Using a process called RNA interference, Monsanto\u2019s RNAi plant will supposedly kill pesky rootworms when they come along to chomp on them- but what else will these genetically modified crops do to beneficial bugs, the soil, and human health? The EPA has no idea, because they haven\u2019t done a single trial on RNAi-altered crops.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><\/p>\n<aside id=\"text-12\" class=\"widget widget_text amr_widget\">\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, the EPA\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenmedinfo.com\/blog\/gmo-agenda-takes-menacing-leap-forward-epa-s-silent-approval-monsantodow-s-rnai-0\">quietly<\/a>\u00a0gave Monsanto a Get-Out-of-Jail-Free card by allowing them to move forward with their genetically modified corn strain. Some are calling this a genetic weapon, in its infancy. Others are concerned that RNAi will have ramifications for the biosphere that \u2013 just like all of Monsanto\u2019s other products \u2013 don\u2019t come to light for years to come.<\/p>\n<p>For instance,\u00a0the National Honey Bee Advisory Board\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2014\/01\/28\/business\/energy-environment\/genetic-weapon-against-insects-raises-hope-and-fear-in-farming.html\">said<\/a>\u00a0in comments submitted to the E.P.A. before a \u201cmeeting\u201d in which this controversial genetic technology was to be reviewed,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong><em>\u00a0To attempt to use this technology at this current stage of understanding would be more na\u00efve than our use of DDT in the 1950s.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While the corn rootworm is one of the most expensive pests in agriculture it is having a hey day because corn \u2013 the genetically modified kind \u2013 is the\u00a0<strong>number one crop in the U.S.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>GM corn has taken over thousands of other possible crops we could be growing, in field after field of mono-cropped, industrial agriculturally influenced support of the Standard American Diet \u2013\u00a0<strong>up to 70 percent<\/strong>\u00a0of which\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/margie-kelly\/genetically-modified-food_b_2039455.html\">contain corn products<\/a>\u00a0(high fructose corn syrup, corn solids, etc.)<\/p>\n<p>We also\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ethanol_fuel_in_the_United_States\">heavily subsidize genetically modified corn<\/a>\u00a0to be used not as food, but as a\u00a0<strong>gasoline additive<\/strong>. Ethanol accounts for a few thousand acres of those GM corn crops we\u2019re growing, too.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>RNAi \u2013 Gene Silencing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Another big problem with Monsanto getting a green light on this crop is that RNAi is a form of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2409047\/\">gene silencing<\/a>. What is true for petunias isn\u2019t necessarily true for people. If we were to silence the gene that makes a pigment in a flower so it can attract bees, for example, this could end up in our own bodies, silencing our own genetic make-up in ways we don\u2019t expect.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Regalado, one researcher who helped discover RNAi describes it this way,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>The cells of plants and animals carry their instructions in the form of DNA. To make a protein, the sequence of genetic letters in each gene gets copied into matching strands of RNA, which then float out of the nucleus to guide the protein-making machinery of the cell. RNA interference, or gene silencing, is a way to destroy specific RNA messages so that a particular protein is not made.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Might not an alteration to the foods we eat, also have the possibility of\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.motherjones.com\/food\/2015\/08\/coming-farm-field-near-you-gene-silencing-pesticides-rna-rnai\/\">affecting our own DNA<\/a>? We know now that proteins are even more important than some scientists previously assumed for signaling certain instructions for genes to carry out their intended purpose.<\/p>\n<p>The very same\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nature.com\/nrd\/journal\/v11\/n5\/full\/nrd3674.html\">institutions studying RNAi<\/a>\u00a0will admit that protein alteration can epigenetically\u00a0<strong>create<\/strong>\u00a0or destroy\u00a0<strong>disease<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If Big Ag Giants Monsanto, and Dow (cooperating to make this RNAi corn a reality) continue in their successful attempts to get\u00a0DvSnf7 corn (to be called SmartStax Pro) into our food supply, we have no idea what mayhem might ensue.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><b>Read more articles by\u00a0<\/b><a href=\"http:\/\/wakingtimes.com\/category\/contributors\/christina-sarich\"><b><i>Christina Sarich.<\/i><\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wakingtimes.com\/ads\/cosmicordering.html\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jewworldorder.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/480x60-5.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h6>About the Author<\/h6>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wakingtimes.com\/category\/contributors\/christina-sarich\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Christina Sarich<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is a staff writer for\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wakingtimes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Waking Times<\/a>.
