    Fantastic explainer with great animations. I also love the eye for detail when they draw a Chrysoperla carnae larvae when mentioning beneficial insects.

    Great video, good job on the animation and making the topics clear. I think more research on plant RNAi needs to be done to gauge the safety and efficacy prior to human testing.

    I wonder what else they’re testing on us at our expense. This is scary can we really don’t know what they’re doing any way to get more data is they need to test it and we are Their subjects. It’s all about efficiency our money not our lives.

    Gee, what could go wrong. Many of us are the woman in the drawings. Never had trouble with food before but now many of them put me in the hospital.
