Believe it or not, for the first time ever, Monsanto has admitted that pests have developed a resistance to their Bt (genetically modified) Cotton.  Skeptics of GMO seeds have been speaking of this risk for years but this is the first time the makers of GMO seeds have admitted such a problem is actually happening in fields.  Of course, their solution is to switch to their 2nd generation of Bt seeds.  You can read the full article in The Hindu. 
 
When will we figure out that the "easy answer" often leads to a whole series of more challenging problems than the first one?  

NOTE:  THE WINNER OF THE EARTH DAY GIVEWAY IS Stacey Christensen!  Congratulations you have won 5 free yards of Harmony Art organic fabrics.
Thank you VERY much for participating in the contest!  I really enjoyed reading all of the quotes.  An extra thank you goes out to Jan of Daisy Janie for organizing the giveaway.
