On Saturday, September 12th, the world lost a great man. Norman Borlaug developed new ways of using biotechnology to literally save millions of people from starving to death.
In his honor we devote the entire video round up to Mr. Borlaug …
ABC News included Norman Borlaug in its remembrances this week. Hear the whole story from this video from WorldFoodPrize.
Everyone should watch Penn + Teller’s remembrance of Mr. Borlaug who they call the greatest man that ever lived … by the way, this is a good piece to share with the anti biotech ag folks.
To hear the benefits of biotech agriculture in Mr. Borlaug’s own words, go to this piece in Bioconversations.
Check out a tribute to Mr. Borlaug from the West Wing … albeit a television one … the story of Mr. Borlaug’s saving Africa is true.
You would do well today watching these videos and sharing them with others.
No person ever embodied the spirit of IAmBiotech than Dr. Norman Borlaug. We are thankful for his passion, persistence, and dedication to serving others. And our hearts go out to the loved ones he left behind.
