Tony Ghepardo buys sweet corn seed with no way of knowing it is a new type of seed. He buys five pounds, figuring that will be enough to make up for what the deer will likely eat. But curiously, they don’t touch it—neither do the birds or raccoons. But he does.
Soon he suffers unexplained illnesses. Doctors have no explanation for his deteriorating health. An allergist suggests treatments, but they only make things worse. This goes on for years without any cure or definite answers. Finally, one day Tony sees a glimpse of what could be the problem while watching a Russian news program.
Could genetically modified organisms like GMO corn be to blame? The news program reports symptoms such as immune system problems and gastrointestinal disorders. If that’s the case, why is the American government allowing GMOs to be used?
Author Tony Ghepardo returns with Ghepardo: Canary in the Coal Mine, another timely critique of the government. Here, he takes a close look at GMOs and whether they’re part of a deeper political conspiracy to allow agribusiness to use Americans as unknowing test subjects. As the dispute over GMOs continues to escalate, this story offers a cautionary tale to readers everywhere.
