From an activity book funded by the Council for Biotechnology Information:
"Hi Kids! This is an activity book for young people like you about biotechnology - a really neat topic. Why is it such a neat topic? Because biotechnology is helping to improve the health of the Earth and the people who call it home."
The Council for Biotechnology Information is a non-profit 501c6 organization funded by Dow, DuPont, Monsanto, and other agri-chemical companies to "communicate science-based information about the benefits and safety of agricultural biotechnology and its contributions to sustainable development."
Thus the activity book for kids.
The message in the book?
Yummy - genetically modified Crunchy Sugar Bombs!!!! Mmmmm....good for you and good for the environment, kids!!!
Except, you know, none of that is true.
Oh, well - this wouldn't be the first Gates Foundation-funded education initiative to do harm.
And this one is partly Gates Foundation-funded - Monsanto helps to run the Council for Biotechnology Information and the Gates Foundation has 500,000 shares of Monsanto.
But hey, this is not about helping Monsanto and the other evil agri-chemical poisoners make more money by brainwashing children into thinking genetic engineering is swell.
This is about educating the kids for the 21st century economy!
Where is the chapter when the earth turns to dust and people are walking around riddled with tumors?
