  1. Enshittification of our food and farms: Patents and new GMOs
    Bayer going after Pfizer for patent infringement is a forerunner for widespread abuse of intellectual property claims in food and farming if the planned GMO deregulation goes ahead.

    "As resistance rises, the use of synthetic insecticides often does as well, though such costs were  not included in the potential losses the study attributed to over-planting." The costs of agrichemical use is never taken into account by agribussiness and the companies that produce them. The costs include a.o. health, social, water polution, soil depletion and are always externalized.

  35. “Between 2010 and 2019 alone, Brazil’s Ministry of Health recorded pesticide poisonings of 56,870 people in the country. It is estimated that the cost to the Brazilian public health system [popularly known as SUS] for each case of poisoning is BRL150 [around US$24] per person. On the other hand, for every dollar spent on the purchase of agrochemicals, SUS is burdened by US$ 1,28 depending on the type of intoxication treatment,”

  40. And that's how you come up with the #AntiLife equation (old comic book reference).

    Creating ‘Mirror Life’ Could Be Disastrous, Scientists Warn

    Breakthroughs in synthetic biology could create mirror versions of natural molecules, with devastating consequences for life on Earth

    By Simon Makin
    December 14, 2024

    "A category of synthetic organisms dubbed “mirror life,” whose component molecules are mirror images of their natural counterpart, could pose unprecedented risks to human life and ecosystems, according to a perspective article by leading experts, including Nobel Prize winners. The article, published in Science on December 12, is accompanied by a lengthy report detailing their concerns.

    [...]

    "In 2010 researchers at the J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) in California installed synthetic DNA into a cell to create the first cell with a fully synthetic genome."

    "Consistent with older research, even six months after the researchers stopped feeding the mice the pesticide, the high-levels of glyphosate caused the mice to develop brain inflammation and Alzheimer's-like changes.

    However, the researchers found that there were similar, yet less pronounced, changes in the brains of the mice who were fed low doses of the chemical"
