A new study by a team of scientists led by Dr Monika Krüger has revealed that Glyphosate (Roundup) is toxic to the normal metabolism of dairy cows. (more…)
Dr Huber: Glyphosate Could Cause Bee Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD)
There have been discussions about neonicotinoids, poor nutrition, Nosema, and mysterious viruses causing bee colony collapse disorder (CCD). Now plant pathologist Dr. Don Huber has pointed a finger at glyphosate as a possible cause of CCD in a paper

Dr Traavik: Low Levels of Roundup Toxic to Aquatic Invertebrate Daphnia Magna
Low levels of glyphosate based herbicide induced significant negative effects on the aquatic invertebrate Daphnia magna. Glyphosate herbicides such as brands of Roundup, are known to be toxic to daphnids. However, published findings on acute toxicity show significant discrepancies and variation

Dr. Tabashnik: Five Pest Species Immune to Bt poisons in GMO Corn and Cotton
As of 2010, five of 13 major pest species had become largely immune to the Bt poisons in GMO corn and cotton, compared to just one species in 2005, scientists report in this study. (more…)
Dr. Judy Carman: Evidence of GMO Harm in Pig Study
A groundbreaking new study shows that pigs were harmed by the consumption of feed containing genetically modified (GM) crops. (more…)
Dr Krista B. Oke: GM Salmon Can Breed with Wild Trout
Genetically modified salmon can breed with wild trout to produce a new fast growing fish that can harm natural species, scientists have warned. (more…)
Dr Mezzomo: Bt Toxins Toxic to Blood of Mice
This study explores the toxicity of Bt proteins in mammals. The study shows that the Bt toxins Cry1Aa, Cry1Ab, Cry1Ac or Cry2A have toxic effects in the blood of mice. (more…)
Dr. Krüger: Roundup Suppresses Growth of Beneficial Gut Bacteria
Glyphosate-based herbicides such as Roundup were shown in this study to suppress the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, leading to the overgrowth of extremely pathogenic bacteria. (more…)
Dr Pleasants: Roundup Ready GM Crops Cause Monarch Butterfly Decline
Genetically engineered corn and soybeans make it easy for farmers to eradicate weeds, including the long-lived and unruly milkweed. But they might be putting the monarch butterfly in peril. (more…)
GM Bt Cotton Contains Poison that Benefits Aphid Boom
Genetically modified Bt cotton plants contain a poison that protects them from their most significant enemies. As a result, these plants rely less on their own defence system. This benefits other pests, such as aphids. These insights stem from
