GMOs threaten Monarch Butterflies

Adult Monarch on milkweed I planted in my yard. Photo: Sally KneidelI was very sad that California’s Proposition 37 failed to pass in the Nov 6 election. The proposition would have required labeling of all genetically-modified foods and would have prohibited “all-natural” labeling of such foods. We desperately need government action regarding GMOs and I was hopeful this was the beginning. Well, it is a beginning in a way, because 46.9{967bf23b37ec6a673a83041540b3f904a815b4119ddf673afb961c1e7592ebdd} of California voters voted to pass the Proposition. It probably would’ve passed, if not for the…

The Fake Meat Race

It is looking increasingly likely that the first fake meat could be on our plates within the next couple of years. Scientists are being driven to create commercially viable artificial meat by 30th June 2012 due to a cash prize of $1 million being offered by PETA. The rules for this are simple. The meat must be a chicken substitute, and must be created in vitro (essentially this must literally be chicken meat grown in a test tube). The ‘meat’ must be grown in a quantity that is sufficient to be commercially viable and can be sold at a reasonable price …
