Vandana Shiva Interview – Problem with GM Seeds

April 26, 2015 by Peter Leave a Comment

Vandana Shiva Interview on the Problem with Genetically-Modified SeedsI’m just starting to see some of Vandana Shiva’s work and she’s amazing. This Vandana Shiva interview as a very good introduction to her. She covers the problems we have today with soil, seeds, genetically modified organisms and the greed of large corporations doing anything to increase their profits and their monopolies. From minute 7 onwards she talks about the problems with the Monsanto corporation.

Vandana Shiva Interview – My Favorite Quotes

  • She notes that in the Bhagavad Gita the Krishna says “You do not measure the fruit of your action, you have to measure your obligation for action.” You have to find the right thing to do. That is your duty. Whether you win or lose is not the issue.
  • The world of interconnectedness would recognise that the rivers of China need to flow clean and free.
  • What we have is an interconnectedness of the world through greed, which is not how Nature works, which is not how humanity works.
  • We have been experiencing a collapse in planetary consciousness.

Hi, I'm Peter Whiting. For my whole life I've been a scientist, but my life has taken a new track. Starting about 8 years ago, I began to realise that so much of our standard way of living just isn't right. We need to become more aware, press the reset button and try to live life in the right direction.
