Muchos activistas anti transgénicos no tienen ningún respeto por las minorías. No tienen problemas con millonarios estadounidenses que ganan dinero estafando a la gente, pero insultan a científicos de países pobres, gente que no gana ni 1000 dólares al año y los acusan de estar vendidos
I don’t think so. They have remained silent about a large ecocide in Venezuela, where Russian mining companies are destroying the rainforest in the Roraima National Park. Thousands of unique species are being killed, and not a word from Greenpeace. You check their website and there is no mention of this. Real environmental destruction is completely ignored while the theoretical and extremely unlikely risks of GMOs are exaggerated and relentlessly promoted.
They don’t care about people either, as they show when they oppose Golden Rice.
Creo que no. Han permanecido en silencio con respecto al gran ecocidio que está teniendo lugar en Venezuela, donde compañías rusas de minería están destruyendo la selva tropical amazónica en el Parque Nacional Roraima. Cientos de especies únicas están siendo aniquiladas, y Greenpeace no ha dicho una sola palabra. Pueden revisar su sitio web y verán que no hay mención alguna sobre esto. La destrucción ambiental es real, y está siendo completamente ignorada, mientras que los riesgos teóricos y extremadamente improbables de los OMG se exageran y se promueven implacablemente.
Ellos tampoco se preocupan por la gente, tal como lo han demostrado al oponerse al Arroz Dorado
This is a story about our program, the Cornell Alliance for Science, and our graduation night. Humbled to have this opportunity: Global Leadership fellows: passion to improve the planet

Esta es la historia sobre nuestro programa, Cornell Alliance for Science, y sobre la noche de nuestra graduación, en noviembre del 2016. Me siento muy honrado y humildemente agradecido por haber tenido esta oportunidad: Global Leadership fellows: passion to improve the planet

Casi terminamos la filmación. Quería compartir con ustedes esta foto. Tenemos 66 gigabytes de video. Ni siquiera tengo acceso a ella, ya que la velocidad de internet de Venezuela es tan lenta.
Ha tomado mucho tiempo, mucho más de lo que pensamos, pero es un proyecto mucho más grande de lo que pensamos que sería. Es un documental mejor, más y más complejo, con más gente.
Me siento humilde, ha sido un largo camino, pero casi llegamos al final. Sólo espero que la larga noche que mi gente se acabe pronto y podamos ver el amanecer.
We are almost done with the filming. I wanted to share with you this picture. We have 66 gigabytes of video. I do not even have access to it, as the Venezuelan internet speed is so slow.
I has taken a long time, a lot more than we thought, but it is a much larger project than we thought it’d be. It is a better documentary, longer and more complex, with more people.
I am humbled, it has been a long road, but we are almost at the end. I just hope that the long night that my people are going through ends soon and we can see the dawn.
The Venezuelan Government is promoting the Orinoco Mining Arch as an exit to the current Venezeulan crisis. Some people say it will give us 20 billion dollars of income.
A herd of 5000 to 10000 GM goats that make lactoferrin on their milk would igve us the same income, but since we spent the last 17 years demonising genetic engineering while not investing in research and development. We bought tons of arms and and Russian planes, so no GM goats, we’ll suck the mercury.
That’s Chávez legacy.
We could have been Singapore, but the majority chose Zimbabwe.
El gobierno promociona el Arco Minero del Orinoco como la salida de la crisis. Leí que nos aportará 20 mil millones de dólares ($ 20.000.000.000).
Un rebaño de 5.000 a 10.000 cabras transgénicas que produzcan lactoferrina nos daría el mismo ingreso, pero como nos pasamos 17 años demonizando la ingeniería genética y sin invertir en investigación y desarrollo, pero comprando armas rusas y avioncitos, nada de cabras transgénicas y a chupar mercurio.
Ese es el legado.
Pudimos ser Singapur y la mayoría eligió Zimbabwe.
Recently I was able to show for the first time this trailer of Silenced Crops. This is what I said, roughly, as I didn’t write my speech, I said it as it came out, spontaneously:
Sixteen years ago we had advanced biotechnology in Venezuela. Today, we are starving.
More than 60% of Venezuelans cannot eat three times a day. I am not telling you this because I read the statistics, I am telling you this because some friends and relatives are going through this right now.
16 years ago, a group of zealots destroyed a field of transgenic papayas and managed to make fierce opposition to GMOs part of the government policy.
Now, I won’t tell you that we are starving because we don’t use GMOs. That would not be true. But there is a connection between the food crisis and the GMO rejection. Hunger is what happens when your agricultural and economic policies are not based on facts, science and evidence. It’s what happens when your policies are based on rumors, lies, dogma and blind ideology.
I am making this documentary not only to tell you what happened 16 years ago, but to show that hunger is the price that people pay for the irrationality of their rulers.
