'EXTREMELY TOXIC' #GMOs Terrify You Yet? DNA from GMOs can pass DIRECTLY INTO HUMANS, study confirms www.naturalnews.com/045710_GMOs_gene_transfer_DNA.html

Realizing Increased Photosynthetic Efficiency (RIPE) is engineering plants to more efficiently turn the sun’s energy into food to sustainably increase worldwide food productivity. The international research project is funded by a $25 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Team members of the RIPE project transplanting seedlings for the 2016 field trials. RIPE is engineering crops that more efficiently turn the sun's energy into food. This project could increase yields by as much as 60% to help smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia feed their communities and provide for their families.
Greenpeace together with other organizations protest in front of the Department of Agriculture calling for food safety. Greenpeace together with other concerned organizations are demanding the Philippine government to "stop GMO invasion" by cancelling all commercialization and field trials of genetically-modified organisms in the country.
The Department of Agriculture, responsible for regulating GMOs, has never denied approval for any GMO crop. Greenpeace contends that GMOs are dangerous to human health, biodiversity and farmers’ livelihoods.

This is the bottle of coyote urine I donated to the pea-planting cause, which is supposed to keep the rabbits away... and stinks enough to keep humans away, too.

During photosynthesis in C3 crops, such as wheat and rice, the enzyme Rubisco will react with oxygen (instead of carbon dioxide) creating a plant-toxic compound that must be recycled, wasting energy. In this greenhouse experiment, six-week-old plants engineered to more efficiently process the toxic compound (front right) are visibly larger than an unmodified plant (front left).

Went to the lab today for some genetic engineering. I thought I'd go with a Valentine Theme and create a lovemouse, hope you like it.

Avaaz and Greenpeace deliver the first European Citizens' Initiative to EU Commissioner for Health and Consumer Policy John Dalli signed by over 1 million European citizens. The initiative calls on the Commission to ban genetically modified (GM) crops until a new independent, ethical, scientific body is established to assess their impact. The 1 million signatures were included in a 380-square-meter piece of 3D pavement art placed in front of the European Commission building.
