008 / GRAHAM WHITE
Graham White of the UK was the most intelligent and outspoken soldier for pollinators and nature. He was the most well-researched, well read and well rounded honeybee advocate who knew everything about the chemical industry's control of our food system. In this interview Graham speaks about the history of chemical agriculture, how the pest control industry took control of the Honeybee Associations in the US, Canada, the UK and the EU and why all you hear from Beekeeping Associations is a deafening silence about pesticides. He also outs the Entomologists from Public Universities for their cozy, 'friends with benefits' relationship with the chemical corporations who have infinite money to spend.
Graham passed away this year. Graham was my very wise friend. I learned a lot from him in hours long calls. We talked about the corruption of our food system and official Bayer/Monsanto enablers like COLOSS, BIP and Project Apis M. Toward the end of his life I asked if we could start recording our calls. I wished I'd done it sooner. I have two interviews and the 2nd one is coming soon. I don't know if anyone had such a reservoir of information on the poison industry. Graham is sorely missed.
