Future of Food
The classic documentary detailing the background to genetically modified foods and showing the trends in farming today. It describes how genetic modification is done and why these foods are so hazardous to human health, also the political agenda behind them.
Issues covered include insecticide crops, antibiotic resistant markers, suicide seeds (created with the terminator gene whose patent is half owned by the US government) patenting of life, lack of labelling, use of bacteria and viruses to penetrate plant cells, reduction of yield, contamination of non-GM crops, legal action against farmers whose crops have been contaminated, the activities of Monsanto and the loss of land by subsistence farmers globally.
It concludes with positive ideas about where we go from here.
Essential information for those concerned about food and health.
