The Science Behind GMOs: GMO Free USA has given Babes Against Biotech permission to publish their growing list of hundreds of studies which either disprove GMO industry fallacies about the safety of GMOs or show evidential harm or environmental damage. Here in Hawaii we are in GMO Ground Zero, the Big 6 GMO companies use Hawaii as global experimental and seed growing headquarters and we are being poisoned daily. We need all the evidence we can gather to defend our future, over 5,000 genetic and experimental chemical open air field tests have been conducted on Hawaii against our will.
As the list progresses and new evidence is added daily, GMO Free USA's compilation is now available in alphabetized volumes on the BAB website. Huge mahalo and aloha to Connecticut Mom and GMO Free USA founder Diana Reeves, who was the first ever non-GMO advocate featured on the BAB page. Last updated 8/28.
The studies are divided into four linked alphabetized volumes organized by lead scientist name.
