GMO Debate

[{"description":"The bees die worldwide. The main causes of this are the global abduction of bee diseases, but above all the loss of habitat and the further progressive globalization of agriculture, which is characterized by monocultures, the use of pesticides and genetic engineering. This is accompanied by a decline in biodiversity, the loss of flowering plant stocks, which results in hunger and one -sided nutrition for the bees.\n\nBeekeeps have also been complaining about losses on honey bee colonies for years. At the same time, the stocks of many wild bee species decrease dramatically. This is no coincidence, but have systemic reasons. The bees prove to be a seismograph for the condition of our environment. Their disappearance at the same time symbolizes the global species death and is an expression of fundamental undesirable developments in the dealings of man with nature.\n\nOur work at the Aurelia Stiftung therefore serves the goal and purpose of sensitizing society to the causes and dangers of global bee and species death, strengthening research and general education through bees and motivating as many fellow human beings as possible.\n\nThe Aurelia Foundation is committed to bees, polluting insects and the preservation of biodiversity. Under the motto \"Long live the bee\", we bring people together from all areas of life and create a broad civil society movement to the well -being of bees.\n\nThe global bee and species death threatens our livelihood and- to a comparable extent like climate change- presents us with existential challenges. In order to effectively counter them, we need strong social alliances and qualified research, educational and public relations work. We devote ourselves to these tasks at the Aurelia Foundation with a special specialist expertise and passion for flower -resisting insects."},{"description":"Weltweit sterben die Bienen. Hauptursachen daf\u00fcr sind die globale Verschleppung von Bienenkrankheiten, vor allem aber der Verlust von Lebensraum und die weiter fortschreitende Globalisierung der Landwirtschaft, die gepr\u00e4gt ist durch Monokulturen, den Einsatz von Pestiziden und Gentechnik. Damit einher geht ein R\u00fcckgang der Artenvielfalt, der Verlust von bl\u00fchenden Pflanzenbest\u00e4nden, was Hunger und einseitige Ern\u00e4hrung f\u00fcr die Bienen zur Folge hat.\n\nAuch Imkereien klagen seit Jahren \u00fcber Verluste an Honigbienenv\u00f6lkern. Gleichzeitig nehmen die Best\u00e4nde vieler Wildbienenarten dramatisch ab. Das ist kein Zufall, sondern hat systemische Gr\u00fcnde. Die Bienen erweisen sich als Seismograph f\u00fcr den Zustand unserer Umwelt. Ihr Verschwinden steht zugleich sinnbildlich f\u00fcr das globale Artensterben und ist Ausdruck f\u00fcr grundlegende Fehlentwicklungen im Umgang des Menschen mit der Natur.\n\nUnsere Arbeit bei der Aurelia Stiftung dient deshalb dem Ziel und Zweck, die Gesellschaft f\u00fcr die Ursachen und Gefahren des weltweiten Bienen- und Artensterbens zu sensibilisieren, die Forschung und Allgemeinbildung \u00fcber Bienen zu st\u00e4rken und m\u00f6glichst viele Mitmenschen zu pers\u00f6nlichem Engagement zu motivieren.\n\nDie Aurelia Stiftung setzt sich f\u00fcr Bienen, best\u00e4ubende Insekten und den Erhalt der Artenvielfalt ein. Unter dem Motto \u201eES LEBE DIE BIENE\u201c bringen wir Menschen aus allen Lebensbereichen zusammen und schaffen eine breite zivilgesellschaftliche Bewegung zum Wohl der Bienen.\n\nDas weltweite Bienen- und Artensterben bedroht unsere Lebensgrundlagen und stellt uns \u2013 in vergleichbarem Ausma\u00df wie der Klimawandel \u2013 vor existentielle Herausforderungen. Um ihnen wirksam entgegenzutreten, brauchen wir starke gesellschaftliche Allianzen und eine qualifizierte Forschungs-, Bildungs- und \u00d6ffentlichkeitsarbeit. Diesen Aufgaben widmen wir uns bei der Aurelia Stiftung mit einer besonderen Fachexpertise und Leidenschaft f\u00fcr bl\u00fctenbest\u00e4ubende Insekten.","lg":"de","primary":true}]

[{"description":"The European Commission wants to relax the rules for the approval of genetic engineering in agriculture. And this despite the fact that 81 percent of citizens in Germany are in favor of a ban on genetically modified organisms in agriculture.\n\nThe EU Commission's agro-genetic engineering plans endanger the freedom of choice of consumers and beekeepers and the protection of the environment. Even small genetic manipulations on flowering plants can have serious effects on wild and honey bees and their food webs. Scientists from environmental authorities in Germany, Italy, Austria, Poland and Switzerland are therefore calling for all plants from new genetic engineering to be subjected to a risk assessment. Genetically modified food must not be smuggled onto fields, plates and into the environment without the knowledge of the people, without being checked and labeled."},{"description":"Die Europ\u00e4ische Kommission will die Regeln f\u00fcr die Zulassung von Gentechnik in der Landwirtschaft lockern.

[{"description":"The Stop Gene Drives campaign calls for preventing the release of genetically modified gene drive organisms into nature. Gene drive organisms represent one of the riskiest uses of genetic engineering ever developed.\n\nA representative survey shows that the majority of Europeans find the release of gene drive organisms too risky. NGOs from all over the world are calling for a global gene drive moratorium.\n\nWith new genetic engineering methods such as CRISPR\/Cas, animals and plants are to be genetically manipulated during reproduction in such a way that they pass on a new characteristic to all their offspring - even if it is deadly for them. Gene drives override the natural rules of inheritance. This mechanism then repeats itself independently in each new generation: a genetic engineering chain reaction.\n\nGene drive organisms are intended to displace or even eradicate their conspecifics in nature. Their release can have unpredictable consequences for ecosystems and food webs. It cannot be undone. In the worst case, this could lead to further species extinction and the collapse of entire ecosystems, and also endanger human health and nutrition.\n\nPrevent the release of gene drive organisms!"},{"description":"Die Stop Gene Drives Kampagne fordert, die Freisetzung von gentechnisch ver\u00e4nderten Gene Drive Organismen in die Natur zu verhindern.
