Finally, overwhelming evidence to close down the anti-GMO activists' unproven and unscientific claims of risks from GMO food. It's time to put an end to the hysteria.
Researchers from University of California-Davis Department of Animal Science examined the health and productivity of 100 Billion farm animals over a 27 year period, encompassing a trillion feedings, both before and after GMO foods were introduced to their feedings... and look at what that massive project showed:

What did they find? That GM feed is safe and nutritionally equivalent to non-GMO feed. There was no indication of any unusual trends in the health of animals since 1996 when GMO crops were first harvested. Considering the size of the dataset, it can reasonably be said that the debate over the impact of GE feed on animal health is closed: there is zero extraordinary impact.
There's no massive study. The guy referenced a number of studies that had been done. Though, he didn't give any details about them or, more importantly, who paid for them.
Do you take every op ed written as canon that you have to rush to post on the internet?

"...But there was one fact the “Biotech Knowledge Center” Web site failed to mention: Monsanto paid for the UC Davis research.
...You name it, and biotechnology companies help pay for it at UC Davis: laboratory studies, scholarships, post.doctoral students' salaries, professors' travel expenses, even the campus utility bill. Some professors earn extra money, up to $2,000 a month, consulting for such companies on the side..."
Holy, you know what. Conflict of interest much?
So much for the myth of universities being liberal.
Liberal logic: A small cohort of scientists with a political agenda offer indisputable proof of AGW and anyone who argues with the settled science is a heretic and RWNJ. On the other hand, scientific proof related to the safety of GMO crops is bogus science by a small cohort of politically-motivated scientists with ties to the Evil Koch Brothers.
Don't even get me started on the settled science of vaccines and EMF energy.

The smart ones do...so,you are saying that YOU believe a study paid for by Monsanto? If you do then there should definately be other things on YOUR wish list.

So in other words academic scientists are for sale and can't be trusted. I wonder who funds all the AGW research.... :thinking:

Are you saying you believe AGW research funded by a Wall Street who wants to trade trillions in carbon credits and funded by Uncle Sam who wants to tax carbon?
