The Safe Food Movement VS Agrochemical Giants Monsanto, Dow, DuPont, Syngenta and More (ONE of TWO)

Campaigns for labeling genetically engineered food have swept the US from California to Washington and on to Connecticut, Maine, and Alaska, Oregon and Vermont. Actually by January 2014, according to the Center for Food Safety, 26 states had introduced mandatory labeling legislation. People who participated in these campaigns realized with surprise and shock that they were fighting for a right that is already guaranteed in 64 other countries, including all the industrial democracies that we compare ourselves to. The other shocking discovery was that such a simple and obvious demand, the right to know what food we put into our bodies was challenged wherever it was about to be codified via ballot proposals or state legislation by a powerful and extremely well funded lobby. Foremost among them of course the agrochemical corporations such as Monsanto, Dow, DuPont, Syngenta, Bayer, BASF and junk food manufacturers such as Kraft Foods, Pepsico and Coca Cola.

A Sporting Chance For The Environment

The business side of the American sports industry is the hidden underbelly which, when exposed, can be rather distasteful. More and more, taxpayers are paying some of the world’s wealthiest families to build the facilities that house these already profitable businesses we love to cheer for. But it’s not all doom and gloom according to this week’s guest on Sea Change Radio, Allen Hershkowitz. A pioneer in the greening of the sports industry and a senior scientist at the NRDC, Dr. Hershkowitz is working to help decrease the carbon footprint of our nation’s sports teams while engaging sports industry leaders to speak up about environmental problems like climate change.

Coup in Ukraine

Rick Rozoff returns to the program to follow-up on his previous interview about the possibility of a regime-change operation in Ukraine. Something beyond Rozoff's most dire predictions has come to fruition. The events in Ukraine "have been long in the making" and "methodically planned out." As usual, the Western-backed golpistas have engaged in the criminalization of the former government.

Computer Chess

NERD ALERT!!! Up next it's COMPUTER CHESS the completely BIZARRE yet strangely alluring (2013) film from Writer/Director Andrew Bujalski. Set over the course of a weekend tournament for chess software programmers thirty-some years ago, COMPUTER CHESS transports us to a nostalgic moment when the contest between technology and the human spirit seemed a little more up for grabs. Delightfully retro and oddly humorous, Bujalski takes us down a rabbit hole of head scratching turns and offers a conclusion that may just question artificial intelligence as we know it and what it may mean to us in the future. It's as odd a film as you'll see this year! Check it out, see if we put the pieces together.

Two truth-tellers: Sir Gerald Kaufman and EvaBartlett

First, we hear Sir Gerald Kaufman speaking on the floor of the British House of Commons in April of 2002. Much more recently (2-5-2014), Sir Gerald again rose there, to speak on the humanitarian situation in Gaza. We hear excerpts from that speech. The feature presentation today is an interview with Eva Bartlett who has been called Canada’s Rachel Corrie. (Unlike Corrie, Bartlett is very much alive today.) She is an activist and journalist who has been living in Gaza since 2008 (about 5 years). We present a very special interview of her on 12-7-2013 by Mike McCormick of "Mind Over Matters" radio. As a volunteer with the International Solidarity Movement, Eva has been accompanying Gaza farmers and fisherman under threat of harassment and sniper fire from Israeli forces. She rode with medics in their ambulances during Operation Cast Lead, Israel’s devastating assault on Gaza in 2008-2009 that killed more than 1,400 Gazans. She has documented the 2012 Israeli attacks from a hospital in the central Gaza strip. At the time of this posting, Eva is scheduled to appear in person twice in the Boston area, once on 2-28-2014 at Community Church of Boston (565 Boylston St - Copley T stop) and again 3-2-2014 at First Church in Cambridge (11 Garden St - Harvard T stop).
