Monsantos Triple Hybrid Genetically Modified Corn and its Affect on Bees

In Germany, where they still teach science they published an article about the toxic nature of Monsantos Triple Hybrid genetically modified(GM) corn and it's effect on bees in '05.

Why won't the media here mention that GM corn may be one of the likely causes of the bees disapearing?

Could it be that Monsanto is a massive multinational Corporation with a market capitalization of 30 billiondollars.

It is unfortunate that insects are seen as pests by most people. Most people who passed Earth Science class in High School understand that every part of the food chain is important and some, but not most, understand that bees perform a task that is vital to our survival.
As already mentioned in a previous email, Albert Einstein once predicted that if bees were to disappear, man would follow only a few years later.

That hypothesis could soon be put to the test.

Now in Spain, hundreds of thousands of colonies have been lost and beekeepers in Northern Croatia estimate that five million bees have died in just 48 hours this week.

In Poland, the Swietokrzyskie beekeeper association has estimated that up to 40 per cent of bees were wiped out last year.

Greece, Switzerland, Italy and Portugal have also reported heavy losses.

The depopulation of bees could have a huge impact on the environment, which is reliant on the insects for pollination. If taken to the extreme, crops, fodder - and therefore livestock - could die off if there are no pollinating insects left.

German bee expert Professor Joergen Tautz from Wurzburg University said: 'Bees are vital to bio diversity. There are 130,000 plants for example for which bees are essential to pollination, from melons to pumpkins, raspberries and all kind of fruit trees - as well as animal fodder - like clover.

'Bees are more important than poultry in terms of human nutrition. Bees from one hive can visit a million flowers within a 400 square kilometre area in just one day.

'Bees are not only working for our welfare, they are also perfectindicators of the state of the environment. We should take note.'
