They make some good points but they come off as crystal-loving nut bars that its impossible to take what they are saying seriously.
Yes Bees are dying off. We need to find a way to save them.
Boycotting Genetically modified food is not the answer. GMO Food can be resistant to pests thereby yielding a bigger crop so less people have to starve. It also keeps the price of food down so parents can more easily afford healthy vegetables for their children instead of eating out at much cheaper McDonalds.
GMO also makes it easier for local famers to produce more food without having to use as much pesticide, and food from Local farms means less transportation costs and less CO2 in the atmosphere.
Is it perfect? No. Is it dangerous? Possibly, but thats what research is for. I'm sick of all of these anti-progress / anti-science nitwits who scare themselves into blindness and then try to do the same to others. They need to read some fucking books and then shut the fuck up.
