http://foodfreedomgroup.com/2012/03/22/319/On March 15, over 1,500 beekeepers and their allies marched thru the streets of Warsaw, depositing thousands of dead bees on the steps of the Ministry of Agriculture, in protest of genetically modified foods and their requisite pesticides which are killing bees, moths and other agriculturally-beneficial insects around the globe.
Later that day the Minister of Agriculture, Marek Sawicki, announced plans to ban MON810, which has become ineffective at deterring pests in the US.

At some point yields will be raised so high or, more likely the Earth will be so damaged, that they we will doubt our ability to grow enough good with non-GMO crops. The GMO producers threaten our food supply just like the bankers recently threatened our money supply.
