Monarch butterfly
Earlier this month, the University of Guelph (Ontario, Canada) released a research report that ties the dramatic decline of the monarch butterfly to the pervasive use of GMOs (genetically modified organism) crops across the United States.
In this Deep Roots Radio interview, researcher and co-author Dr. Tyler Flockhart describes how his team identified the industrial agricultural practice of planting and spraying GMO cropland as a dominant contributor to the 90% decline in the monarch butterfly population in the eastern United States.
I hope you find his remarks as interesting as I did. Let me know what you think.
