Big Oil Refuses to Negotiate Safety Bargain With Union Despite Deadly Accidents
The United Steel Workers (USW) union announced Tuesday an attempt to reopen safety negotiations with the oil industry as tempers rage over a string of deadly explosions at oil refineries in recent months. Shell Oil, the industry leader that represents oil interests in pattern negotiations with the USW, said the industry wasn't interested, according to the USW. USW Vice President Gary Beevers, head of the union's oil sector, formally asked oil industry representatives to reopen safety negotiations involved in the National Oil Bargaining (NOB) pattern. During an emergency meeting in June with United Mine Workers of America, Beevers said the USW was forced to withdraw from health and safety negotiations last year "when it became clear the corporations had no intention of talking seriously about safety." The USW called the April and May a "tragic" time for the oil industry, which saw 13 fires, 25 injuries and 19 deaths of workers in oil refineries, including the 11 victims of the Deepwater Horizon disaster off the gulf coast.. » read more

Transgenics: Forbidden Technologies of an Ancient Sin?
Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World (1932) has been described as “one of the most bewitching and insidious works of literature ever written” Is his work of science-fiction and of engineering paradise coming to pass? Read on… I have been carrying out some continued research of several key sites on the continuing ‘scary’ developments being proposed by transgenics. I am alarmed at the strides of the new medical-gods wanting to produce, ‘all in the name of medicine and science’, new and improved super species. How does this fit into an eschatological framework? Precisely in the arena of species manipulation and the emerging hybridization of the plant, animal, and human. It appears, at least from the reputable sites that it is still at an early stage of development. But if the trend goes unchecked science may end up producing corrupted and horrible creatures.. » read more
Giant salmon will be first GM animal available for eating
A salmon that grows at twice the normal rate is set to be the first genetically modified (GM) animal available for human consumption. Usually Atlantic salmon do not grow during the winter and take three years to fully mature. But by implanting genetic material from an eel-like species called ocean pout that grows all year round, US scientists have managed to make the fish grow to full size in 18 months. They hope that the sterile GM salmon can offer an efficient and safe way to breed salmon in fish farms, so that the wild fish can be left in the oceans. US watchdog the Food and Drug Administration is currently considering whether the GM Atlantic salmon, called AquAdvantage, is safe to eat.. » read more

Obama's USDA to deceive Americans over GM crops
(NaturalNews) The Obama administration's Department of Agriculture (USDA) is attempting to downplay the risks of genetically modified alfalfa, a crop previously banned by numerous federal courts. In 2007, a federal court rejected the Bush USDA's approval of alfalfa plants genetically engineered for resistance to the Monsanto herbicide Roundup. The court ruled that the USDA had not properly considered the risks posed by the crop. These risks included the possibility that the genetically modified (GM) crops could swap genetic material with related species, thus contaminating neighboring fields or producing non-agricultural "super weeds." Monsanto continues to appeal the decision, even though the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled against it twice.. » read more
GENETICALLY MODIFIED SOY LINKED TO STERILITY, INFANT MORTALITY
"This study was just routine," said Russian biologist Alexey V. Surov, in what could end up as the understatement of this century. Surov and his colleagues set out to discover if Monsanto's genetically modified (GM) soy, grown on 91% of US soybean fields, leads to problems in growth or reproduction. What he discovered may uproot a multi-billion dollar industry. After feeding hamsters for two years over three generations, those on the GM diet, and especially the group on the maximum GM soy diet, showed devastating results.. » read more
YouTube censors video interview with Jeffrey Smith about GMOs
(NaturalNews) Within hours after posting our video interview with Jeffrey Smith, creator of Seeds of Deception and author of Genetic Roulette, YouTube pulled the video. Attempts to play the video are now met with the following message: "This video has been removed due to terms of use violation." That is, of course, an outright lie. This video features myself (the Health Ranger) talking with Jeffrey Smith about the health dangers of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) at the recent Health Freedom Expo. NaturalNews staff filmed the segment, and we used intro music legally licensed from a music production company.. » read more
