World right now. He's about as "independent" as Bill O'Reilly.....
Fuck him AND the bought-and-paid-for " major science and health organizations ".

To me, the anti-GM folks are pretty much the same as the anti-vaccine folks.
