Hi Friend, Big news from the U.S. and Mexico! The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) has announced that genetically engineered (GE) crops and bee and bird-toxic neonicotinoid pesticides will be banned in National Wildlife Refuges. The ruling impacts more than 150 million acres of federal land. Find out more here. Meanwhile, beekeepers in Mexico’s Yucatán peninsula are celebrating a major victory over Monsanto. A district judge withdrew the corporate giant’s permit to plant genetically engineered Roundup-ready soybeans on 625,000 acres of cropland. The judge was convinced by scientific evidence demonstrating that GMO crops pose a major threat to honey production. This is huge for the birds and the bees. And for us. Get the whole story here. Yours for healthy people & a healthy planet,
 Ocean Robbins P.S. Monsanto, Bayer, and the other corporate purveyors of pesticides and GMOs would like to keep selling their products, and they keep trying to downplay the harm they cause. But increasing numbers of scientists are sounding the alarm. And now even some governments are beginning to listen. Get the whole story now.
