Since our feature 'GE
Dominates Election Debate [1]' this site has been swamped with the GE issue.
Here are some of the articles.
We have the Council of Trade Unions [2]
criticising the Greens for not being 'constructive [3]'.
The Life Sciences
Network [4] asserts that it is being 'politically
neutral [5]' in its information about GE and offers some 'facts [6]'
about corngate [7]
. Greenpeace offers some humour and analysis with the 'Clarkies
corn-coverup [8]'. Also Physicians and
Scientists for Responsible Genetics [9] talk about 'more
appropriate uses [10]' and 'wasted
resources [11]' for the reported 3 percent of current research funding which
is involved in activities which would be delayed by a Moratorium extension.
They then cast questions about the 'future
safety of GE foods [12]' and answer some 'irrational
outbursts [13]' from their critics.
Two posts question the accuracy of an article published in Nature [14]
which asserts that 'genetically-modified
corn ... contaminated native strains in ... Mexico [15]'( here
is the original article [16] ). Followed by the Bluegreens [17]
attacking the Greens [18] for being 'spinners [19]'
(not of wool, but rather facts).
For the keen you can download a sheet of GE free stickers here [20].
Look out for them at a bus station or lamppost near you! And if all that's
not enough for you you can add something yourself by clicking here [21].
Enjoy!
