Dear Monsanto,

do not kill my bees. you gave them mites. your toxins. spread over acres unfolded. spines in my shins.

If they don't stop, we are gonna seriously miss our bees.

It's estimated that one out of every three bites of food you eat relies on bees for its production.

Eliminate the bees, and your diet will severely change.

I admit I am somewhat understated from time to time, but you're preachin to the choir, Brother.

Honey will be a hot commodity!!

I won't be shocked if they use the 'emergency' to make honey production a Monsanto only market.

But Monsanto is part of the establishment that gives you your facts.

Monsanto says their products are perfectly safe and anyone who says otherwise is a 'conspiracy theorist'.

And Hillary is a big booster of Monsanto.

What a conundrum for poor little authoritarian Phrodeau.

THANKS OBAMA!!!

That would not surprise me at all.

I vaguely recall when Donald Trump retweeted something negative about Monsanto. Then he deleted it and blamed an intern for it, because he's so anti-Monsanto.

The only people who give a fuck about his views on Monsanto are the ones voting for Clinton.

Question is why don't they hold (D) feet to the fire instead of saying "But republicans love them!!" as some sort of lame justification for their champions of progress when they turn out to not be very progressive??

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

I guess because I went to school in Leave it to Beaver land that I remember the predator prey cycles...


With fewer bees you get fewer mites which leads to bee population recoveries.


Plus, you've offered no proof of your claim.


Was the source Alex Jones?

Why not both?

(CNN) Sep 2, 2016 Millions of honeybees lie dead in South Carolina after being sprayed with an insecticide targeting Zika-carrying mosquitoes.

"On Saturday, it was total energy, millions of bees foraging, pollinating, making honey for winter," beekeeper Juanita Stanley said. "Today, it stinks of death. Maggots and other insects are feeding on the honey and the baby bees who are still in the hives. It's heartbreaking."

Stanley, co-owner of Flowertown Bee Farm and Supply in Summerville, South Carolina, said she lost 46 beehives -- more than 3 million bees -- in mere minutes after the spraying began Sunday morning.

"Those that didn't die immediately were poisoned trying to drag out the dead," Stanley said. "Now, I'm going to have to destroy my hives, the honey, all my equipment. It's all contaminated."

The county used a product called Trumpet, which contains the pesticide naled, recommended by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for control of adult Aedes aegypti, the mosquito that transmits Zika.

"This wasn't about the honey," she said. "It was about raising bees and selling them to other people, and spreading the honey girls out there into the world. Now, I can't help anyone anymore, because all of them are dead."

Do mosquitoes contribute anything to the ecosystem? If they were wiped off the face of earth tomorrow would there be any negative consequences?

What about ticks? I know lyme disease has made a comeback recently in the NE area and is spreading.

Mosquitoes larvae are a big source of food for aquatic animals. Baby bass and pickerel for two. Tadpoles as well. That interconnected chained circle of life.

Some say yes, some say no.

If we can't act on climate change which has a much stronger scientific consensus, and if we can't keep hundreds of valued species from extinction, we have no justification for shifting resources in order to wipe out mosquitoes or ticks.

Everything eats everything else. Kill-off something, and many more starve to death.

Little bugs have littler bugs
That sit upon and bite-em
And littler bugs have littler still
And so, ad infinitum​

Question for vegans: Why is it immoral for humans to eat animals, but okay for animals to eat humans?

 

[BotanyBoy]

Why not both?

Because both are getting paid.

Why would pol's burn the gravy train?

At least (R)'s are honest about their love for the gravy train.

GMO labeling? That was just a campaign promise....fuck even trying to block Monsanto from buying more power from congress.

Morals, ethics and integrity are totally overrated.

Fuck the working class, (D) branding is good enough to not worry about them.

(D)... it's all that really matters.
