Dr. Robert Verkerk is the Executive and Scientific Director of the Alliance for Natural Health. Today we discuss his recent article, “UK Royal Society whitewash on GM crops,” which breaks down the Royal Society’s recent report on the safety of genetically modified foods. From false assurances of consensus to exclusion of key issues like glyphosates and superweeds, we show how the latest report is a whitewash and discuss why the Royal Society is promoting the biotech industry.

Thanks James and Dr. Verkerk. I feel that the goal of ‘scientism’ is precisely to obfuscate the evidence through various methods, ultimately confusing and swaying public opinions toward the ‘herding instinct’ groupthink. It was never to represent ANY scientific methodology. As long as the so-called ‘scientific experts’ are afforded the space in media, to the exclusion of any real peer reviewed analyses, and those ‘experts’ are more interested in their REAL sustainability goal (for example, ensuring they continue to receive grant funding – so they do not have to get real jobs?) – the exposure of truth on any topic is compromised. How often have we seen this??? Atoms for Peace, etc. etc.
