This concept is clearly evident in the plant kingdom today....
|
| 6/18/2010 - What's most striking about the present BP oil catastrophe is not that it is an aberration but rather part of a dangerous pattern of mankind's propensity to destroy nature.

| 12/2/2008 - After the turn of the previous century there was a lot of experimentation with mono cultures. By that is meant growing only one field crop, e.g. corn or wheat.

|
| 3/7/2005 - I'm a strong supporter of local law enforcement, but not for the reasons you might suspect.

|
| 7/13/2004 - Leave it to western medical researchers to come up with something this freakish: they've figure out a way to genetically modify plants to force them to create chemicals that can be used against rabies, AIDS and, eventually, other diseases.
