Water will be the next crisis we face, THE GLOBAL GROUP

March 13, 2009

Water in California: Dust to Dust | www.economist.com

  The water crisis will be a critical element in not only agriculture but in the ever growing aquaculture field. We ask farmers to produce more with less land, now we will be demanding that they produce even more with less water as well. A situation, if left to its own devises, will make the oil issues we face small in comparison.

Another Attack on High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) - Should You be Concerned?

February 3, 2009

Not So Sweet: Missing Mercury and High Fructose Corn Syrup | www.healthobservatory.org

A report out last week would lead many to say that they have found another reason to not consume HFCS as well as not to trust big industry or the FDA. It is important to check the facts and who is sending you their "facts". If the report is true I sure would not want to check all the labels on the foods and drinks I consume, or maybe just give up eating prepared foods, or anything that the FDA has ever looked at.
