Genetic modification of seeds has put animal genes in vegetables and given us square tomatoes, but the newest breakthrough is the green, water-sensing, potato. Scientists at Edinburgh University injected potato plants with a fluorescence gene borrow from a luminous jellyfish, which cause the leaves of this potato plant to glow green when it needs water. “This is an agriculture of the future,” says Professor Anthony Trewavas.

Victor Johnson, who listens to Dreamland over the internet from the Netherlands, writes, “Today in Amsterdam (December 11) at 3 p.m. local time, there was the usual low, fast-moving cloud layer up in the sky. The clouds only parted briefly, but when they did, I saw an elaborate “spider web” of Chemtrails above the natural clouds, up in the clear sunlight. I could see the planes making them as well as other commercial aircraft in the same vicinity, that were only creating normal, short contrails. By contrast, the Chemtrails planes were making horizon to horizon Chemtrails with the unique “doughnuts on a string” effect.

Last summer?s forest fire in the Sequoia National Forest in California has uncovered hundreds of American Indian relics, causing anthropologists to change their minds about the Indians who lived here thousands of years ago. As archaeologist Ken Wilson said, “This is about refining history, and there is still so much to learn.”

Although road building is normally forbidden in this protected wilderness area, bulldozers had to construct emergency roads during the fire in order to get equipment to burning areas. Also, the flames were so fierce that they incinerated trees as well as underbrush, leaving a scorched, open plain. This created a rare opportunity for anthropologists to gain access to these unexplored wilderness areas.

The seeds we rely on for food are being genetically altered by a handful of large corporations, and the companies that produce these seeds admit that there is no way to keep genetically engineered seeds from contaminating ordinary crops. We?re facing a future where all our crops will be grown from newly-engineered sources and older versions of crops, that have lasted through centuries of changing environmental conditions, will be lost forever. It looks like Big Business has triumphed over common sense, and short term profits have won out over long term security.
