Geruisloze aanpassingen in de UK

Zonder enige ophef wordt in de UK, waar de wetten van de EU na de Brexit niet meer zullen gelden, een nieuw GMO programma geïntroduceerd, waarbij in 1 keer meer dan 13.000 genetische veranderingen in 1 cel wordt aangebracht, massively parallelled gene editing genaamd. Deze gewassen e.d. die daar mee bewerkt worden, hoeven in de UK niet gecontroleerd te worden op veiligheid en hoeven niet gelabeld te worden!

Meer gegevens ontvang ik op woensdag a.s. en er komt ook een paper met ernstige waarschuwing over dit onderwerp aan, die ik nog zal ontvangen. Niet alleen de voedselvoorziening in de UK is gevaar, maar dat zal niet tot dat land beperkt blijven!

Wordt vervolgd!

UK: Much worse than chlorinated chicken? DANGERS OF GENE-EDITED FOODS

Be aware that there is a crisis in the UK at present, as there is a real danger that parliament will soon pass a law that redefines GMOs in such a way that gene-edited organisms are excluded from the definition. This would mean that 90% of GMOs will become deregulated, and no longer considered as GMOs at all. (Dutch translation below/Nederlandse vertaling hieronder).

Yet more problems with CRISPR – with consequences for food safety

2-22-2020 GMWatch: “Adding to the list of problems that can occur with CRISPR, a new study shows that when the CRISPR/Cas system was used in a gene editing procedure aimed at inserting genetic material in mice, a high frequency was found of insertions of multiple copies of the DNA molecules used as…” More

Wi-Fi een belangrijke bedreiging voor menselijk leven

Wi-Fi is an important threat to human health☆ Martin L. Pall

Quote: “Published in the journal Environmental Research, the peer-reviewed paper explains that exposure to WiFi signals, which are everywhere these days, can lead to: oxidative stress, sperm and testicular damage, neuropsychiatric effects including EEG (electroencephalogram) changes, apoptosis (programmed cell death), cellular DNA damage, endocrine changes, and calcium overload.” Source: Newstarget.com.

Philanthrocapitalism: The Gates Foundation’s African programmes are not charity

Quote:” By and large, the Foundation’s grants do not support locally defined priorities, do not fit within the holistic approach urged by many development experts, and do not investigate the long-term effectiveness and risks of genetic modification. ” (2017).

New global threat from GMOs

@GMWatch: “There’s an enormous new threat you probably don’t know much about. Not climate chaos, dying oceans, depleted soils, or widespread chemical pollution. If we magically reverse all of these problems, we may still lose the natural world we cherish.” gmwatch.org/en/news/latest-news/19219…#gmo

The Institute for Responsible Technology, 11,1K Abonnees. “If the biotech industry and their government supporters have their way, thousands upon thousands of labs will introduce countless altered species. Collectively, they can replace nature. Take action at www.ProtectNatureNow.com“.

Urgent message for all Australians

Latest news:

Senator RICE (Victoria) (15:30): I move: That the Gene Technology Amendment (2019 Measures No. 1) Regulations 2019, made under the Gene Technology Act 2000 , be disallowed [F2019L00573].

Division: NOES 42 (29 majority) AYES 13 PAIRS 0

Forwarded message:

Thanks so much if you contacted your Senators to demand they ensure that all genetically modified organisms (GMOs) continue to be assessed for safety. The Senate will vote on the issue this Wednesday (13th) and Labor Party support will be vital. Unfortunately, the Shadow Health Minister Chris Bowen has said Labor won’t support the Greens disallowance motion – and we need to change this.

Can you give him a call on 02 6277 4822?

Alternatively you can send him a tweet

Or message him on his Facebook page

The organic industry and the European Network of Scientists for Social and Environmental Responsibility last week joined the growing number of voices warning of the potentially disastrous consequences of these regulatory changes. They mean that new GM techniques such as CRISPR can be used in our environment and food chain with no requirement for safety assessment or traceability.

Please tell Chris to regulate CRISPR!

Thanks so much for your support,
