【禁聞】轉基因食品 專家：亡國滅種

【新唐人2011年4月30日訊】「綠色和平」組織近日表示，在大陸市售的嬰兒食品中發現了轉基因成分。轉基因是甚麼？轉基因的農作物對生態和人體有甚麼影響？國際上和中國大陸在對待轉基因食品上是怎麼做的？大陸民眾如何對待：當局許可的大面積種植轉基因水稻？請看詳細報導。

國際環保組織：「綠色和平」近日公布了在大陸市售的嬰兒食品、速食米飯等食品中，發現有轉基因成分。他們從2010年底到2011年4月，在北京、武漢、仙桃、廣州和香港等地的市面上，隨機取樣嬰兒食品、速食米飯及米粉，進行了轉基因成分檢測。

方立鋒（綠色和平食品與農業專案主任）：[花了有幾個月的調查吧，總共取得一百多個樣品，然後發現有十個檢出了轉基因成分。情況還是很嚴重的，國外的一些權威機構，比如英國的皇家學會，任何嬰兒食品轉基因成分要接受最嚴格的審查。]

「轉基因技術」可以使生物體的一些原始特徵發生改變，並且可以遺傳給後代。生物學家最早利用轉基因技術，是希望培育出高產、抗病毒、抗蟲、抗除草劑等的新品種。

但是在實際生產中和科學實驗中，人們也發現了轉基因作物的危害性。

維也納大學獸醫學教授岑太克（Juergen Zentek）2009年研究發現，在持續20週以上，使用含33％的轉基因玉米餵養的小白鼠，從第三代開始後代的體重、體長和數量明顯減少。

而美國農民曾報告說，他們飼養的成千上萬隻豬吃了轉基因玉米飼料後，都不能生殖了，有的豬出現假孕，生下來一袋子水。印度哈里亞納邦的調查表明，大多數吃了轉基因棉籽的水牛有併發症，如早產、流產、不育並子宮脫垂。而在很多國家，種植轉基因玉米的農田裡沒有老鼠，因為都死光了。

在最早大面積種植轉基因農作物的南美洲各國，近年來不斷有媒體曝光，當地居民生下的孩子接連都是先天畸形。

南美受害者索菲亞：[在中毒之前我們曾是一個幸福的家庭，我們曾經擁有自己的植物和果樹，但我們現在甚麼都失去了，包括我的弟弟。一位醫生告訴我不能生小孩，最少10年不能生，否則都是先天畸形，是因為中毒的緣故。]

目前，世界糧農組織、衛生組織、經濟合作組織等權威機構，以及115個國家的250個消費者協會，沒有一個宣佈說，他們認為轉基因食品是安全的。「綠色和平」組織曾警告各國政府要加強對轉基因食品安全性的研究，同時呼籲立即停止任何轉基因糧食作物的商業化審批和種植。

但是，2009年年底，中共當局批准許可了兩種轉基因水稻並開始廣泛種植。中國作為全球最大的水稻生產國和消費國，也就成為了全球第一個轉基因水稻商業化的國家，這引發了很多中國人的擔憂和反對。尤其是農業部還宣稱，轉基因稻米在三五年內將成為中國人的主食。

大陸食品安全專家葉永茂認為，轉基因食品含毒素，能引起人類得癌症、器官畸形，甚至會讓人類的基因發生突變，遺害後代子孫，所以現在許多國家抵制轉基因食品上市。

台灣明道大學校長陳世雄教授，也擔任台灣有機產業促進協會理事長，他認為，人類無力承受轉基因食品給人類帶來毀滅性的災難，他把食品安全和國土安全放到了同一個重要的水準上。

陳世雄（台灣明道大學校長）：[這些東西都是對人類前途和未來都是有一個很大的危機存在，就是要避免這種科技運用了以後，最後會導致我們人類的後代，甚至於現代的人類的福祉和健康（受傷害）。]

絕大多數中國網友和民眾也強烈反對轉基因食品。

[這是非常可怕的一件事，你到底想給中國人民帶來甚麼？”“這是大問題，現在社會上講了，這是亡國滅種的問題！]

Expert: GM Food Will Destroy China

Green Peace said genetically modified (GM) ingredients

were found in commercial baby foods in China .

What is GM? How will it affect ecology and human body?

How is it treated internationally and in China?

What can people do when China allows large-scale

cultivation of GM rice? Let』s look at the detailed reports.

Green Peace recently announced the finding of GM in

commercially available baby foods, instant rice and

other food products in China. From the end of 2010

to April 2011, they randomly sampled baby foods,

instant rice and noodles in Beijing, Wuhan, Xiaotao,

Guangzhou and Hong Kong to detect GM ingredients.

Fang Lifeng (Green Peace Food & Agricultural Officer):

"We spent several months to sample about 100 products,

GM ingredients were found in ten samples. It is very

serious. According to British Royal Society, to include

GM ingredients in baby foods must be seriously reviewed."

GM technology can change original features of organisms,

which can inherit to next generations. The first use of GM

technology is to breed new varieties which are high-yield,

anti-virus, insect resistant and hardy to herbicides.

GM crops are found harmful in production and scientific

experiments.

Professor Juergen Zentek in Veterinary Medicine,

University of Vienna found in 2009, for mice fed with

33% GM corn for 20 weeks or longer, the 3rd generations

decreased in weight, length and population.

。

U.S. farmers have reported thousands of pigs fed with

GM corn could not reproduce. Some had false pregnancy

and gave birth to a pouch of water. India Haryana Survey

showed most buffalos fed with GM cottonseeds had

complicating diseases, such as premature delivery,

miscarriage, infertility and uterine prolapse.

In many countries, mice die off in GM maize fields.

GM crops were first cultivated in South America.

Babies were reportedly with congenital malformation.

Victim Sofia in South America said, "We used to be

a happy family with our own plants and fruit trees.

Now we lost everything, including my brother.

Doctor said I should not get pregnant in next 10 years,

or the baby will be congenitally malformed. "

Currently FAO, WHO, ECO and other authorities,

as well as 250 Consumer Associations in 115 countries,

none has announced saying GM food is safe.

Green Peace warned governments to strengthen research

on GM food safety, and called for an immediate

cessation of GM crops commercialization and planting.

At the end of 2009, Chinese authorities approved two

GM rices for planting. As the world's largest rice producer

and consumer, China became the first to commercialize

GM rice, which sparked many concerns and opposition

of Chinese people. Ministry of Agriculture announced

GM rice would become major foods of China in 3 years.

Ye Yongmao, an expert of Food safety in China said,

GM foods contain toxins causing cancer and organ

abnormalities, even genes mutation, which will harm

next generations. GM food is forbidden in many countries.

Professor Chen Shixiong, president of Taiwan Mingdao

University and chairman of the Taiwan Organic Industry

Promotion Association said, human beings can』t

afford the catastrophe brought by GM foods. He put

food safety on the same level with Homeland Security.

Chen Shixiong: “GM foods is a great crisis for mankind』s

future, we should prevent this technology from eventually

hurting our well-beings and health.”

The overwhelming majority of Chinese netizens and

citizens strongly oppose GM foods.
