The Future of Food

THE FUTURE OF FOOD is a feature length documentary that offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods that have quietly filled grocery store shelves for the past decade.

The Future of Food has also been a key tool in the American and international anti-GMO grassroots activist movements and played widely in the environmental and activist circuits since its release in 2004. The film is widely acknowledged for its role in educating voters and the subsequent success of passing Measure H in Mendocino County, California, one of the first local initiatives in the country to ban the planting of GMO crops.

  1. Broad scientific consensus states that currently marketed GM food poses no greater risk than conventionally produced food. No reports of ill effects have been documented in the human population from GM food. Although GMO labeling is required in many countries, the United States Food and Drug Administration does not require labeling, nor does it recognize a distinction between approved GMO and non-GMO foods.

  2. Why don’t farmers countersue Monsanto for “CONTAMINATED” their fields and crops with Monsanto’s genetic engineered seeds? It’s obvious that Monsanto’s seeds are unwanted and out of control in spreading onto their private land and crops.

    The FDA and the EPA are two government agencies should be eliminated. There should be laws that completely ban the activities of lobbyists and congressional members to accept campaign donations from private companies.

    • they did and were told that they were stirring shit up and creating drama where none was needed. the organic seed growers and trade association are planning to appeal the ruling. this decision was made by some district judge by the name of 
      Judge Naomi Buchwald

  3. A very important and insightful documentary. THIS IS A MUST WATCH IF YOU CARE ABOUT THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY! Cannot stress that enough as the issues that are covered in this documentary, could be detrimental to everyones future.

    AFTER WATCHING THIS DOCUMENTARY, PLEASE SPREAD IT AROUND TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE!

  4. this has opened my eyes to the evil people will go to for money if we let them… think about all the things that have happened in the past like slavery and the gas chamber they just wanted to take over the world and we are the super heros that stop that from happening ….. 

  5. This film is retarded, just like environmentalists.  We’re living longer and longer and longer as time goes on, but envirodunces have to make up problems to complain about and justify their existence.  Case in point, globull warming.

    Get a life, envirotards. Go fuck some trees!

  6. The research is out there for those really interested to look. Some is hard to locate.
    It is my feeling that manipulation/control on this scale, at this level is insidious and fundamentally evil. The understanding of which will only be obvious in hindsight, then it will be too late. (How do you take back an aggressively modified plant with a terminator gene embedded, once it has jumped the fence?)
    The problem is that attempts to control nature on this level will not only devastate plants animals and humans, it may cause an even greater and more urgent response from nature, and humanity will be the loser. Perhaps at this point even profit won’t matter.
    A key to our survival might be that we respect nature’s logic.

Do you have any recommendations, like .. the tastiest vegetarian recipe, ever, or something?! Thanks in advance! I hope it goes well

  9. organic foods are the best for our health since they are free from dangerous chemicals and toxins ~:*

  10. the best thing about organic foods is that they are free from hazardous chemicals that are present in non-organic foods`:-

  11. I think this is a great docmentary because it show
    s the injustice of the world and how it soon forgets the men and women who get early in the morning and who worry if there going to have a job or food on the table .Its not ok if were subjected to control freaks and are looked at as collateral damage . just look at some of the things that are happen to new born kids are oceans and the wildlife Staphylococcus on the Beach’s Autism many different degrees of it Down syndrome Cancer at a all time high just some of the many changes happening in today’s world i don’t fancy being a Ginnie pig to someone with the more more syndrome i find my self asking is it the beginning of the end .you can;t fool mother nature with your spray’s and genetic testing because inevitable what come ‘s around go around what kill’s us will kill you.money can’t buy you health. steve

  12. dude, the only real alternative is you grow your own food, people should become self sufficient in 21st century or they will die without realizing that everything they know of is made either of oil, or because of oil.
    for now, it is enough to just buy from someone you know is growing plain natural food, not some monsanto’s frankenfood, but soon it will be necessary to grow your own food and be self sufficient, meaning you survive without need to buy food or water from anyone.
    Mark these words.
    Also it is the only true alternative, back to basics, we’ve ridden the oil benefits and luxuries long enough.

    • Probably a good documentary but I just could not stand watching that enormous logo blastered over half the screen for more than 1 minute. Iskysoft logo blows!

  13. This documentary is kind of useless. It devotes a lot of it’s time to criticism of the cartelized food industry, which is good and useful, though they take a hard line against genetic engineering, which is unnecessary and unwise in my opinion.’

    They also use manipulative sound design and editing.

    When it comes time to offer alternatives to the current system, they fall short. They basically just advocate “organic” food. Organic food is a good idea for a couple of reasons, mainly because it uses emergent standards for agricultural, rather than man-made designed ones. But I don’t know that they realized this.

    They did not go into other ideas, such as perma-culture, a meshing of intentional design and emergent structure.

    The only real piece of activism they advise is being careful about what you choose to buy, which I agree with, but nothing else.

    • you are kind of useless and i think you and others that care nothing and do noting of important nature should go somewhere and drink poison.. if your not helping Earth then leave we don’t need you or want you here
