2006. GMO – godina mudrih odluka?

Greenpeace u Berlinu upozorava kako korporacija Monsanto traži od Europe dopuštenje za sijanje GM soje na cijelom europskom teritoriju. Naime, ove godine istječe europski moratorij na uzgoj GM soje - dopušten je samo uvoz. Sjećate li se hrvatskog broda HOPE u Poljskoj luci prije dva mjeseca? Kada ga je Greenpeace zaustavio, a kasnije je ipak iskrcana GM soja iz Argentine?
Ne? - saznajte više.



Monsantov zahtjev za dozvolu sijanja GMO soje u Europi iz 12. mjeseca 2005.

Međutim, Greenpeace se oštro protivi naumu ove korporacije:

Experience in Argentina and the United States has showed the cultivation of Monsanto´s GE soybeans contaminates conventional and organic agriculture. Furthermore, it has been reported that the cultivation of these crops often leads to the increased use of pesticides. Increasing rain forest destruction, especially in Argentina, is also closely related to the expansion of GE soy planting. Recent research also shows irregularities of the introduced genetic construct, which could cause unintended effects in these crops. Some alarming health signals were reported after feeding trials with mice.

Sutra u Berlinu započinje dvodnevna European Conference on GMO-free Regions, Biodiversity and Rural Development. Cilj konferencije je upozoriti na opasnosti i štetnost upotrebe GM organizama u poljoprivredi i hrani. Hrvatska ne sudjeluje na konferenciji iako se 12 od 20 županija već proglasilo GMO free. No i to je upitno jer su Madžari nedavno pronašli hrvatski GM kukuruz uzgojen u Slavoniji. Pogledajte kako je ucrtana Hrvatska na europskoj GM free karti! :) Sloveniju su ''malo'' proširili!

Monsantou je jučer odobren zahtjev za upotrebu i proizvodnju 3 vrste genetski modificiranog kukuruza u cijeloj Europi! Vjerojatno će tako biti i sa sojom. Evo što piše Greenpeace:

The maize varieties approved were: GA21 (tolerant to herbicide) and MON863, both approved for use in food; while the hybrid MON863xMON810, which produces two insecticide toxins, was approved for import and processing.

"Greenpeace is particularly concerned about the safety of MON863 maize, which triggered health problems in rats. The story of MON863 highlights all the flaws of the GMO authorisation process in the EU, which is marked by a lack of transparency, poor risk assessment, contempt for the democratic process and a preference for treating EU citizens as guinea pigs," said Eric Gall.
