"An estimated 13 million people die every year from starvation, and those who survive growing up without enough food often suffer from brain damage and a low IQ for the rest of their lives.
The reason isn't our inability to stop this, or overpopulation in the 3rd world.
This worsening global famine that kills 13 million people every year could be completely eliminated, and all it would take would be a yearly investment of 30 billion dollar to double the global food production. This is less than the money the US spends on the war in Iraq every three months."
"Multinational corporations and 1st world nations are now buying up land in 3rd world countries to grow crops used for biofuels. This land is often currently used by people who have lived there for generations but don't legally own the land. There was a revolution in Madagascar that was caused by the nation's president handing most of the good farmland of this nation to a South Korean Biofuel firm for free while millions of people in Madagascar are malnutrated..
This is part of a larger global pattern of 3rd world farmland being acquired by rich nations for the production of biofuel."
"If the genetically manipulated versions cause certain crops to go extinct, we will be dependent on these companies and tax free foundations to give us the original versions we have used for generations. This would hand them complete control over our food production, which is the true goal of Monsanto according to whistleblowers who worked for the company."
