‘Monsanto, l’estratègia de posar la vida en perill’ (‘Monsanto, the strategy of putting life at risk’) Conference given by Gustavo Duch. Related with Pablo E. Piovano’s exhibition, “The human cost of agrochemicals”.

«I won’t talk about scientific studies that prove the effects of the poisons that industrial and globalized agriculture uses to make money while nourishing us. Because even though they are many, they are irrelevant when the evidences are the faces we can see in this exhibition. And they are as certain as irrefutable. We’ll talk about why this chemical genocide and who is behind.»
