Monsanto Admits Own 'Bt Cotton' Ineffective Against Pests

· Firm asks farmers to switch to its second-generation product to delay resistance further.[!!!]
· Monsanto's advice ridiculous, say scientists.
http://www.thehindu.com/2010/03/06/stories/2010030658401400.htm

For the first time anywhere in the world, biotech agriculture giant Monsanto has admitted that insects have developed resistance to its Bt cotton crop. Field monitoring in parts of Gujarat has discovered that the Bt crop is no longer effective against the pink bollworm pest there.
[...]
In November 2009, Monsanto's scientists detected unusual survival of the pink bollworm pest while monitoring the Bt cotton crop in Gujarat. In January and February, samples taken from the field were tested in Monsanto's laboratories. It has been confirmed that pink bollworm is now resistant to the pest-killing protein of Bt cotton in four districts — Amreli, Bhavnagar, Junagarh and Rajkot.
[...]
Agricultural scientists and activists say Monsanto's advice is “ridiculous”. The Bollgard II product has no additional toxin to combat pink bollworm, says G.V. Ramanjaneyulu of the Centre for Sustainable Agriculture. It is simply that as a newer product, Bollgard II will take longer for the pest to develop resistance. Anyway, the Bt toxin is only active for 90 days, while pink bollworm is a late season pest, he adds.

New Reactor Uses Sunlight to Turn H2O and CO2 Into Fuel

http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2009-11/co2-recycler-uses-sunlight-turn-waste-carbon-back-fuel


[This is 'old news'. Sandia National Laboratories released this project to the public back in Dec/2007. So, these guys in PopSci must've been 'made' to give out a 'new spin' on a technology the Sandia people were, most likely, trying to put out as a 'commercial solution' to the climategate hoax. All in all, this is good science to keep in mind...]

Scientists at Sandia National Labs, seeking a means to create cheap and abundant hydrogen to power a hydrogen economy, realized they could use the same technology to "reverse-combust" CO2 back into fuel. Researchers still have to improve the efficiency of the system, but they recently demonstrated a working prototype of their "Sunshine to Petrol" machine that converts waste CO2 to carbon monoxide, and then syngas, consuming nothing but solar energy.
The device, boasting the simple title Counter-Rotating-Ring Receiver Reactor Recuperator (we'll go with "CR5") sets off a thermo-chemical reaction by exposing an iron-rich composite to concentrated solar heat. The composite sheds an oxygen molecule when heated and gets one back as it cools.
The cylindrical metal CR5 is divided into hot and cold chambers. Solar energy heats the hot chamber to a scorching 2,700 degrees, hot enough to force the iron oxide composite to lose oxygen atoms. The composite is then thrust into the cool chamber, which is filled with carbon dioxide. As it cools, the iron oxide snatches back its lost oxygen atoms, leaving behind carbon monoxide.

Earth Hour 2010

[Remember, volcanic and solar activity drive global weather patterns. Our day-to-day does not affect the weather (HAARP-style 'ionospheric heaters' can, but regular people have no access to those, do they?). The planet's problem is not 'climate change', it's POLLUTION... but this Earth Hour thing might have a big impact]

Morgellons Disease

· A Crime of Silence.
http://www.viewzone.com/morgellons.html

by Dan Eden

If you have ever watched horror movies, you've probably seen one where a person becomes infested by bugs or worms. Their skin begins to move and ripple as dark shapes squirm under its surface. Suddenly their skin bursts open allowing a colony of bugs to escape! While this is an exaggeration of Morgellons Disease, it's not that far off.
For over a decade now, thousands of people on every continent (except Greenland) have contracted a mysterious disease that still eludes the medical community. Morgellons remains shrouded with controversy, paradoxes and politics and has become a major "conspiracy theory" on the world wide web.
Morgellons victims have the sensation of bugs, worms or sometimes ants crawling under their skin. They describe being stung or feeling like needles are sticking in them. They develop skin lesions that bleed and fester, exuding a kind of film that covers the wounds and prevents them from healing. But the weirdest thing is the mysterious appearance of fluffy, white cotton balls that form on the surface and colored threads that seem to grow from inside the skin.

The threads or filaments are what brings most victims to their physician. After weeks of observing and collecting these threads, patients often bring them to their physician in matchboxes, plastic bags or jars. Quite often, Morgellons sufferers are excited and a bit hysterical and suggest that they have some sort of "thing" living inside of them. Totally unfamiliar with these symptoms, the typical physician usually makes the diagnosis of delusional parasitosis and refers the patient for psychiatric care.
Morgellons does, in fact, have a psychological component. Victims report problems with short term memory, clouded thoughts and emotional fatigue. The reluctance of physicians to perform tests or examine their specimens further incites these victims and deepens the conviction of their caregivers that the wounds are self-inflicted and psychogenic.
With the help of the internet, Mary Leitao, who gave the disease its name, reached out to others who had been turned away by the medical community. After being frustrated with the treatment of her young child who had these symptoms, Mary found other victims of this strange disease. Together they demanded that the medical community (and politicians) take them seriously. Through the influence of her oragnaization, The Morgellons Research Foundation (morgellons.org), some scientists did examine the specimens, specifically the strange threads that Morgellons victims had growing from their wounds. The results of laboratory tests on these fibers were unexpected and extremely strange. This strangeness has only served to feed conspiracy theorists who claim that they are the result of such things as chemtrails, a secret genetic modification program, an alien organism or rogue nano-technology.
As you will see, these theories all seem to have some legitimate basis...

Global Warming: Where is the Evidence?

Today, the Kyoto Protocol will reach the fifth anniversary of its entry into force. But John Christy says that new research is casting doubt on claims that the earth is warming. Some even suggest the world may not be warming much at all. The temperature records cannot be relied on as indicators of global change, he said. He is a professor of atmospheric science at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, a former lead author on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

Dileka - Ionización del agua

http://www.fujisakura.es/dileka.html

Dileka es una cañería o tubo empleado para el tratamiento del agua. Mediante este método de depuración se consigue un agua altamente ionizada, sin modificación de su pH, anti-oxidante y anti-bacteriana; además, la estructura física del agua es transformada y su composición se enriquece fuertemente en pequeñas asociaciones de moléculas de agua, fácilmente asimilables, solventes e hidratantes.

Modificaciones físicas del agua
El agua de entrada se conduce a través de los chips AQUAATOM, situados dentro del Dileka formando un patrón en espiral en el sentido de las agujas del reloj. Pasando por estos chips AQUAATOM, el agua genera grandes cantidades de iones tanto positivos como negativos. Los iones negativos generados permanecen en el agua, mientras que los iones positivos son descargados fuera del Dileka a través de tierra.

Ventajas

• Se suprime la oxidación del agua.
• El agua posee un mayor poder de limpieza.
• El agua resultante tiene más vitalidad.
• El agua posee un coeficiente de calentamiento mayor y por lo tanto tarda menos en calentarse.
• El agua es anti-parasitaria.
• Dileka no necesita fuentes de energía.
• Dileka no contamina y protege el medioambiente.
• Dileka es rentable. Previene la acumulación y la oxidación de sus tubos internos alargando su vida útil. También ayuda en el ahorro de detergentes, champús y jabones domésticos o industriales.
• Dileka no tiene ningún coste de mantenimiento.

Aplicaciones del Dileka
Piscinas, campos de cultivo, calefacción, torres de refrigeración, industria, lavandería, hospitales, hoteles, ...

La debacle del arroz de Bayer en EE UU

· En 2006 la multinacional alemana Bayer AG desarrolló una modalidad de arroz transgénico no autorizado que contaminó el 30% de la cosecha estadounidense.

http://www.diagonalperiodico.net/Nuevo-articulo,9921.html

Los cultivos experimentales ya han causado estragos en otros lugares del planeta, con repercusiones a escala global. Así, en 2006 Estados Unidos vivió un episodio de crisis agrícola, cuando la empresa alemana Bayer AG, a través de su subsidiaria Bayer CropScience, desarrolló el arroz transgénico no autorizado Liberty Link, que contaminó el 30% de la cosecha estadounidense. El foco fue situado en Riceland, en el Estado de Arkansas, lugar de producción y comercialización de la tercera parte del arroz estadounidense y el más grande a nivel mundial.
Como consecuencia de esta amenaza, tanto la Unión Europea como Japón bloquearon la importación de arroz norteamericano, lo que supuso a los agricultores afectados unas pérdidas que Greenpeace estimó en 1.200 millones de dólares, derivadas de los gastos para analizar las cosechas, retirar productos, cancelar pedidos y embargar importaciones.
A todo esto se añaden las pérdidas por los daños en la imagen y la falta de confianza por parte de los consumidores. Tras el incidente, Bayer Crop- Science, que intentó evadir toda responsabilidad, alegando que la contaminación se produjo por una causa “de fuerza mayor”, fue condenada a finales de 2009 por un tribunal de EEUU al pago de dos millones de dólares en concepto de indemnización a dos campesinos de Missouri, cuyos cultivos de arroz resultaron contaminados por el cruce con la variedad transgénica Liberty Link.

Cien campos secretos de prueba de transgénicos con la connivencia del PSOE

· Desde 2008 no se publican las actas de la Comisión Nacional de Bioseguridad informando en qué campos del Estado se cultivan Organismos Genéticamente Modificados. Empresas como Pioneer, Bayer o Monsanto tienen las puertas abiertas para experimentar.

http://www.diagonalperiodico.net/Cien-campos-secretos-de-prueba-de.html

“Tenemos constancia de que se llevan años haciendo experimentos con semillas transgénicas al aire libre sin que los Concelhos, en el caso de Galicia, los ayuntamientos o las organizaciones sociales tengan conocimiento de ello. Desde el Ministerio y la Xunta nos han ocultado información”. Así lo declaraba para DIAGONAL Charo Sánchez, agricultora y secretaria de medio ambiente del Sindicato Labrego Galego (SLG) tras descubrir informes de campos de ensayo de maíz al aire libre realizados en 2008 en los concelhos de Arteixo o Santa Uxía. “Algo que desde la Administración nos habían negado. Ha sido como un jarro de agua fría”.
La información sobre los cultivos experimentales con organismos genéticamente modificados (OGM) sigue siendo oscura y confusa. Los campos de prueba al aire libre son, normalmente, parcelas arrendadas por las multinacionales a agricultores y agricultoras para probar nuevas variedades transgénicas (maíz, patata, remolacha o algodón, entre otras). Ensayos que forman parte de los protocolos previos exigidos por la Agencia Europea de Seguridad Alimentaria para autorizar el cultivo comercial de nuevas variedades de OGM.
Un proceso por el que ya pasó el maíz MON810, el único transgénico que se cultiva comercialmente en el Estado español de manera legal, a pesar de haber levantado ampollas en la sociedad civil por sus consecuencias sociales o medioambientales. De hecho, el pasado mes de octubre, el Ministerio de Medio Ambiente Rural y Marino (MARM) reconocía por primera vez la existencia de personas afectadas por contaminación de sus cultivos con maíz transgénico MON810. Un peligro que se multiplica con los campos experimentales de transgénicos, cuyo cultivo comercial está prohibido por su falta de garantías, ya que ni siquiera han pasado por un trámite previo que evalúe su seguridad.
