War of the Trees-Biotech special

War of the Trees is our show "where Earth comes first and corporate profits come last."

In this edition we explore the connection between "iceberg lettuce that looks like it could have sunk the Titanic" in local stores and the control of food distribution by multinational corporations.

We discuss the effect of rBGH on the dairy industry-and that the resulting pus from inflamed udders is why there's so much bad milk these days on the store shelves.

We also discuss insecticide-producing corn, the proposals from Big Pharm to grow "Your grandfathers heart medicine in your Corn Fakes" with GE crops, and the L-Tryptophan paralysis cases caused by the use of GE bacteria to produce a nutritional supplement.

Altogether, investigating industrial food production is like a trip through a sewer in a glass bottom boat!
