LoveClicks.org FOOD One Man Holds a PATENT That Could Crush MONSANTO and Change The World BY ADMIN · MARCH 6, 2015
This may be some of the most important information we ever share here at LoveClicks.org. What you are about to read holds tremendous potential to radically change the entire world in many positive ways.
Monsanto does not want this article to go viral, for if it does, it could very well bring about their demise.
paul-stamets-mushrooms
In 2006 a patent was granted to a man named Paul Stamets. Even though Paul is the world’s leading mycologist, his patent has received very little attention and exposure. Why? As stated by executives in the pesticide industry, this patent represents “the most disruptive technology we have ever witnessed.” And when they say disruptive, they are referring to it being disruptive to their chemical pesticides industry.
We can no longer deny that the pesticide industry is causing incredibly detrimental effects to the earth, people, animals, plants & insects too. The rapid decline of the world’s bee populations is being attributed to Monsanto’s chemical concoctions that are being sprayed over farmers fields around the world. (Though the number of countries who have kicked out & banned Monsanto is growing) The use of chemical pesticides is a practice that absolutely must stop and new methods must be employed before it’s too late.
Yet with Monsanto generating nearly $16 BILLION dollars in 2014, they certainly do not want anything getting in the way of that money flow. That kind of revenue gives them a lot of resources and abilities to suppress information that may be damaging to them.
Like this patent of Paul Stamet’s. Paul has figured out how to use mother nature’s own creations to keep insects from destroying crops. It is what’s being called SMART pesticides. These biopesticides provide a safe & nearly permanent solution for controlling over 200,000 species of insects, and it is all thanks to the ‘magic’ of mushrooms.
I won’t go into the specifics of how it all works, for most of us won’t really understand it anyway, but to summarize, he does this by taking entomopathogenic Fungi (fungi that destroys insects) and morphs it into not producing spores. This in turn actually attracts the insects who then eat and turn into fungi from the inside out!
paul-stamet-change-the-world-1 paul-stamet-change-the-world-2
For those who do want to do their own further reseach on the topic, I have provided a list of links below to help you along.
As more people wake up to the damaging effects of Monsanto’s chemicals & GMO foods, the demand for truly nutritious, pesticide free, non-gmo, organic foods is on the rise. We are seeing more community gardens & urban forests being created. More people are starting to grow food, not lawns. Permaculture is becoming more widely talked about and understood. There is a major paradigm shift happening right now as our collective consciousness expands and awakens.
These truly are exciting, monumental times we live in. We are seeing old world ways crumble and power structures fall as we wake up and step up to collectively create a more healthy and sustainable way of working, living & playing together on this planet. The time has come. We can do this!
Here is a link to the patent we are speaking of: 7,122,176 http://www.google.com/patents/US7122176
A list of all the patents Paul has applied for: http://patents.justia.com/inventor/paul-edward-stamets

I would think discussion on this board of the practical home practice and use of this concept to prevent bugs in the garden and at home. The final concept they write about destroying termites seems quite easy to replicate and a simple to create safe termite solution would be a lifesaver, especially those lacking money or health.

<-- im saving to move to florida.
when i do, i'm going to do a back to eden style garden.
right now, i have ants in my house because using anything other than the ant bait might kill my reptiles and birds.
i have been seriously waiting for him to do something other than SIT On that patent for years.
and im not saying i check every day, but i get the fungi perfecti catalog. and i havent seen anything in it.

well the fruit flys we get (because gasp we buy fruit and dont use pesticides)...
get killed eventually by apple cider vinegar left in bottles.
the ants are eating the borax but they dont seem to die. (they are the bane of my kitchen).. everything has to be in sealed containers, everything has to stay clean. and still...ants
i make my own soap ... shrug its almost natural. it has btms50 in it, which is not natural but has no environmental impact. the soap i make is waaaaaay better on my skin tho, i used to have horrible eczema all my life until i started making this stuff.. took me 3 years to get the forumla right so it doesnt separate.

If it actually worked like it's supposed to it'd be in use. It's a proof of concept thing. Also, pesticides aren't what they used to be. They go through crazy amounts of testing (well, except the organic pesticides...) before they can be used commercially.
This is hippie propaganda.

cordyceps fungi and other species that invade specific species of insects are not hippie propaganda, they actually do exist! it would be nice to see it on the market once things are yakno, perfected.

i had read this site before i found the original article, it's about using species specific cordyceps to eliminate fire ants from your yard. it too says Quote:
"Major chemical companies are fighting patent holders like Paul Stamets from being able to market it to the public but with any luck it will be available soon. If you would like to hear Paul talk about this and other mycoremediation uses for mushrooms, you can watch his TED talk here. The entire thing is mind-blowing but skip to the 12:58 mark if you just want to hear about pesticide applications."

Let me know when fungi boy makes something that deters and kills bugs relevant to me; mosquitoes and fire ants. Until he actually puts this into practice, this is nothing but sensationalistic hype and should be disregarded.

Sorry, I have a justified habit of skipping most of what you post. Like others, the obnoxious clickbait title drew me in. It is absolutely adorable that anyone things some blithering moron with some mushrooms will topple BIG MEAN MONSANTO, though.
Also, the alleged ant-slaying fungi takes up to three weeks to "work". I can use chemicals to accomplish the same thing in a matter of minutes. Oh, right, and it clearly says it's "not available". That does make the speculation rather pointless for the time being.

Yes, pure hype.
I saw Paul speak in Chicago a few weeks ago, and he mentioned this article and rolled his eyes.

I don't think a product is forthcoming either.
Paul has patented it, which might stop others from doing the same thing.
But during his talk I think he said he was going to open up all his patents, which would be great because then no one else could patent these things.
I am still not totally convinced this mycopesticide thing works very well in the real world.

If someone is going to save up they should move somewhere awesome like Oregon or California or Mexico City.

Most species of cordyceps afaik only target a few specific insect groups?
That could be both useful, or burdensome depending on the application.

I think the blame should be laid on the people who ordered the chemical and sprayed it. Monsanto is just a chemical company, if they hadn't sold it to the government some other company would have.

Somewhat off-topic but I'm tired of this 'Monsanto being burnt at the stake' for any and everything purportedly negative to do with plants and agriculture. Anyway Monsanto wasn't the company that produced the dioxin contaminated Agent Orange. They may have questionable business practices but transgenic crops are not and have never been shown to be "bad" or "unhealthy" simply because of the way in which they were created.

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agent_Orange, it does appear that Monsanto sold some of the dioxin contaminated agent orange.

I think the blame should be laid on the people who ordered the chemical and sprayed it. Monsanto is just a chemical company, if they hadn't sold it to the government some other company would have.
You're right. I think though, that if monsanto willingly made the products knowing the intents and purposes by the US government i would think that it would still cast some fault on them... Then again the government doesn't really let the people making the orders for them know what they are being used for as everything is compartmentalized.

I agree, though by that logic bomb manufacturers should be held accountable for their unethical ways of making profit at the expense of human lives.
It is amazing to me that so many people hate Monsanto, but few hate the weapons manufacturers. As if it is worse to switch a few DNA base pairs around than it is to make explosives that you know are going to be dropped on people.

I think monsanto is doing a really amazing thing in a field where no one has gone before on such scales. A big problem the is the word "GMO" and the irrational fear or bad connotation attached to it IMO.
People just latch onto GMO like a political movement with out listening for one second about what monsanto has to say. Plus what other scientist in the field think about it who actually have a qualified opinion to comment on such things.

Apology for my misunderstanding, thanks for the correction.
