Add those concerns to the list.

The type of commodity cash crops that rely heavily on inputs such as genetically engineered seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides. These are the types of farms that are also contributing to climate change. Though estimates vary, large-scale agriculture contributes one-third to one-half of climate changing emissions.

It therefore is flawed and slanted toward commerce rather than the common person.

Fracking will continue to decimate countries and the environment, as usual, will suffer under the huge burden that Corporations will impart on small countries. This is wrong in every way!!!
