Mt Stewart is a lessor known but extremely climbable peak in the central Cascades. It was named in honor of the good Republican Jimmy Stewart, due to the impact his film roles had on cartographers.

...and its just the stupid trustifarian hippies with their dreadlocks, Prius's, backyard gardens, and Socialist ideals that have caused the poverty and war. It has nothing to do with corporate interests and stuff. case closed.
well if they are truly starving, then i'm sure they are. not that i would know anything about truly starving. i haven't skipped any meals except perhaps breakfast.
Quite the circular non-explanation there. Poverty and war cause...poverty and war.
Ending agricultural subsidies and eliminating tariffs that make it next to impossible for them to sell the stuff that they're good at growing - whether that turns out to be GMO crops or organic, GMO-free dreadlock-delousing paste - in the markets where they can secure the highest prices for them would be much more helpful than a set of cloistered first-world activists trying to make these choices for them.
jeez jay! didn't you get the memo? do you really still think the free market economy is the cure for everything?
plus they don't have the $ to buy a tv. one wonders how Africans ever survived before the world economy. they must have been in continual subsistence starvation, which I guess is different than actual starvation.
are we still paying companies to dump crops?
my main gripe with the engineered crops is the associated litigation and business practices of the companies engineering them. i.e. paying off 3rd world countries to grow only a single crop.
i.e. polluting the fields of farmers who choose not to buy and grow their seeds and then sueing them for "stealing" their product.
etc.
i haven't read the 8 point text, but economy of conagra etc is to farm up genetic mutations and pump them full of chemical fertilizers and ship them halfway across the country. have a garden in your backyard isn't going necessarily change the world, but i would feel better about it than driving a prius.
Even your post is green! 8 point type can save paper if choose to print it out, and saves screen space, thus reducing monitor output. Multiply this time the billions of monitors displaying CC.com, and you've just saved the planet.
