(NaturalNews) It has been more than two years since the biotechnology company AquAdvantage first petitioned the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to approve its genetically-engineered (GE) salmon AquaBounty for human consumption, and the agency still has not given the "Frankenfish" the green light, thanks in large part to continued public pressure against its approval.
But now that nearly 50 percent of AquAdvantage has been purchased by another biotechnology company with strong ties to Monsanto, it is clear that revived industry pressures will be pushing more strongly than ever to get this GE salmon approved, which means the public needs to step up its game now to demand that the FDA immediately ban this dangerous fish from the food supply.
