Monsanto wins prestigious World Food Prize | True Activist

WTF???????

If you thought the world couldn´t get any crazier, news this week that a Monsanto executive is to receive the World Food Prize for its services to agriculture might make you think again.

Robert T Fraley, Executive Vice President of Monsanto, along with Mary Dell Chilton, founder of biotech giant Syngenta, have been announced as this year´s winners for the prestigious food prize, which has a $250,000 reward. Fraley, who has been with Monsanto throughout much of its dark history, is being lauded for his invention of GMOs, while Chilton is applauded for spending “the last three decades overseeing the implementation of the new technology she developed and further improving it to be used in the introduction of new and novel genes into plants.”

Great work Mary, I´m sure your grandkids will be proud.

This has to be a joke, right? Just like when Obama won the Peace Prize, upon reading this article I had to check my calendar to make sure it wasn´t April Fool´s day. The accolades are set to be given to these cretinous executives on World Food Day, October 16. If this insane plan goes ahead without a public backlash, we will be rewarding CEOs who have systematically:

Monopolized our food and driven millions of farmers into poverty

Designed dangerous artificial growth hormones for dairy cows

Created franken-seeds and prohibited investigation into their long-term effects

Tried to block the labelling of GMO foods

Patented food in a sickening attempt to own nature itself (Hey, Monsanto! I grow my own broccoli, what you gonna do about it?)

Enforcing these patents by suing and threatening smallholders and family farmers who violate Monsanto´s iron rule

Caused mass suicide among millions of farmers whose GM crops fail

Invented pesticides that kill bees and endangered other wildlife

And later had the audacity to launch legal action against the European Union after it finally banned bee-killing pesticides in May this year.

And so on, to infinity and beyond. We could be here all day (soya, roundup, cotton, aspartame, take your pick of the rest…)

Apparently, the prize “emphasizes the importance of a nutritious and sustainable food supply for all people”. So why, World Food Prize people, why? Well, it might have something to do with the fact that Monsanto paid them a $5 million bribe- sorry, donation- back in 2008 to win legitimacy they could never have found otherwise.

The good news is that 81 councilors of the World Future Council have reacted in anger to the prizewinner announcement, rightly accusing the World Food Prize foundation of betraying its purpose.

Maybe if you didn't come across so condescending, you wouldn't get remarks like this.
