11-Year-Old Takes on Genetically Modified Food Producers (Video)

Most pre-teenagers squirm between the flow of innocence and adolescence. This doesn't seem to be the case with 11-year-old Birke Baehr. He now stars in a one-boy show taking on the likes of the food processing giant Monsanto, kibbling about Genetically Modified Foods or GMO Foods.

In this video, Baehr uses his pre-pubescent voice and a slide projector presentation in a humorous and forthright attempt to inform his brethren that the food industry is not what it seems. His contentions have been mirrored in other studies and common sense, but he does not ever name a specific violator. Whether or not Baehr accomplishes his goal by spreading the word, he definitely sheds a logical light on subject matter that most folks take for granted.

The video attached sheds light on CAFO or concentrated animal feeding operations. Baehr discusses industry advertising and policy to attract costumers. He discusses, with a bit of humor, the marginalization of farmers, who do not employ or sanction the likes of growing crops genetically modified.

It appears that his presentation has been underwritten and produced by an organization attempting to rally the troops for organic food farms called TED. The video and its presentation allow interested parties to delve into their own research by making blanket statements that definitely allow for serious thought.
