This Wednesday, our allies at @ausfoodsov are hosting us for a discussion of the impacts of new technologies such as gene editing and digital agriculture on food sovereignty. We hope you can join us! eventbrite.com.au/e/solidarity-s… #agroecology #GMOs

Activists in India are in profound peril. Farmers. Labour organizers. Climate strikers. Modi's Hindu nationalism has merged with the fearsome power of Silicon Valley to spread hate, on the one hand, and invade privacy on the other. My new investigation: interc.pt/3sxCTP3

Big tech's surveillance capitalism is an ongoing threat, but when this power is in the hands of right wing governments like Modi's, it puts activists in serious danger.

And neither should the Australian food regulator @FSANZnews - but given that their advisory group is stacked with biotechnology scientists with serious conflicts of interest they almost certainly will. #GMO #AusPol

The EU must not de-regulate gene-edited crops and foods euractiv.com/section/agricu… And neither should the UK! (Article by scientist who uses gene-editing and understands the dangers) ⚠️

The consultation [on deregulating the gene-editing of crops and animals] was launched just days after the end of the Brexit transition period and in the middle of a pandemic.. Is it possible that the government doesn’t want a lot of people to respond to this?

It's great US researchers' are calling for more transparency on gene-editing. But responsibility for delivering it lies firmly with the gene-edited crop developer. It shouldn't fall to the public, NGOs or academics to fill in the gaps created by the secrecy of the GMO industry!

Obviously, if you want to know how to "achieve sustainability" & regenerate agriculture, you turn to the CEO of an agrichemical giant that's devastated the natural world with the likes of #neonics, #atrazine, and the worst of the worst of toxic #pesticides (think paraquat) 🙄

Heard how they want to use gene drives to eliminate entire wild species? Now it’s to deliberately redirect the evolution of other wild species by gene-editing them. Soon there won’t be any ‘wild’ left. #CRISPR #GeneDrive #NewGMO

Let me be clear: when I speak on "regenerative agriculture"-I'm talking about a systems-scale change in our approach to agriculture. Not just cover crops, compost, rotational grazing, ad-hoc on one farm. The whole of regenerative ag is equal to more than its constituent parts

Earth Bank of Codes was announced at #WEF 2018, providing open access to the DNA of all living creatures that have been sequenced. But what does it mean for biodiversity if we prioritize genetic codes over living diversity? Davos Diaries Ep. 3 @PopuliBot botpopuli.net/the-davos-diar…

Along w/ Biden climate news, some thoughts on solar geoengineering (SG) research under Biden Admin. SG closer to Biden/Democratic politics than Trump/Conservative: science-based, multilateral “green” capitalism. Recent moves indicate SG steadily moving into climate policy: THREAD
