GMO? Oh HELL No !
It all began innocently enough I suppose; back when we humans first began growing our own food. After harvest farmers would save their seeds for the next growing season; often hand picking the best and most vibrant looking seeds to ensure a bountiful crop. Eventually a few farmers and naturalists observed naturally occurring plant hybrids and this gave them the idea to experiment with combining different species of plants themselves. Then in 1900 Gregor Mendel's genetic theory was used to manipulate plant species in a process called “Classic Selection”- the cross breeding of plant DNA, to get the desired results. The following year a fellow named John Francis Queeny founded a little chemical company in Creve Couer, Missouri, and named it Monsanto.
It wasn't long before this little sprout of a chemical company became a growing corporation, which then bloomed into a mighty multinational agricultural biotech corporation. By the '40's, Monsanto had become a major producer of plastics including polystyrene and synthetic fibers, (for Chemtrails). Then in 1953 James Watson and Francis Crick publish their discovery of the 3D-double-helix structure of DNA. This discovery eventually leads to the ability to actually splice together, genes from differing organisms. 20 Years later, in 1973 Herbert Boyer and Stanley Cohen create the first successful recombinant DNA organism.
