Genetic Roulette 1hr 24min documentary about our health and GMOs

Full documentary made available by the maker Responsible Technology. (This may only be until Oct 31st. /JC)

From the Youtube info:

Are you and your family on the wrong side of a bet?

When the US government ignored repeated warnings by its own scientists and allowed untested genetically modified (GM) crops into our environment and food supply, it was a gamble of unprecedented proportions. The health of all living things and all future generations were put at risk by an infant technology.

After two decades, physicians and scientists have uncovered a grave trend. The same serious health problems found in lab animals, livestock, and pets that have been fed GM foods are now on the rise in the US population. And when people and animals stop eating genetically modified organisms (GMOs), their health improves.

This seminal documentary provides compelling evidence to help explain the deteriorating health of Americans, especially among children, and offers a recipe for protecting ourselves and our future.

Thanks!

I bought a copy to donate to our local library after viewing this great documentary at a local sustainability group's meeting. Some people who missed that meeting or can't get to the library NEED to see this!!!

Kick!

I see that responsibilitytechnology.org has said they'll make it free until Oct 31. After that I guess you'll have to go back to paying a minimal $2 or so charge to view it online or buy the documentary DVD.

Here's another video you might not have seen yet. The documentary Bitter Seeds looks at another aspect of GMOs, i.e. the impact of Monsanto's patented GM seeds on the peasant farmers in India. Many of them who naively buy into the marketing propaganda from Monsanto's sales reps get hooked into an endless cycle of debt to pay for the seeds and the chemicals required to be used along with them. Many of them end up committing suicide after poor harvests or crop failures leave them without the means to pay off their debts. Not that this is a new entirely new phenomena, but the suicide rates have significantly increased once Monsanto was allowed to start flogging their proprietary, patented seeds to poor Indian farmers.

and producer of Genetic Roulette.


Note that the full Genetic Roulette video above will only be free to view through Oct 31, thanks to the financial support of some supporters of geneticroulettemovie.com. After that you might have to pay a small fee to stream the video online or purchase the DVD. If you are sympathetic to the goals of this movie or to getting GMO products on the grocery shelves labelled as they are in many other industrialized countries consider buying a copy of the DVD to show your support.
