Light Emitted from Media Devices at Night is Associated with Decline in Sperm Quality
by BN Frank, August 31, 2020
Medical warnings about the growing list of health risks associated with artificial light (both Bluelight and White) from screens and light bulbs have been published in variety of sources including the New York Times. Now research indicates it could be affecting sperm quality as well.
Of course there is plenty of research that has already determined Electromagnetic Radiation from smartphones and other digital and wireless devices also affects sperm health (see 1, 2) and much more. In fact – there is a class action lawsuit against several Smartphone models for exceeding U.S. RF radiation safety levels.
"COVID Vaccines" and "Genetically Modified Humans"
By Dr. Carrie Madej and Mark Taliano, July 19, 2020
In the following video, Dr. Carrie Madaj questions what "it is to be human". Why? Because the so-called "COVID" vaccines deploy recombinant DNA/RNA technology that "rewrites" the genetic code much as Monsanto, for example, rewrites the genetic code of numerous seeds (including tomatoes, corn, etc) not to mention the application of genetic bio-technology to animals:
"Biotechnology can be classified as the cloning of animals with identical genetic composition or genetic engineering (via recombinant DNA technology and gene editing) to produce genetically modified animals or microorganisms. Cloning helps to conserve species and breeds, particularly those with excellent biological and economical traits. Recombinant DNA technology combines genetic materials from multiple sources into single cells to generate proteins." (Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology)
Genetically-modified organisms can be patented and owned. Monsanto owns the GMO seeds. Once DNA vaccines are used on humans – and it has never been done before – humans could possibly be "owned". We could in theory be "patented".
None of this has been discussed at length, and very little about this is known publicly.
No randomized placebo-controlled trials have been conducted. Vaccine manufacturers are exempt from these and many other safeguards.
In 2010, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) admitted that this type of technology can be used to "enhance and subvert" humans at a genetic level.
Hydrogel nanotechnology is injected beneath the skin. It can interface with cell phones and Artificial Intelligence to monitor basically everything within the body, including anxieties, emotions, ovulations, vitamins etc. etc.
Once implanted, the technology spreads throughout the body. Scientists do not know how this affects our DNA.
Recombinant RNA and DNA technology will, argues Dr. Madej, cause permanent and unknown genetic changes in a person’s body.
Will it create a new species and destroy an old one?

Over 65 Organizations Call on Home Depot and Lowe’s to End Sales of Cancer-linked Roundup
Friends of the Earth, August 26, 2020
Sixty-six organizations representing over 7.5 million members sent letters to Home Depot (NYSE: HD) and Lowe’s (NYSE: LOW) today urging them to remove Roundup and other glyphosate-based her- bicides from store shelves and online sales. The organizations, representing consumers, environmentalists, bee- keepers and farmers, also urged the companies to expand sales of organic and other safer alternatives. Competitors Costco (NASDAQ: COST) and B&Q have already announced commitments to phase out glyphosate-based products.
Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is the most widely used weedkiller in the world. Glyphosate is classified as a probable human carcinogen by the World Health Organization and has been linked to high rates of kidney disease in farming communities and to shortened pregnancy in a cohort of women in the Midwest. Animal studies and bioassays link glyphosate and its formulations to Parkinson’s, endocrine disruption, DNA damage, decreased sperm function, disruption of the gut microbiome, and fatty liver disease.
In the environment, glyphosate is a primary driver of Monarch butterfly declines and has been associated with harm to honeybees including negative impacts on larval development,cognitive abilities, colony parasite load, and gut microbiota.
Plight of organic farmer 'poisoned' in Provence pesticide attack becomes cause célèbre in France
by Henry Samuel, August 22, 2020
An organic farmer in Provence who claims he was poisoned by jealous neighbours with pesticides they poured onto his vegetables has become a cause célèbre in France, which is facing a growing backlash against intensive agriculture.
For Tristan and Oriane Arlaud, 46 and 37, it was a dream come true.
The married couple dropped their urban jobs as restaurateur and psychologist over a decade ago to become organic farmers outside the picturesque village of Puy-Sainte-Réparade near Aix-en-Provence, southern France.
Their business, Les Jardins de Paradis (Gardens of Paradise), has since flourished, with the couple teaming up with other local producers to provide around 200 families with organic fruit and vegetables, along with bread, eggs, cheese and poultry.
However, in July, disaster struck when their greenhouses were attacked by intruders who slashed their plants with secateurs.
After spending hours seeking to save his prized tomatoes, peppers and courgettes, and consuming some, Mr Arlaud fell unexpectedly sick and was hospitalised, losing seven kilogrammes in four days.
Iowa Farmers Suffer Deep Losses After Rare Storm Flattens Fields
REAL TRUTH
Farmers across a wide swath of Iowa are dealing with the heartbreaking aftermath of a rare wind storm that turned what was looking like a record corn crop into deep losses for many.
The storm, known as a derecho, slammed the Midwest with straight line winds of up to 100 miles per hour on Monday, gaining strength as it plowed through Iowa farm fields, flattening corn and bursting grain bins still filled with tens of millions of bushels of last year’s harvest.
The lifestyle of the family farmer is fading fast.
In the 21st century, few are able to step outside on a warm summer morning and hear hens clucking contentedly and cattle lowing in the field. Nor are they able to walk to the garden and pull up fresh carrots, harvest succulent lettuce and pick tomatoes from the vine. This way of life is rapidly disappearing.
A class of society is being lost, and with it, iconic barns and sprawling rural landscapes are fading at an alarming rate. The concept of a small family farm – one that has been owned and operated by one family for possibly several generations – has been all but destroyed.
USDA Undermines the Will of Congress
Cornucopia Institute, August 13, 2020
The USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) announced on August 10 that it will be reducing reimbursement amounts paid to organic farmers under the Organic Certification Cost Share Program (OCCSP).
The program previously reimbursed 75% of certification costs (up to $750 per scope) for producers maintaining or obtaining organic certification under the National Organic Program (NOP). This type of assistance is crucial in today’s climate. Community-scale farmers are pivoting to create new markets and keep employees and customers safe, often while working off-farm jobs to make ends meet and carry health insurance. The Cornucopia Institute regularly hears from authentic organic farmers who struggle to find money for their organic certification fees.
"As a small-scale organic grower, the cost-share program makes entering the organic market accessible and fair. Without the cost share, many beginning organic farmers may never take the leap to officially certify. It is imperative that organic agriculture not be monopolized by corporate organic, but remains equitable and accessible for producers of all sizes," says Brian Bates of Bear Creek Organic Farm in Petoskey, Michigan.
USDA’s unilateral defunding of this vital program flies in the face of the will of Congress, as expressed in the 2018 Farm Bill: Money for OCCSP is appropriated from the considerable NOP carryover balances from previous years. As USDA continues to virtually exclude authentic organic farmers from pandemic relief programs, the agency alleges that there is not enough funding available to reimburse organic operations at the promised levels. The math does not add up.
Since early May, National Organic Coalition (NOC) and Organic Farmers Association (OFA) have been lobbying on the hill for increased protections for organic farmers during this critical time, exhorting USDA and Congress to reimburse organic certification agencies directly for certification fees as an emergency measure during the pandemic, as well as increase the OCCSP reimbursement rate to 100% to provide producers with support during this time of crisis.
"The Organic Certification Cost-Share Program is especially important for small and mid-size organic farms," says Kate Mendenhall, Director of OFA. "If the USDA wants organic farms and our regional economies to survive and thrive, they should be making it easier to get certification cost share and covering the whole cost of certification. Instead they are doing the opposite."

New genetic engineering techniques pose numerous risks
by gmwatch, August 12, 2020
A new scientific paper published in the journal Environmental Sciences Europe gives an overview of the risks associated with gene-editing procedures (new genetic engineering) for plants and animals. The risks are not restricted to the wide range of unintended effects that can be triggered by the process of gene editing. There are also risks associated with the intended biological characteristics generated through gene editing.
Gene-editing techniques, in particular those using the CRISPR/Cas "gene scissors", increase the possibilities and speed with which the genomes of plants and animals can be altered. The study concludes that the novel, intended properties must be thoroughly tested, even if no additional genes are inserted.
