Monsanto & GM approvals

I have been sitting on this information for several weeks now. Un-sure of how to present it to thousands of people, I have spent many hours becoming familiar with the project. It is an amazing piece of work that I have been navigating like a video game of sorts. I am offering this to all of you now so that everyone has an idea of what is going on in our World, Nation, States, Cities, and Towns behind closed doors.

I have started everyone with Monsanto’s Map. Each line draws a connection to another company. Each chair is yet another connection. Everything is “clickable” as well as allowing you to move the screen…Yes that’s correct, tap your mouse of the screen and drag it left right down up, and you will see the map expand.
After you become familiar with the idea of what you are navigating, Take your attention to the left hand side of the page. There you will find a world of links that you can learn to use individually. As an example, If you click on “companies” Box A and Box B will appear. You can then scroll on a list of companies to choose to see if they are connected to each other.

Please be patient when the program loads, after you watch the introduction, you will without a doubt know what you are seeing in front of your own eyes.

Enjoy.
I encourage everyone to SHARE… PLEASE DO NOT SEPARATE THE LINKS!!!! I worked very hard on this post so that everyone understood what they were looking at.

GM APPROVALS GLOBALLY

 

PARAGUAY

MON531
( MON-ØØ531-6 )
Bollgard ™ insect protected cotton Cotton line MON531 was genetically engineered to resist cotton bollworm, tobacco budworm and pink bollworm by producing its own insecticide. This line was developed by introducing the cry1Ac gene, isolated from the common soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis into a cotton line by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The cry1Ac gene produces the insect control protein Cry1Ac, a delta-endotoxin that act by selectively binding to specific sites localized on the lining of the midgut of susceptible insect species.

INDIA

BNLA-601
The GM cotton line contains cry1Ac gene contained in the publicly-bred cotton variety named Bikaneru Nerma (BN). It was approved for commercial release in the North, Central and South cotton growing areas in India during the Kharif, 2008. This is the first indigenous Bt cotton event developed by the Central Institute of cotton Research (CICR) and the University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, Karnataka. The approval of this Bt cotton helped the farmers in varietal growing areas which were previously disadvantaged because they were unable to benefit from the insect resistant Bt cotton hybrids cultivated widely across all three cotton growing areas.
Event-1
Event-1 is a transgenic cotton line transformed with a modified cry1Ac gene that encodes insecticidal crystalline Cry1Ac delta-endotoxin protein, derived from the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki strain HD73. The introduced cry1Ac gene confers resistance to Helicoverpa armigera (American Bollworm), Pectinophora gossypiella (Pink Bollworm) and Earis vittella (Spotted Bollworm).

Event 3272
( SYN-E3272-5 )
Maize containing thermostable alpha-amylase (for optimised bioethanol production) through introduction of the amy797E gene from Thermococcales (thermostable bacterium), encoding a thermostable alpha-amylase.
This enzyme splits starch into smaller sugar subunits (saccharification). Splitting starch into sugar is the first step in producing bioethanol from plants. Plants like maize naturally contain their own amylases. They get destroyed, however, when maize is subjected to high temperatures for ethanol production. Typically, supplemental amylase preparations must be added. Heat stable amalyse expressed in 3273 makes this step unnecessary.
