Default Costing the earth

The main reason such enormous corporate resources are being poured into GM crops by the worlds second larger polluter, is that within the next ten years due to climate change, profits related to the cultivation of conventional crops will be drastically reduced.

Strains of GM crops currently being developed have been engineered to perform far better in the conditions that have been projected, and the creation of these crops has nothing whatsoever to do with anything other than increasing/maintaining profits.

The corporate media have deftly diverted attention away from the real reasons for GM, and very few people understand that the primary reason for GM is related directly to climate change issues.

Posters on here, will be fully aware of the effects of climate change in recent years, and of the lies and confusion spread by the corporate media, in relation to perhaps the single most important subject in the world today, which will affect pretty much everyone on the planet.
