The 3-disc set includes:
Disc 1, DVD:
Unnatural Selection
Awarded “Best Film,” (CineEco, Portugal), “Best Long Production,” (IEFF, Brazil), and “Best Journalistic Achievement,” (IEFF, Germany). “Meticulously researched, excellently photographed” (Ökomedia)
This stunning European documentary made available for the first time in the US, reveals several harsh consequences of genetic engineering worldwide:
- A failed GM cotton crop prompts farmer suicides in India.
- Windborne GM canola contaminates organic and conventional farms in Canada. One farmer fights Monsanto in the Supreme Court.
- A company seeks approval for giant GM salmon that may threaten the survival of the natural species.
- GM pigs are born with ghastly mutations.
- And experts reveal how inadequate testing and regulations put us at risk.
- It features Vandana Shiva, Andrew Kimbrell, Percy Schmeiser and others.
Disc 2, DVD: Hidden Dangers in Kids’ Meals: Genetically Engineered Foods
Shocking research results, inadequate regulations and warnings from eminent scientists explain why GM foods are dangerous and should be removed from kids’ meals.
The dramatic story of how student behavior in a Wisconsin school was transformed with a healthy diet provides added motivation to make a change. It features Jeffrey Smith and more than a dozen scientists and experts.
- “Hidden Dangers pierces the myth that our government is protecting
our food supply.”
John Robbins, Diet for a New America - “It will change the way you look at food forever.” Howard Lyman, Mad Cowboy
- “The revelations in Hidden Dangers make our choice clear— take
needless risks with genetically engineered food or just say no to this
madness.”
Frances Moore Lappé, Diet for a Small Planet - “Watch this video and start educating yourself.” Candace Pert, PhD, Molecules of Emotion
- “When parents watch scientist after scientist describe the dangers of GM foods, I wouldn’t want to be a stubborn food service director trying to stand in their way.” Hunter Lovins, Natural Capitalism
Disc 3, Audio CD: You’re Eating WHAT?
Jeffrey Smith, author of the world’s best selling book on GM foods, Seeds of Deception, describes how biotech companies rigged research, hid health dangers and pressured government regulators to approve food that even FDA scientists said was unsafe.
“The most powerful presentation I have ever heard on the issue of genetically engineered foods.” Craig Winters, The Campaign to Label Genetically Engineered Foods

"The
current generation of genetically modified (GM) crops unnecessarily risks
the health of the population and the environment.
Present knowledge is not sufficient to safely and predictably modify the plant genome, and the risks of serious side-effects far outweigh the benefits.
We urge you to stop feeding the products of
this infant science to our population and ban the release of these
crops into the environment where they can never be recalled. "
