Genetically Modified Salmon Research Articles

12 November 2014
Susan Robens-Brannon

It is difficult to find real studies on GM salmon and related issues, here is a start.  Most of the articles were on the activities and effects on the salmon, almost none were found for human or animal consumption health effects.

Links to research articles on GM salmon:

Large Scale escapes Farmed fish;  AquaBounty promises that the salmon will be contained. They grow the fish in Canada and the Canadians are concerned.  Why grow the eggs in Canada, ship the eggs to Panama and then ship the food to America?  An article on how the farmed fish escape into the wild.

Growth enhanced transgenetic salmon can be inferior swimmers.

GMO Salmon?

Are you kidding me?  GMO Salmon? AquaBounty is a company who is modifying the Salmon in Panama out of the eyes of U.S. regulators and wants to ship the finished GMO salmon to the U.S.  Recently AquaBounty was fined for violations in repeated environmental regulations in Panama.  Despite of these atrocities, the FDA is secretly trying to approve the frankenfish for sale in the U.S.

AquaBounty's frankenfish is an Atlantic salmon, spliced with genes from an EEL pout and growth hormone from a Chinook salmon.  The result is an aggressive aggressive salmon that produces growth hormone year-round, grows twice as fast, and consume five times more food than wild salmon.  Introducing these traits into the wild population would be disastrous - and irreversible.

Let's see who is on the board the non-executive director Thomas Kasser spent 20 years at Monsanto, Christine T. St. Clare is director at the Polymer Corp.  Investors are not listed but as those who are directors are shareholders.

Stop GMO Salmon by signing and passing along this petition....it does not hurt to keep hounding these guys before our food system spirals out of control.

Informative Videos: You decide...my point, GM Animal and notice how the media down plays the process.  It is only common sense.  No GMO labeling in Oregon and several states across America.  I predict that now that the bill did not pass, we will see more GMO products hitting the market.  Has there been studies on the health safety from non interested parties?



How Safe Would Genetically Modified Salmon be?

I have an entire section on GMO Salmon videos here  Keep up the good fight, don't give up and quit buying GMO products.

Gresham Oregon Police assaulting me for filming drug raid that woke the ...

Military police vehicles used in the middle of the night for a search warrant.  I went from looking at the military vehicles in the Middle East to seeing them here with our local police.  The neighbor who filmed this was arrested for filming.  Our 1st amendment is ignored.  It never made the local news.



This is not normal and it is not okay.  The news should have made a big deal and the people should be protesting this and the militarized vehicles to use against the American people.  We are not the enemy to the police, but watching this makes the police an enemy of me.
