Genetic Evolution and It’s Impact on Mankind
At the beginning of the 19 century, science made man capable of creating stronger agricultural production. Genetically modified organisms (GMO’s) became the most magnificent tool for human kind. Bigger crops, bigger fruit, and bigger vegetables were produced by the same plant or tree, doubling and tripling the amount of food and timber. Hunger was slowly becoming resolved, farmers had to work less to produce more, almost doubling their income. GMO’s helped eradicate hunger and poverty around the world, and Nobel prizes were given away to its creators with fanfare.
What a great genetic discovery! At first, genetics were good….then all of the sudden industrialization came and food became commercialized to the big corporations.
Science continued to work harder. Vegetables were better-looking, weather and plagues didn’t affect the production any more. Within years, these lands started to require stronger pesticides and fungicides and natural alterations began happening. The land became addicted to artificial fertilizers, plagues became immune to plague killers, and science once more found the answer; stronger chemicals and stronger machinery. This lead to more expensive bills, leaving small farmers unable to pay such a huge bills. Land soon became property of large agricultural companies which became the heroes of society. This is how these changes occurred.
Now, crops are no longer “natural.” Pesticides are ruling the earth, genetic mutations are currently happening. Buy an orange in the streets and you will find it less juicy and it has a strange flavor. This is all because they have been affected by all kinds of genetically modified organisms containing the same recipes that have affected cattle corn, soy trees for timber etc.
Many diseases and tumors are believed to be formed by particles remaining from the petrochemicals used to genetically modify our food sources.
Now let’s talk about human latest evolution through GMO’s. Asthma, colds, allergies, infections, headaches, muscle pain and all other common pains humans want to avoid. Again science came to the rescue, providing humans with a quick answer on pills. Antibiotics become the “it” option and humans were able to go on with their lives with less pain. Soon, humans became dependent on this solutions and pharmaceutical corporations became bigger. Investing in them become a great business, and medicine start popping up everywhere. Users were addicted and humans evolved allowing genetic mutations to occur.
As a result, people are loosing their original genes that fight bacteria. People are evolving into modern medicine addicts creating an ever-booming pharmaceutical business disregarding the future consequences for the human population. Health has simply become a booming business. As of today year 2010, the scientific predictions are pointing to the future outburst of epidemics, and pandemics such as avian flu or swine flu. There is no question that in the coming decades, human health is absolutely uncertain.
Join the cause.
