Hormone-fed veggies being sold in Punjab
Source: Hindustan Times, Mumbai, Date: , 2009
Is it really time to think about our health and survival? Yes, the time
has come where the things are either getting diminished or vanishing
from this planet earth. Other than the terrorism and nuclear bombs, the
biggest threat to the mankind is underway, which is the Climate change.
The Global warming, which is slowly slowly engulfing the world and
worrying everybody. The Global warming is causing, either lesser rain or
heavy rain. At some places un-seasonal rains, flooding wreck havoc
spoiling the farming land and agricultural produce. The agricultural
produce are getting depleted day by day. It is an irony that, when the
rain is badly needed, there will be no rain, if it all the there is
little and the farmers grow the food grains, vegetable etc., the
un-seasonal rains will destroy the standing crop. So, the farmers go
bankrupt as their produce will not help them to repay their debts and as
a result, many farmers commit suicide. Now, the farmers try everything,
by hook or crook they want to sustain, but at what cost?? At the cost of
unsuspecting people's lives! The farmers in Punjab and other places are
trying to inject hormone to the vegetables, to get more produce, which
is dangerous to human health. Fruits, Meat, Grains and Vegetables are
now genetically modified at some point of their growth to enhance their
shelf-life and we are at the receiving end. Eating this G.M food is
dangerous to human health. Government should start taking necessary
action right now to curb this menace; otherwise we will have no option
other than eating these Hormone-fed Vegetables etc.
