By Rainforest Rescue with Ecological Internet No Biomass/No Burning! Truly renewable energy must be defined as including no energy production or climate mitigation claims from food based agrofuels, live plants and ecosystems, or burning biomass of any type. TAKE ACTION HERE NOW! As the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is belatedly gaining recognition within the [...] Guess the next country to get sued is France since it is also banning MON810 … How money is more important then hman health. And the so called reason for using mon 810 are complete lies since it doesn’t produce more then conventional seeds.
