AGENT GREENThe US biological weapons project that refuses to die.
Plan was defeated by NGOs and indigenous people in 2001; but US diplomats renew pressure on Colombia.
Biological weapons are currently being tested to kill illicit crops of coca, opium poppy, and cannabis in forced crop eradication programs. These pathogenic fungi were developed principally by the US for use in narcotics-producing areas globally; but especially Asia and South America. The agents threaten to legitimize agricultural biowarfare, are environmentally unsafe, and threaten wild plants and agriculture in fragile and biodiverse ecosystems. They also endanger human health and, most importantly, threaten the global ban on biological weapons.
