David Korten is both a change agent and an observer of change. He has written a provocative article called, :The Big Picture: 5 Ways to Know if You’re Making a Difference”.

He says that if you can answer “YES!” to ONE of the following criteria, you are making a difference.

Here are his criteria, taken from the article which you can read below:

1. Does it help discredit a false cultural story fabricated to legitimize relationships of domination and exploitation and to replace it with a true story describing unrealized possibilities for growing the real wealth of healthy communities?

2. Is it connecting others of the movement’s millions of leaders who didn’t previously know one another, helping them find common cause and build relationships of mutual trust that allow them to speak honestly from their hearts and to know that they can call on one another for support when needed?

3. Is it creating and expanding liberated social spaces in which people experience the freedom and support to experiment with living the creative, cooperative, self-organizing relationships of the new story they seek to bring into the larger culture?

4. Is it providing a public demonstration of the possibilities of a real-wealth economy?

5. Is it mobilizing support for a rule change that will shift the balance of power from the people and institutions of the Wall Street phantom-wealth economy to the people and institutions of living-wealth Main Street economies?

You, through the Natural Solutions Foundation, can answer
1. YES!!
2. YES!!
3. YES!!
4. YES!!
5. YES!! to this excellent assay of effectiveness.

Check out just a few of our accomplishments below and here, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=195. These accomplishments are yours and ours, together, because without you, there would be no meaning to our work. It is the community of empowered people that makes a difference, and that is what you, and we, are, together.

Frankly, our “Accomplishments” page is out of date because the Trustees of the Natural Solutions Foundation do not have time to get it up to date without taking time away from our rapid, profound and widely focused forward movement.

Consider: Our Codex eBook, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=220, was the first document to outline exactly how every country in the world, including, of course, the US!, could move to a higher standard for every class of food than Codex (which would not be hard!) without the dreaded World Trade Organization trade sanctions which are the club Codex waves to subdue countries that balk at degrading their food supply to make the globalists happy while their people die, just as we do, from toxic, degraded food and nutrients whose doses are so low that they have no beneficial impact worth noting – by design!

Our Codex DVD, “Nutricide“, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=156, is the lecture that has helped millions of people, including Codex delegates!, understand what Codex is about by understanding where it came from!

Our trips to the poorest countries all over the world resulted, for example, in their trusting our leadership so that we were able to block the US government’s attempt to get fluoride approved for inclusion at high levels in infant formula for normal babies at the Codex Committee for Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses (Thailand, 2007). This, alone, is a major victory in policy change!

The Natural Solutions Foundation, with its radio show, the Dr. Rima Reports, www.BlogTalkRadio.com/FreedomizerRadio, 9 PM to Midnight Eastern Standard Time, every Sunday night, is getting information out. Just look at the lineup of guests for the next couple of months! http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=4850

Our Action Items generate hundreds of thousands to millions of your emails to decision makers!

Our Blogs are widely circulated and passed from reader to reader around the world!

Our Videos, like
Nutricide, http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5266884912495233634#
Should the US Get Out of Codex? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfCni-LuR_c
The Globalist Genocidal Agenda, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8f2P4GCJL8&feature=related
and dozens of others at www.Youtube.com/NaturalSolutions give people deeply researched, and deeply important information that they can use and share, changing local and leadership opinion. They, too, are passed from person to person around the world!

Radio appearances (on shows like Alex Jones, Jeff Rense and dozens of others), documentary film appearances (like “Making a Killing, Psychiatry, Industry of Death, and two of Governor Jesse Ventura’s Conspiracy Theories episodes, and other public information activities get the word out there. Uniquely, Natural Solutions Foundation gives people meaningful actions they can take – including growing their own food at www.FoodFreedomeJournal.org, for example.

And, uniquely among all the health freedom organizations we know of, we are actually creating a project to help the farmers of the world, the consumers of the world and the governments of the world to reclaim the production of clean, unadulterated food! It is called The Valley of the Moon™ Eco Demonstration Project, www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org, and it is a major forward step for people who want to live, to farm, to help or to enjoy a truly sustainable teaching community the temperate, beautiful Highlands of Panama.

Several governments have asked us to work with them to change their food supply to a clean, unadulterated, health-promoting one and, of course, we said “YES!”

On the eve of our departure for another grueling Codex meeting. Oh, Geneva is OK as a city. There are some decently priced restaurants for locals and the lake, surrounded by mountains is pretty enough. If I had my way, though, and if General Stubblebine had his, we would stay right here in Panama working on the development of the Valley of the Moon Eco Demonstration Project, www.NaturalSolutionsFoundation.org, getting ready for the Grand Opening of the Natural Solutions Center on August 7 and 8! By the way, consider this your invitation to join us for this event! If you are on the Health Freedom Action eAlert list (sign up here: www.HealthFreedomUSA.org) you’ll get all the details.

But we cannot stay here, much as we would like to. Hundreds of thousands of people -and more – want to know what the Codex Alimentarius Commission is doing to despoil the world’s foods to bring about the perpetual war on their bodies, their health and their freedom – indeed, their very existence, that Big Pharma, WHO, Big Chema and the other genocidal, callous and much-worse-than indifferent players on the global food scene, led by the US, of course. They wait for our live radio reports, our daily Codex Video and written updates and our analysis of what is happening so they can counter it.

They know, and they take action on, the dangers that bills like S. 510, the Food Fascism Bill (named, of course, the “Food SAFETY Bill”), http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26714, will bring to them if they remain inactive. And we’ve kept this horrible bill from being voted on since November, 2009! That’s impact.

They are willing to call for a complete ban on the dangerous technology which has invaded the world’s food and non-food plant and animal life forms – including US, our DNA. By clicking on this link, rapidly growing numbers of people are protecting their future, and that of every living thing on the planet: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2049

Millions of people demanded that they have the right NOT to receive the vaccine for the absurd and fraudulent “Level 6 Pandemic” nonsense known as H1N1 or Swine Flu and the US backed off from requiring mandatory vaccination.

Now we are demanding Congressional hearings and responsibility in controlling, stopping and reversing the loss of children because of devastating environmental toxicity, including vaccines that do not work, have no science behind them and are killing us and our kids, while rendering huge numbers of us infertile, http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=3688. And we are suing the FDA to prevent more vaccines from being used which have never, ever been either tested to make sure that they are safe OR effective, let alone both. That case, the Stop The Shot Case, is a companion case to the Ear Candle Case, which we are also suing the FDA in that one, too. http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2521. You see, if they can innocuous ear candles, of which 20 million have been sold without a single meaningful adverse event, saying that they are a medical device for which there is no medical use, they can ban ANY device or nutrient claiming the same.

We backed them off this crazed behavior in March, 2008 when they first flew this particular idea to see what would happen. What happened was that we, 688,000 strong, roared NO!, HELL NO! They predictably went away and, just as predictably, came back with this absurd power-grab to make all natural health products and services illegal.

We were there that time, and we are there this time, too. By the way, your recurring tax deductible donations here, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189, are the essential lubricant which allows the health freedom wheels to keep turning. These donations are the only way that we can do this work, get to Codex, sue agencies, etc.

We are there, every time, because YOU are there. YOU are the netroots and YOU are the solution, the natural solutions. Thanks for making the Natural Solutions Foundation the largest health freedom organization in the world. And thanks for making a big, big difference.

Thanks, too, for your generous tax deductible donations. http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189
If you are not already giving the cost of a month’s worth of coffee, tea, chai, latte, cappuccino, or your other pleasure items each month, let me suggest that you do so, on a recurring basis. That’s the life-blood that keeps our brains and our other working parts pumping!!!!!

Oh, yes, two other things: first, if you use coffee for health or pleasure, you will want to taste the Valley of the Moon(TM) Coffee – FREE coffee! Coffee that we grow here in Panama to teach other farmers how to grow coffee without ANY toxic chemicals, neither herbicides like Monsanto’s Roundup(C), nor paraquat, nor Agent Orange products like 2-4D, nor pesticides or herbicides – NOTHING but sun, rain, fish meal and a 10 ingredient fermented compost! Other farmers are beginning to grow coffee this way, but there is nothing like our Valley of the Moon Coffee! Support your health and health freedom at the same time by making a tax deductible contribution and getting the healthy coffee. Oh, by the way, you can give this superb coffee as a thoughtful gift at any time of the year. Supplies are strictly limited so order NOW!

The second thing: All of this is great but without YOU as the person who disseminates this information, the Action Items and takes them once for each member of your family and then passes them along to all your contact, this information would stay the private knowledge of the few, a sort of information elite. Nice, but not effective. It is YOUR dissemination which makes this heath freedom thrust take wing and shape local, national and international policy.

It’s your world. Thanks for making us effective so that we do, in fact, make a difference!

Yours in health and freedom,

The Big Picture: 5 Ways to Know if You’re Making a Difference
David Korten

David Korten’s newly revised and greatly expanded 2nd edition of Agenda for a New Economy: From Phantom Wealth to Real Wealth, outlines an agenda to create a new kind of economy: locally-based, community oriented, and devoted to creating a better life for all.

In this special pre-publication excerpt Korten explains how to tell if your actions are helping to build the new economy that “must be lived into being from the bottom up.”

For the many millions of us working to create a better world, it is easy to feel discouraged by the seeming insignificance of even major successes relative to the scale of the problems we face as a nation and a species. Consumed by the details and challenges of our daily engagements, we may easily lose sight of the big picture of the powerful social dynamic to which our work is contributing.

Step back from time to time; take a breath, look out beyond the immediate horizon to bring that big picture back into perspective. Reflect in awe and wonder at the power of the larger social dynamic to which your work contributes.

In my career in international development, I saw, time and again, that the most successful projects were not the largest or the most carefully, centrally planned; they were the ones that arose from the bottom up. Likewise, successful social movements are emergent, evolving, radically self-organizing, and involve the dedicated efforts of many people, each finding the role that best uses his or her gifts and passions. Their scope and their success may not, at first, be readily apparent. Social movements grow and evolve around framing ideas and mutually supportive relationships instead of through top-down direction. New ideas gain traction, or not, depending on what works for those involved in the movement. Some alliances are fleeting; others endure.

The organism, not the machine, provides the appropriate metaphor. The relevant knowledge resides not in the heads of outside experts but in the people who populate the system. The challenge is to help them recognize, organize, and use that knowledge in ever more effective ways.

This is the model I think of when I think about what it will take to build the New Economy—one based on fulfilling the basic needs of people and planet—that we need. It’s also the way that that economy is already being built: step by step, in creative and surprising ways, by people looking for alternatives to a system that isn’t working for them.

To bring down the institutions of Empire, we must begin to build the rules, relationships, and institutions of a New Economy. These must be lived into being from the bottom up.

So how do you know whether your work is contributing to a big-picture outcome? If you can answer yes to any one of the following five questions, then be assured that it is.

1. Does it help discredit a false cultural story fabricated to legitimize relationships of domination and exploitation and to replace it with a true story describing unrealized possibilities for growing the real wealth of healthy communities?
2. Is it connecting others of the movement’s millions of leaders who didn’t previously know one another, helping them find common cause and build relationships of mutual trust that allow them to speak honestly from their hearts and to know that they can call on one another for support when needed?
3. Is it creating and expanding liberated social spaces in which people experience the freedom and support to experiment with living the creative, cooperative, self-organizing relationships of the new story they seek to bring into the larger culture?
4. Is it providing a public demonstration of the possibilities of a real-wealth economy?
5. Is it mobilizing support for a rule change that will shift the balance of power from the people and institutions of the Wall Street phantom-wealth economy to the people and institutions of living-wealth Main Street economies?

These are useful guidelines for setting both individual and group priorities. Bear in mind that in a systems-change undertaking of this magnitude, there is no magic bullet and no one is going to make it happen on their own, so don’t be discouraged if the world looks much the same today despite your special and heroic effort yesterday. It took five thousand years to create the mess we are in today. It will take more than a few days to set it right.

Here’s Dr. Rima’s View on Getting the US Out of Codex

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfCni-LuR_c

Natural Solutions Foundation has been an unofficial observer at many Codex Alimentarius (World Food Code) meetings world wide over the past half decade. Our presence and reports on YouTube and elsewhere have made this previously little-known UN Commission – and its degradation of the world’s food supply – a matter of intense discussion among health freedom advocates all over the world.

The US is the strongest force, and the biggest bully, in Codex. But the presence of the USA in Codex is not necessarily a positive thing, on at least two levels. On one hand, the US Government, expressed by the FDA, has a stated policy of “HARMonizing” our nutrient freedoms with international restrictions, including restrictions inherent in Codex’s insistence upon treating dietary supplements as though they were industrial toxins, while allowing all sorts of real toxins into the food supply, denigrating natural and organic products. This “HARMonization”, however, is illegal according to several statutes passed by the US Congress.

On the other hand, the presence of the US delegation, with its heavy Big Agra, Big Chema, Big Biotech and Big Biz presence, tilts the Codex process away from natural, local and sustainable food production, leading to global industrialization and degradation of the food supply, mandated under-nutrition and a host of other serious ills, creating massive food borne illnesses: Cancer, Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, Diabetes, Obesity and a host of others from which we are dying.

So the US presence may benefit neither the American people or the people of the rest of the world.

Three short, hard-hitting video reports from Dr. Rima at Codex meeting:

Report Number 1: Nutrient Reference Values (NRVs) Another Codex trick: set nutritional levels so low that everyone will be in chronic nutritional deficit – and think that it is normal. How? By food labels which teaches consumers that the daily levels are “normal intake levels” when, in fact, they are designed to have no impact on anyone, no matter how sensitive. This connects directly to S. 510, the Food Fascism Bill, and S. 3218, the Wall Street Reform Bill that contains language which can kill dietary supplements through hostile regulation. 5 minutes, 7 seconds.

Report Number 2: US wants to prevent labeling of GMOs anywhere in the world! More on health claims and NRVs. 9 minutes, 57 seconds

Report Number 3: Degrading Organic standards. What can you do about it? Plenty. Watch the video and take the Action Steps. 9 minutes, 45 seconds

Nano Silver and Mold

Is Killer Mold the Next Big Thing? The next pandemic panic? And is Nano Silver the Antidote? We are keeping a close eye on the potential for a pandemic mold, Cryptococcus gattii, possibly spotted in the north west. Some researchers are concerned that this infectious mold, with a fifty percent fatality rate, is another example of a weaponized pathogen that has been released, intentionally or not, into the public. If this mold responds to biological terrain including nano silver, silver may be a very useful nutrient to have on hand!

[Dr. Rima and Gen. Bert are at the Codex meeting in Canada, this week, starting with workshops and discussion groups. Please support this important trip HERE. Dr. Rima is posting daily video reports over the next few days, so remember to check our homepage, www.healthfreedomusa.org often!]

Here is the special link for Dr. Rima’s daily video reports:
http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=5276

There is a GMO showdown occuring at the Codex Committee on Food Labeling. But from the actions of the US delegation, you wouldn’t know it, since they do not want the phrase “Genetically Modified” in the title of the Codex guideline document that is supposed to address labeling GMO products, and GMO-Free products. Dr. Rima reviews the curious goings-on at the meeting, in her “blow by blow” video reports at http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=5276

The United States is vigorously pursuing its policy to prevent the labeling or identification of GMOs (or GMO-Free) anywhere in the world. That means that no one on this planet will be able to protect self or family from the dangers of GMO plants or animals. No one will ever be able to determine that the fact that they cannot have children is due to the GMO food they have been eating, unknowingly. Or their Cancer, or their Lupus, or the death of their babies. Without detailed traceability, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Jains and others whose religion teaches that the must not eat certain foods will ever again be able to determine that they have avoided the foods that will make them religiously impure.

Organic will cease to have any meaning whatsoever and all food will be contaminated, given sufficient time.

This is what is at stake at the Codex committee meeting beginning this weekend. Codex is the battleground for the future of food — will the pro-GMO Globalist Agenda prevail, or will enough nations stand up for their traditional agriculture and customs and refuse to engage in a false “consensus” that benefits only the Bigs — Big AgBiz, Big Pharma, Big Finance and Big Govt?

The United States FDA approves GMO foods and feeds without any safety testing of significance. Early on in the process of releasing GMOs, the company which owns the patented gene provides the FDA with whatever edited data it chooses to show that the organism is “safe”, no matter how weak, contrived or meaningless that data may be.

No further safety testing is carried out by the FDA, nor are further safety data reviewed, if they exist.

But, in the largest involuntary human experiment ever conducted, with zero informed consent possible, the world’s food, as it comes through the US food system, its seed system and its feed system, is contaminated with unlabeled, un-traceable GMOs. Any long term (or, for that matter, short term) effects will never be known because who is eating what GMO gene, promoter virus or bacterial marker sequence is totally unknowable. This is the effect of FDA refusing to require “truthful and not misleading” GMO labeling. In deed, the agency, in a true display of the arrogance of power, believes it has authority to censor even “GMO Free” labels!

2. Waxman’s Bill Threatens to Kill Dietary Supplements Through Hostile Regulation. Thousands Have eMailed Their Senators! We Need Millions!

The Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2009 (H.R. 4173), just adopted by the House of Representatives (and sent to the Senate as S.3217) includes language giving more power to the Federal Trade Commission to make general rules for interstate commerce that could be used to restrict truthful information about dietary supplements, by requiring expensive, “drug company” level clinical trials before vitamin companies could make claims about their products. This “reform” could hand-over the natural products industry to Big Pharma, which, over the past few years, has bought up most of the larger vitamin companies. The new rules could become a “barrier against entry” driving many smaller companies out of business.

We address this issue in a new Action Item telling the Senate to provide protective language for natural products which do not need the same level of substantiation (called “significant scientific agreement”) that drugs should require for public safety. The existing commercial standard of “competent and reliable scientific evidence” allows natural product marketers to rely on published literature and small-scale clinical studies appropriate for food products. As we have been warning, the attacks on Natural Solutions will continue and will escalate. BUT, YOUR CONTINUED PUSH BACK WILL PROTECT YOUR RIGHT TO ACCESS NATURAL SOLUTIONS!

Action Item: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=3142

——————————————

3. Just Days to Stop Food Fascism!

THREE Weeks and Holding: Food Fascism on the Ropes?

S.510 STILL has not made it to the floor of the Senate this week! Your continued PUSH BACK is still holding it off. Please read below and TAKE THE ACTION ITEM AGAIN! We must continue to inundate the Senate with emails to stop this travesty!

Rumor in DC is that the forced-industrialization of food production bill, S.510, will come to a vote in the Senate this week or next week. If you value local, natural food production, NOW is the time to act! Please use this Action Item and send the message to the Senate: “NO FAKE FOOD SAFETY BILL”. Demand strong, unequivocal protection for local, natural food production! Please forward this message to everyone you know and ask them to act too!

Two critically important action steps to take:

[1] Send an email to your Senators:

http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26714

[2] CALL your US Senators’ offices; Just dial 800-828-0498 and make a call registering your strongly negative opinion of S. 510! If not now, when? For 9 “talking points” about why the bill is as bad as we’ve described it, see – http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=5205

You know there is a battle going on for your mind (or maybe against it!). Part of the Globalist Agenda to reduce human population and restrict our freedoms goes on in our own heads, as we are subjected to a level of propaganda that can only be termed “mind controlling.” Its success depends on making sure that we are dumb, dull, deluded and distracted….

See the video interview with Dr. Rima and Gen. Bert: http://www.youtube.com/v/_FL3SKYVEwE

Let me quote General Bert, “‘Focus and clarity’ were the words Ralph used to describe the Cognitive Enhancement nutrients, and that is exactly what I experienced. Both my long and short term memory are enhanced by these products and my thinking processes are noticeably sharper. I am very impressed and intend to continue using them.”

There are numerous smart nutrients, but few of them, working synergistic ally, have the capability of doing what these products actually do. In this battle to take back our food, our health and our freedoms, we must all be as mentally sharp as possible. That is why the genocidal elitists want us under-nourished and unable to think. I was so impressed with these products that I immediately began to study them and their impact. I researched the ingredients and am satisfied that there is no indicia of a lack safety when used as directed. That’s when I decided to create combination packs that would support mental function without agitating; would enhance cognition without later let-down.

[3] Nano Silver,

www.Nutronix.com/naturalsolutions

Is Killer Mold the Next Big Thing? Then next pandemic panic? And is Nano Silver the Antidote? We are keeping a close eye on the potential for a pandemic mold, cryptococcus gattii, possibly spotted in the north west. Some researchers are concerned that this infectious mold, with a fifty percent fatality rate, is another example of a weaponized pathogen that has been released, intentionally or not, into the public. If this mold responds to biological terain including nano silver, silver may be a very useful nutrient to have on hand!

And this from the Sorcha Faal [who may be a Russian disinformation agent, US disinformation agent or the 79th Mother Superior of a mysterious Sisterhood… take your pick!]: “…Most important to note about [“ex”-Nazi scientist] Schaefer’s adoptive daughter Rebeca, these reports continue, is that she is one of the World’s leading researchers into the tropical fungus ‘cryptococcus gattii’, specifically its bio-engineering into a ‘weapons format’, and which makes her the ‘main suspect’ in the unleashing of this most dangerous Nazi ‘germ weapon’ upon North America during the Vancouver Winter Olympic Games, and which to date has killed over 23 people, thousands of animals, and has spread from its ‘release point’ in Canada’s British Colombia and is now reported invading the United States largest State of California…”

Health Freedom Under Increased Threat

By Administrator on May 4, 2010 No Comments

Natural Solutions Foundation The Voice of Global Health Freedom™
www.HealthFreedomUSA.org
www.GlobalHealthFreedom.org

Reports from Washington and Quebec City… The attacks on Health Freedom are coming faster and faster, and Health Freedom USA is keeping an eye on DC while Dr. Rima and Gen. Bert are in Canada at the Codex Committee on Food Labeling meeting. Please support them by using the Action Items below.

Dr. Rima’s video reports from Codex meeting here:
http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=5276

Counsel Ralph’s report from DC meetings here:
http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=5385

There is so much going on right now… the attacks by the Powers that Be are, as Bill Faloon of Life Extension Foundation stated in a recent urgent message, echoing our own concerns: “The threat of a regulatory stranglehold over dietary supplements has intensified.”

We have at least three dangerous bills pending in the US Senate, any one of which could be a real disaster for Health Freedom.

S.3002 – the happily stalled McCain bill. We pushed back against this one so hard that even McCain withdrew his support from his own bill just one month and a day after introducing it! This took about 300,000 emails. However, the Senator from Arizona is still hovering around, trying to get parts of his “HARMonization” with Codex bill terms into the other pending bills.

S.510 – the fake “Food Safety” bill. The “natural products” industry shills and astroturf groups are now backing this disaster, after promises of a Manager’s Amendment to exempt DSHEA products. NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Over a million and a half emails continue to pour in, demanding real protection in these words:

“Rule of Interpretation – No provision of this act shall be deemed to apply (a) to any home, home-business, homestead, home or community gardens, small farm, organic or natural agricultural activity, (b) to any family farm or ranch, or (c) to any natural or organic food product, including dietary supplements regulated under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994.”

Action Item: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26714

S.3217 – the Senate version of the financial institution “reform” law. California Rep Waxman included more power for the FTC to abuse in the bill that passed the house. Congress took away from FTC in the 80s its general rule making power, due to abuse. Now, in the “new” socialist DC environment, the agency is about to get the power it wants to force Dietary Supplement companies to meet drug-company substantiation standards that are totally inappropriate for food products and that could destroy small nutrient companies.

Action Item: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=3142

And the above does not include such extraordinary assaults on Health and Health Freedom as are embodied in the new nationalized illness payment system… but that’s going to get repealed sooner than its proponents can imagine! These other legislative assaults therefore demand our attention — we need millions of emails to the Senate to push back and stop them!

As all this is occurring, a Codex Alimentarius (the World Food Code) committee on nutritional labeling is meeting in Canada perhaps defining the fate of world food trade for decades to come. Health Freedom is at stake there too. See Dr. Laibow’s daily video reports from Quebec City here: http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=5276.

Health Freedom isn’t free… to be effective we need your support!

Dr. Rima introduces an interesting Bloomberg article and discusses some of the latest Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) developments in this Health Freedom USA Blog entry. Dr. Rima and Gen. Bert are traveling for the next several weeks, meeting with various food NGO and agency representatives in countries that want to protect their citizens, under the Precautionary Principle, from untested and unlabeled GMO products. This International Decade of Nutrition investigative tour will culminate at the Codex nutrition committee meeting in Canada, at the beginning of May.

Interesting Bloomberg article yesterday entitled, Big Bucks at Stake. What is remarkable is what Bloomberg recommends in the article… But first some background. The United States FDA approves GMO foods and feeds without any safety testing of significance. Early on in the process of releasing GMOs, the company which owns the patented gene provides the FDA with whatever edited data it chooses to show that the organism in is “safe”, no matter how weak, contrived or meaningless that data is.

No further safety testing is carried out by the FDA, nor are further safety data reviewed, IF they exist.

But, in the largest involuntary human experiment ever conducted, with zero informed consent possible, the world’s food, as it comes through the US food system, its seed system and its feed system, is contaminated with unlabeled, un-traceable GMOs. Any long term (or, for that matter, short term) effects will never be known because who is eating what GMO gene, promoter virus or bacterial marker sequence is totally unknowable. This is the effect of FDA refusing to require “truthful and not misleading” GMO labeling. In deed, the agency, in a true display of the arrogance of power, believes it has authority to censor even “GMO Free” labels!

At the forthcoming Codex Alimentarius Committee on Food Labeling (May 3-7, Quebec City, Canada), the US will, once again, use it might, military and economic power, to try to prevent GMO labeling anywhere in the world.

The article below neatly sums up many of the dangers we are facing if we allow GMO crops and animals, foods and feeds, to exist in our world. Because their DNA is unstable and contagious, there is, in fact, no long-term co-existence possible between non genetically modified plants, animals, insects and, indeed, people, and the modified ones. Does any company have the right to modify the genetic make up of the planet for profit and control? The Biotech industry, of which Monsanto is a particularly horrifying example (but whose horrors are shared by Bayer Crop Sciences, Syngenta, Pioneer, DuPont, Pfizer and a host of others) believe that they have bought that right by patenting genes. The science upon which these patents rest is totally inaccurate and invalid. None the less, the practice will continue unless, and until, nations and individuals take the science seriously and ban or boycott anything which contains GMO or has been fed GMO, is made with, by or trough GMO technology or profits the companies which own these patents.

But to voluntarily boycott these “Franken Foods” we need to know what products contain GMOs and what products are GMO Free. We pledge to do our due diligence best effort to recommend only GMO free products to help support the work of the Foundation.

There is little time left for those of us who believe that genes cannot be patented (since they are not “new and useful” inventions, but rather simply recombinations of existing DNA data, available in nature and free for anyone to discover) and that the biosphere itself must not be contaminated.

Through Big BioTech’s enormous marketing propaganda campaigns, which include providing large funding (through fees and grants) to industry, government and university scientists alike, tainting them all with unresolved conflicts of interest, it is very difficult to find unbiased information and Codex Alimentarius, of course, contributes to this condition by continually permitting ever-growing encroachments by industrial toxins and the like into the food chain.

Click this the link below to join global voices for a total ban on all Genetically Modified Organisms. Please take this action once for each member of your family and pass it along to every person you know, urging them to do the same.

There is a great deal that you, as an individual, can do about this direct threat to your health and future, and the future of your children. The first thing you can do is voice your rejection of contaminated foods and corrupt policies which permit and promote them.

If you are not already a member (or if you’ve not been receiving a regular weekly email from us, suggesting that your email provider may be blocking us) please join our Natural Solutions Foundation’s Health Freedom Action eAlert.

Sign up on our Home Page: www.HealthFreedomUSA.org or www.GlobalHealthFreedom.org).

The second action you can take is with your wallet: Make sure that you do not support GMO goods or companies that make it.

The third action, equally as critical as the previous two, is to disseminate this information. Contact Kathy Greene, our Volunteer Coordinator, at Kathy.Greene@usa.net and ask her for an Organizer’s Handbook, filed with helpful information about getting the word out to people who need to hear it.

Thanks for your activism. No one on the planet deserves to have their world contaminated and degraded for greed, by a hand full of ruthless death merchants.

Big Bucks at Stake
April 24, 2010 Bloomberg reports:

“At stake are the costs to farmers who produce $80.3 billion a year in corn and soybeans, used in products ranging from Coca-Cola to cattle feed to ethanol. “Monsanto has become such a dominant player in the seed business that producers have real concerns that the price they pay for seed is going to be anywhere near reasonable,” said John Crabtree, a spokesman for the Center for Rural Affairs in Lyons, Nebraska, a nonprofit group that provides services to farm communities. “The fear is that the sky’s the limit.”

These fears are not unfounded when you consider that prices on everything from the seed to the obligatory fertilizers and pesticides that are required to make the GM seeds “grow properly” have skyrocketed.

According to a report by Charles Benbrook, chief scientist at the Organic Center in Boulder, Colorado, the influx of genetically modified seed has steadily ratchet prices upward. Seed used to be fairly inexpensive, in large part due to the practice of planting seed collected and saved from the previous year. With GE seeds, this ancient farming practice is no longer employed and farmers must buy new seed each year.

The 2009 Organic Center report, titled The Magnitude and Impacts of the Biotech and Organic Seed Price Premium, states that farmers who purchase Monsanto’s Roundup Ready 2 soybeans in 2010 will pay 42 percent more per bag than they paid just last year.

This is in stark contrast to the overall rise in soybean seed prices over the last 25 years, which was 63 percent. Between the years of 1975 and 1997, soybean farmers spent four to eight percent of their farm income on seeds. Last year, those who planted GE soybeans spent 16.4 percent of their income on seeds.

The story is the same for GM corn growers, who will pay just over twice the amount for the latest eight-trait “SmartStax” corn seed, compared to those planting conventional seeds. And GE cotton seed now cost nearly 6 times more than conventional. The report shows that the GE seed price premiums FAR exceed the organic seed price premium, across the board, for various crops. This should be an eye opener for anyone who still believes genetically engineered crops are the way to inexpensively feed the world… [Emphasis added – REL]

The only one who is truly benefiting, it seems, is Monsanto, who ended their fiscal year in 2009 with revenue of $11.7 billion. Over $7 billion of that came from sales and licensing of seeds and seed genes. [Emphasis added – REL]

So, is growing GM crops REALLY in the best financial interest of most farmers? Or are they simply being hoodwinked by fancy marketing that promises increased yield and reduced pestilence? Benbrook asks the same question, and has called for further studies to evaluate whether or not GM crop yields warrant the disproportionate difference in price. If previous studies are any indication, I believe the answer is no.

GM Crops Yield Unimpressive Results

In reality, GM crops create previously unimaginable profits for sub-par performance when compared to conventional or organic crops. And when you review the potential danger these crops pose to human and environmental health, the list is so disturbing you could easily say we’re all paying for poison when we buy GM food products. [Emphasis added – REL]

After 30 years of GMO experimentation, the data to shows [All emphasis added below – REL]:

* No increase in yields; on the contrary GM soya has decreased yields by up to 20 percent compared with non-GM soya. Up to 100 percent failures of Bt cotton have been recorded in India. And studies >by scientists from the USDA and the University of Georgia in 2008 found that growing GM cotton in the U.S. can result in a drop in income by up to 40 percent.

* No reduction in pesticides use; on the contrary, USDA data shows that GM crops have increased pesticide use by 50 million pounds from 1996 to 2003 in the U.S., and the use of glyphosate [Most frequently marketed as Monsanto’s dangerous herbicide, Roundup (c) – REL] went up more than 15-fold between 1994 and 2005, along with increases in other herbicides to cope with rising glyphosate resistant superweeds.

* Roundup (C) herbicide is lethal to frogs and toxic to human placental and embryonic cells. Roundup is used in more than 80 percent of all GM crops planted in the world.

* GM crops harm wildlife, as revealed by UK and U.S. studies

* Bt resistant pests and Roundup tolerant superweeds render the two major GM crop traits useless. The evolution of Bt resistant boll-worms worldwide have been confirmed and documented.

* Vast areas of forests, pampas and cerrados have been lost to GM soya in Latin America.

* Epidemic of suicides in the cotton belt of India. According to the National Crime Records Bureau of India, more than 182,900 Indian farmers took their own lives between 1997 and 2007 as a result of failed GM crops. It estimates 46 Indian farmers commit suicide every day.
* Transgene contamination is completely unavoidable, as science has recently revealed that the genome (whether plant, animal or human) is NOT constant and static, which is the scientific base for genetic engineering of plants and animals. Instead, geneticists have discovered that the genome is remarkably dynamic and changeable, and constantly ‘conversing’ and adapting to the environment. This interaction determines which genes are turned on, when, where, by what and how much, and for how long. They’ve also found that the genetic material itself has the ability to be changed according to experience, passing it on to subsequent generations.

* GM food and feed linked to deaths and sicknesses both in the fields in India and in lab tests around the world.

How Can YOU Stop Monsanto from Ruling, and Ruining, the Food Supply?

Allowing Monsanto to monopolize the market could have lethal consequences for all of us. Because not only is Monsanto doing what it can to eliminate competition from other agricultural biotech products, their end game is to do away with conventional seeds, period. As I’ve discussed in many previous articles, this is a threat to human civilization and would spell disaster for the entire planet. Fortunately, you don’t have to be directly involved in the legal or political end of the battle.

You, as an ordinary citizen, still have the power to make perhaps an even GREATER difference in how business will pan out for Monsanto – by steering the market demand toward non-GMO crops and foods. Every time you choose to buy a non-GMO product over a product that contains GM ingredients, you are making a dent in the empire that is Monsanto.

While you’re waiting for the leaders of the world to catch up, take advantage of local sources of organic foods as often as you can. You can also avoid GM foods by:

* Reducing or Eliminating Processed Foods. Some 75 percent of processed foods contain GM ingredients. Use the Non-GMO Shopping Guide, available for free at www.NonGMOShoppingGuide.com.

* Read produce and food labels. When looking at a product label, if any ingredients such as corn flour and meal, dextrin, starch, soy sauce, margarine, and tofu (to name a few) are listed, there’s a good chance it has come from GM corn or soy,unless it bears the USDA organic seal.

* Buy organic produce. Buying organic is currently the best way to ensure that your food has not been genetically modified.
