Why Choose Organic Food?
Okay, so I'm not going to repeat the obvious
about insecticides and pesticides etc, but I would like to
repeat the common sense argument against GM foods. Is it too
late? Has the choice already been taken from us? Is the finely
balanced ecology of our planet Earth already contaminated
and forever changed by the blind hand of mankind? If it has,
can we reverse it? The only definite answer I can offer is
no we cannot reverse it. I will continue to argue though,
that we should stop it now. If you were cutting with a knife
and suddenly realised you have cut your finger, do you continue
to cut? Of course not. The damage has already been done, but
were you to continue you are only going to make it worse...
With regard ( GM ) genetically modified food,
I repeat, in my view what is happening here is criminal arrogance.
Our scientists abusing the delicate balance of life on the
planet Earth in an experiment, and let us not kid ourselves,
this is a very dangerous experiment. The balance of life as
we know it on Earth is governed by complex cycles of co-dependancy
in very many forms, we are discovering and understanding more
and more symbionic relationships between very diverse species
all the time. More often than not we discover these simple
symbionic relationships are critical to the survival of one
or both or all of the species involved in that relationship.
Often we then discover the importance of that particular species
to the local ecology and often that impotance reaching to
an ever wider environment. We are still struggling to understand
the complexity of these often simple relationships and one
such relationship we are still struggling to understand is
man's critically important relationship to our planet Earth.
What we do know is that in this relationship man is wholly
dependant on the life cycle and continued existence of the
planet. These scientists are using the planet and tampering
with nature and experimenting on life forms with the sole
aim of greater profit which will give them greater power.
We simply must not let them continue for all our sakes...
They know not what they do. They simply don't understand...
