What a damning film. Certainly provides food for thought about Vandana Shiva but seems to give a free pass to GMOs as if GMOs were developed (in good faith) as mankind's answer to food scarcity. Let's not forget that GMOs were brought to us by the same globalists who are directly behind the "climate crisis" and all the other crises and wars intended to depopulate the planet. Clearly the fertilizer ban in Sri Lanka was not designed to create a better alternative to BigAgra business -- it was designed to do exactly what it did -- throw that country into food scarcity and political turmoil. Why are there only two possibilities, both of which achieve the globalists goals of depopultion? We have to choose between poisoning by BigAgra or famine and poverty imposed by regulation? Shame on Vandana Shiva. She knew that Sri Lanka would not be able to transition with a fertilizer ban. I have no words for "King Charles".... We can do better than this....

It is surprising to see Matt Ehret heralding this film, his work is usually defined by excellence in research, references and carefully constructed arguments. Whilst there may well be room to pause for some thought around a celebrated 'eco-activist' such as Vandana Shiva the work falls short of providing an effective interrogation of the subject. Some of the points raised are glaring in omission - such as the presentation of DDT as "safe and effective" and the 'guilt by association' regarding Jorian Jenks is weak, whilst the crop circle image juxtaposed with Rudolf Steiner is simply poor filmmaking. There is a formidable point regarding agriculture in India and Vandana Shiva's role in purporting to stand for the rights of local farmers against the impositions of global agriculture - this is a complex subject which has been very much alive within contemporary Indian politics - this neglects to examine significant details regarding GMO seed farming.
