According
to Natural
News, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Department of
Agriculture (USDA) are preparing to approve a powerful new herbicide, as well
as three genetically modified organisms (GMOs) engineered to resist it, that
has not been adequately examined for either safety or effectiveness. And at
least 50 members of Congress have written a letter to the two agencies, urging
them to reject the chemical concoction, known as Enlist Duo, which threatens to
increase 2, 4-D usage by as much as 700 percent, leading to massive
environmental and human health destruction.
Final
approval for Enlist Duo and the three GMOs has yet to be granted, but the two
agencies have made clear their intent to ignore the more than 300,000 public
comments they've received so far, most of which are in opposition to the
chemical products, by approving them anyway. The EPA and USDA are also ignoring
the complete lack of science behind the products, which will only increase
chemical usage and further the spread of weeds and pests that are resistant to
both glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, and 2,4-D, a component of
the chemical weapon Agent Orange.
The
50 members of Congress who oppose Enlist Duo and the three GMOs expressed their
"grave concern" about "the multiple adverse human health,
environmental, agronomic and socioeconomic harms that approval of 2,4-D crops
will likely cause" in a letter to EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy and
Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack, the founder and former chair of the
Governor's Biotechnology Partnership. The letter also noted that the USDA's own
Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) projects a massive increase
in 2,4-D usage by 2020 as a result of Enlist Duo approval.

Orange Food Disorder, AOFD, is an ongoing mutation of cells from consuming
pesticide regularly. In other words, it
is the cumulative effect of consuming toxins over time. This type of cancer is
not contagious and is not inherited; rather, it is created inside the body and
perpetuated, until it's often too late to defeat, or so "chronic care
management" would want us to believe.
