Gw pharma had received 5 USA patents for strains of cannabis last week"THEY" are not doing anything to cannabis, not to patent it, and not to destroy it.
"terminator" seed technology does not exterminate a plant species. it prevents those plants with the gene from producing viable seeds.
it is "copy protection" for GM crops, due to many persons saving and replanting GM seeds in violation of the contract they sign when buying GM seeds.
"terminator" seeds dont destroy the other non-gm crops around them any more than copy protection on a Jethro Tull CD destroys your guitar and breaks your fingers "just to be sure" that you dont try and form a cover band.
further, the "patenting food" claim is specious and retarded.
specific GM crop genetic alterations can be patented, but this does not give the patent holder rights over the entire species.
