M en M terugroepactie in de EU

Bron: gmofreeusa.org In de EU wel een terugroepactie in de USA niet.

NVWA heeft gewaarschuwd: Mars heeft het op haar Nederlandse pagina gezet.

In the EU, Mars Wrigley recalled Crispy M&M’s due to the presence of a GMO. That’s right, the mere presence of a single, unlabeled, GMO ingredient caused the candy to be pulled off the market. https://kamcity.com/namnews/products-promotions/mars-recalls-some-mm-products-due-to-unauthorized-gmo-ingredient/…

Beetje laat, tweet van 30-8-21, AH waarschuwde al op 4 augustus!

Maize MZIR098 Scientific opinion on application for authorisation of genetically modified Maize MZIR098 for food and feed uses submitted under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 by Syngenta (EFSA‐GMO‐DE‐2017‐142) EFSA opinion: 26 June 2020 Deadline: 27 July 2020 Submit comments

EFSA opinion : “The GMO Panel does not identify safety concerns regarding the toxicity and allergenicity of the eC ry3.1Ab, mC ry3A (Bt´s!, webmaster) and PAT proteins (toxic herbicide glufosinate-ammonium! webmaster) as expressed in maize MZIR 098, and finds no evidence that the genetic modification would change the overall allergenicity of maize MZIR 098. In the context of this application, the consumption of food and feed from maize MZIR 098 does not represent a nutritional concern in humans and animals“.

De wetenschappers van EFSA zien geen enkele giftigheid bij deze gentech mais. Maar de herbiciden en de Bt die er over gesprayd worden dan? Daar doet de EFSA geen onderzoek naar! En dat al jaren! Schande! Dit moet stoppen! Bron/Source.

Please share the video widely. Please share again and again.

A link to this video was contained in a joint press release (see below), between IRT and the German-based Coordination against BAYER-Dangers (CBG). On Thursday, April 23rd, our release went to about 700 European news outlets.

On Sunday, April 26th, CBD hosted Jeffrey at their online press event, which also featured a member of the European Parliament. Click here to view Jeffrey’s presentation.

Jeffrey also presented at the day-long online protest event that occurred in parallel with Bayer’s annual meeting on Tuesday.

He submitted two questions, with significant explanation, to be read during the shareholder meeting. Although Bayer claimed they read and answered every question during the meeting, they reduced his two minute explanation to a butchered 5 seconds. Bayer thereby depriving its shareholders and the public from hearing Jeffrey’s dire prediction about the company’s future, and specific remedies needed to help prevent bankruptcy.

What follows is the text of yesterday’s press release provides Jeffrey’s analysis and recommendations.

Risk assessment of genetically engineered plants that can persist and propagate in the environment

Paper Bauer-Panskus, A., Miyazaki, J., Kawall, K. et al. Risk assessment of genetically engineered plants that can persist and propagate in the environment. Environ Sci Eur 32, 32 (2020). https://doi.org/10.1186/s12302-020-00301-0

Fragment abstract:

Abstract

“New challenges arise in risk assessment when genetically engineered (GE) plants can persist and propagate in the environment as well as produce viable offspring. Next generation effects can be influenced by heterogeneous genetic backgrounds and unexpected effects can be triggered in interaction with environmental conditions. Consequently, the biological characteristics of the original events cannot be regarded as sufficient to conclude on hazards that may emerge in following generations. Potential hazards identified by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) include exacerbating weed problems, displacement and even extinction of native plant species.”
