Which supermarket foods are genetically engineered? This is probably the most urgent question the public has about these novel foods. Opinion polls show that up to 90 percent of the American public wants GE foods labeled. But despite this overwhelming demand, almost no foods on U.S. grocery shelves reveal their secret, genetically engineered ingredients.

We’ve seen that our government, under pressure from the biotechnology industry, has not required the labeling of GE foods. And the biotech industry does not voluntarily identify them, fearing, probably correctly, that the majority of Americans would avoid GE foods if given a choice. As a result, the U.S. public has been deprived of its right to choose whether to buy and consume these engineered foods. However, this is not the case with most of our major trading partners around the globe who have instituted mandatory labeling of all GE foods and ingredients.

Our True Food Shoppers Guide to Avoiding GE Foods was the first of its kind, first published in October of 2000. In fact, the Shoppers Guide is what launched the True Food Network! The Guide is designed to help reclaim your right to know about the foods you are buying, and help you find and avoid GMO foods and ingredients.

This Guide was compiled based on company statements sent to CFS and consumers; statements posted on company websites; and companies enrolled in the Non-GMO Project\'s Non-GMO verification program. As ingredients change frequently, always check the packages--even of foods you buy often--to be sure to avoid non-organic at-risk ingredients on products not labeled as Non-GMO.

This Cool Foods infographic lets you visualize our three primary carbon sinks: the atmosphere, the oceans and terrestrial life and quantifies how much CO2 has been absorbed by each of them since the Industrial Revolution. We know that pumping too much carbon in the atmosphere disturbs the climate cycle and too much in the ocean causes them to acidify. Sinking atmospheric carbon in the ground, however, is actually a good thing as converted into soil carbon, it helps plants to grow.

Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a serious public health concern—and the use of antibiotics in animal feed is a primary source of the problem. A startling 30 million pounds of antibiotics are sold annually for animal agriculture, making up 80% of all antibiotics used in the U.S The vast majority of antibiotic use in agriculture is used not to treat sick animals, but to promote weight gain in poultry and livestock, thereby allowing animal factories to produce animals for market faster and more cheaply.

In recent years, an additional source of antibiotics in animal feed has been unveiled from an unlikely fuel manufacturing process – corn ethanol production.

WHY GM CROPS WILL NOT FEED THE WORLD
By Bill Freese

Last spring marked a tipping point for rising global food prices. Haiti\'s prime minister was ousted amid rice riots; Mexican tortillas have quadrupled in price. African countries were hit especially hard. According to the World Bank, global food prices have risen a shocking 83% from 2005 to 2008. And for the world\'s poor, high prices mean hunger. In fact, the food crisis recently prompted University of Minnesota food experts to double their projection of the number of the world\'s hungry by the year 2025 - from 625 million to 1.2 billion.

Many in the biotechnology industry seem to believe there\'s a simple solution to the global food crisis: genetically modified (GM or biotech) crops.4 Biotech multinationals have been in media blitz mode ever since the food crisis first made headlines, touting miracle crops that will purportedly increase yields, tolerate drought, and cure all manner of ills.

Not everyone is convinced.

Sugar in the food we eat may soon come from genetically engineered (GE)
sugar beets unless we act now. Western farmers in the U.S. are poised to plant their first season of Monsanto’s Roundup Ready (RR), herbicide-tolerant, GE sugar beets. Over half the sugar in processed foods comes from sugar beets and the rest comes from sugar cane. Once food producers start using GE
beet sugar in cereals, breads, baby foods, candies, and other products, we will not know if we are eating GE sugar because GE ingredients are not labeled.
