ou can see from the video that E.Coli is actually a very important means that Monsanto needs in order to make their “product,” so, of course, they will do anything to protect that. This is just one example of how our safety is in jeopardy here. When a multi-billion dollar corporation has an agenda like this, and when this corporation has essentially transplanted their own people into the government, can we really feel safe?
It’s blatantly obvious that this is unethical in every sense of the word. But most people don’t know or don’t care–or, they feel too helpless to do anything about it. We are essentially facing a monolithic enterprise. It’s David and Goliath in the truest sense. What can one do?
There is Power in Numbers
It might not seem like a lot, but there is something everyone can do. We can speak out about this, and we can let our representatives know that this is unethical. At the end of this article is a link to Millions Against Monsanto for more information.
Other things we can do is educate ourselves. We have to be very aware of the food we eat–that our children eat. It’s sad that it has to come to this, but this is the reality. Buying organic food when possible is an alternative. Some have better access to it than others. Growing your own food is even better, as long as you are sure that the seeds are not Monsanto seeds.
There are plenty of things a person can do, but if we all come together, we can make change. I’ve said this before on another hub about Monsanto, but once upon a time, the tobacco industry was the Goliath that we were up against, and that giant has fallen hard. The same can happen to Monsanto.
