The Bugs May Be Winning

Bt corn was originally created, or so Monsanto claims, to eradicate a farming nuisance known as rootworm. But as evidence from a GMO corn lab comes in, we are learning how the pests are living the lives in fields planted with GM Bt corn seed.

In 2011, a cornfield planted in Iowa with Bt corn was found to be completely decimated by rootworm. A study, just published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, describes the western corn rootworm’s rapid evolution after dining on the engineered crop.

In other words, the bugs evolve perhaps faster than the chemicals we develop to use against them.


We're in a life and death struggle with all the other species living on this planet. Do we have the ability or even the right to kill them all so that we can live? And if we do kill them all, just how in the heck are we going to survive?


We humans must stop being parasites.
