[Biofuel] Be wary of biotech lettuce experiments
Be wary of biotech lettuce experiments http://www.enn.com/top_stories/article/29099 The Salinas Californian recently reported on a talk by Professor Henry Daniell, who was here to promote cultivation of drug-producing lettuce. The biotechnology industry has long hoped to use plants, including common food crops, to produce high-profit new drugs. It is worth noting that Daniell is not only an academic; he is also the founder of Chlorogen, Inc., a company that hopes to profit from these so-called 'pharm' crops. Salinas farmers should be leery of lettuce pharming. The California lettuce industry is still reeling from consumer fears of E. coli contamination. Imagine the uproar from healthy salad eaters when they learn that California lettuce growers are planting untested, experimental drugs near the lettuce that is destined for our supermarkets. Scientists say there is no way to keep untested drugs produced in food crops out of the food supply. Even the editors of the pro-biotechnology science journal Nature Biotechnology warned: 'Don't use food plants for producing drugs,' because of the health risks. Consumers, including our children, who may unknowingly eat pharmed lettuce could get an uncontrolled dose of an untested, biologically active drug - with unknown consequences. As reported in The Californian, Daniell claims that farmers growing untested drugs in lettuce will face no new regulations. This sounds frighteningly similar to the promises made by the world's leading pharm crop company, ProdiGene, to Midwestern farmers. Although the company promised farmers would face 'no new growing practices' if they chose to plant ProdiGene's untested drugs in their corn, this lax attitude cost some farmers more than they bargained for. Half-a-million bushels of Nebraska soybeans were ordered to be destroyed when the unapproved ProdiGene drug-corn contaminated the soy crop. Daniell claims that contamination would not be a concern because his drug-producing lettuce can't cross with natural lettuce varieties. But, ProdiGene's corn did not cross-pollinate with soybeans: It contaminated soybeans with volunteer drug-corn from the previous season's seed grown on the same land. The drug corn went undetected in the soybean field that was harvested the following season. Cross-pollination is one of many potential routes of contamination. Other unapproved biotech crops have contaminated safe, natural varieties during every stage of production. Contamination occurs through seed mix-ups, wind or animal seed dispersal, not thoroughly cleaned farm equipment and storage bins, improperly labeled seeds, and numerous other unpredictable ways, often from human error. Danielle's system for avoiding cross-pollination relies on the hope that genes inserted into a plant's chloroplast cells will not be a contamination problem, since they are a part of the plant's DNA that does not mix in pollination. But, a 2003 study found that genes can move between the chloroplast and nuclei of plants, and they did so more often than researchers expected. This means that Danielle's untested drug plants could cross-pollinate with lettuce destined for our dinner tables. Given all the potential human errors that could lead to contamination, and the biological reality that it is impossible to fully contain these untested drug plants, it is clear that lettuce pharming is a dangerous idea for Salinas. If growers in the Salinas Valley are looking for new markets, they should look to safer, healthier, and organic markets, not an untested, risky pharm crop that will do more harm to the industry than good.

Re: [Biofuel] We need these cars *#
Yes those cheap indian cars will increase pollution somewhat, because the target buyer is people who now use motorbikes or bikes. Smog might actually be less than with motorbikes if they are replacing two cycle bikes, but CO2 is pretty certain to increase (as it also will with higher horsepower engines that he seems to favor, oddly). And even a small car is alot bigger than a motorbike or bike, so traffic congestion is likely to get worse too. However... the rest of his statements only serve to show his own ignorance about how the rest of the world lives. Perhaps he'd like to try an annual income of $3,000? Or $300?

Re: [Biofuel] interesting refrigerator
Hi Tom, Thank you so much for your post. We've been way back for 5 years and the decision tree is quite different from that of the plug in culture. Regarding refrigeration: it is a significant energy user and when watts are precious we take notice. My solution is quite simple in our cold climate of Northern New Hampshire USA where it is colder more than warmer than refrigeration temperatures. I put the refrigerator in an insulated cavity on an outside wall with vents (manually operated) to allow more and/or less access to outside air. The primary purpose of regulation was to keep the refrigerator from freezing. Since the refrigerator itself is also insulated, it averages temperatures over time and freezing has not been a problem, so vent operation is very minimal. In summer the (normal electric) refrigerator blows its waste heat (and noise) outside. Spring and Fall, the compressor sometimes comes on and works efficiently against cool outdoor temperatures. I'm installing a small chest freezer using same principles. I had ruled out a freezer due to excessive power consumption before the north wall concept. Small, personal innovation can produce satisfaction beyond savings. How nice that is.

Re: [Biofuel] Fwd: Cute Video with important messages
David, You wrote: The local farmers here love Wal-Mart! I don't know where your here is. I also don't know if things have changed dramatically in the last year or so but I was visiting friends in Florida (southern US) during September of '06. I commented that I thought there would be better produce in their supermarkets. The tomatoes, peaches and strawberries reminded me of what is available in December. I was told that they, the friends, bought most of their produce from local farm markets rather than from the large supermarkets. On the way home to New York, I stopped at a farm stand in Georgia, the peach state, and bought half a bushel of fresh, delicious peaches. I asked if I could get the same local peaches in Walmart and was told No. The young lady told me that the large supermarket chains deal with suppliers that can deliver peaches, and other fruit and vegetables, all year round. The local farmers can't do that. Their produce was sold at farm stands, farmer's markets, and some of the small local markets . not the larger supermarket chains. When I returned home I spoke to the owner of our small, local market. He seemed to agree with what I was told. He dealt with a distributor that could assure delivery of produce year round. He does offer local produce during the spring, summer and into the fall. I've heard that the Walmarts of the world are now offering organic produce. I have neither seen nor heard of them featuring locally-produced meats or produce. Maybe things have changed. Maybe your here is very different from my here.

I can go to one store and buy most everything I need and granted some things I don't really need but want just the same. I don't have to drive 15 miles to five different locations to buy the things I can buy at one location. It is not just about convenience but about efficiency both in my time as well as resources. Think about the overall resources to get products to five different stores or five products to one store! It is not just about my efficiency but about the efficiency at which we use all resources. My local box store buys 90% of its fresh produce from local suppliers when it is available. So instead of driving 24 miles one way to the farmers market I can go less than 1 mile round trip to buy the very same produce.

Re: [Biofuel] We need these cars
Hi Kurt, Maybe having fewer cars will help our environment but why not take that a big step forward and have both fewer cars and non polluting cars? Also, why not have non polluting trucks, trains and ships? Just working on one commitment is not enough. Only conservation or only carbon free transportation is not enough to drastically reduce global warming. We need to do both.
