Council overturns mayor’s veto, GMO bill SAVED-green flag!!!
VLA comment: At one time we had a copy of the hearing on GMOs in the early day. The Hawaiian Islands were posed to the Congress as “most important” to the Biotech companies because it is the place to grow the seed stock. It will be very interesting to see how this turns out. So far we can’t find the governor’s response. HMMM!

NATURAL NEWS: TRUE HORRORS OF PET FOOD REVEALED
Dr. Becker: How to Know If the Poultry in Your Pet’s Food Is Chicken… or Roadkill
Mike Adams, Natural News:
The true horrors of pet food revealed: Prepare to be shocked by what goes into dog food and cat food
Excerpt: Pet food manufacturers add dangerous preservatives and vitamin fortifications that actually make your pets’ food less healthy.
“Chicken by-products include head, feet, entrails, lungs, spleen, kidneys, brain, liver, stomach, bones, blood, intestines, and any other part of the carcass not fit for human consumption,” writes Henry Pasternak in Healing Animals with Nature’s Cures. Ann M. Martin describes the process in Food Pets Die For: “At the rendering plant a machine slowly grinds the entire mess in huge vats. Then this product is cooked at temperatures between 220 degrees Fahrenheit and 270 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes to one hour. The mixture is centrifuged (spun at a high speed) and the grease (or tallow) rises to the top and it is removed from the mixture. Read more…
10/08/13 NY Times: Hawaii: GMO Breeding Ground
Excerpt: The companies are supported by those who say the seed business is vital to the economy. Seeds are Hawaii’s leading agricultural commodity, contributing $264 million to the economy and 1,400 jobs, according to a study commissioned by the companies.
“Almost any corn seed sold in the U.S. touches Hawaii somewhere” in its development, said Mark Phillipson, an executive of Syngenta, a Swiss seed and agrochemical company. Mr. Phillipson is also president of the Hawaii Crop Improvement Association, which represents the seed companies.
VLA comment: I wonder what the income from total “Tourism” Hawaii Sets Aug. Record With $339M Hotel Revenue…which they will lose by & by keeping on this GMO track. Unfortunately right from the beginning in Congress, corporations like DuPont asked for support to make Hawaii their seed breeding ground. They told Congress at a hearing that it was very important to the overall plan to have Hawaii. The overall plan is Global governance and Global currency of which the United States will have a big piece of the currency pie which will be organized by “resources” because the US has strategized over the years to own the world food supply. Which is more important to our government and the global elite – vacationing in Kauai smoking a joint or money?
14 year old debates Monsanto shill on TV and wins!
First is the challenge in her school auditorium. (take a minute or two)
The rest is the TV show…fabulously articulate.
O’Leary kept on wanting her to admit that she was against “science” and therefore against saving hurt and starving children all over the world. The whole debate was great, however, when it came to science… and why Monsanto’s science shouldn’t have carte blanche on producing these foods is because GMO crops transfer genes to nature’s time honored organic crops, destroying there integrity. This would have been a good come back reason for “not allowing” science to proceed out of the lab or experimental stage.
