Monsanto
Monsanto Company is a publicly traded American multinational agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology corporation headquartered in Creve Coeur, Greater St. Louis, Missouri. It is a leading producer of genetically engineered (GE) seed and Roundup, a glyphosate-based herbicide. Monsanto's role in agricultural changes, biotechnology products, lobbying of government agencies, and history as a chemical company have made the company controversial.
Founded in 1901 by John Francis Queeny, Monsanto initially produced food additives like saccharin and vanillin, expanded into industrial chemicals like sulfuric acid and PCBs in the 1920s, and by the 1940s was a major producer of plastics, including polystyrene and synthetic fibers. Notable achievements by Monsanto and its scientists as a chemical company included breakthrough research on catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation and being the first company to mass-produce light emitting diodes (LEDs). The company also formerly manufactured controversial products such as the insecticide DDT, PCBs, Agent Orange, and recombinant bovine somatotropin (a.k.a. bovine growth hormone).
Kinder Der Nacht
you can not sleep -
Although you are so tired yet?
Then come with me
and I'll show the rest of the world!
Without shadows, because no light falls,
it is more easily through the world
In my veins pure ethanol
tarred lungs farewell
I am a child of the night
Brother of Sleep is death!
I am a child of the night
If the dawn I ...
Since then I re-invented
my old skin no longer fits
A dress of pale meat scraps -
For something new now is the time!
This is not a hymn
There is despair in the end
And are dus sorry I let you here
It further accuses me (do not stay here!)
Step by step
Piece by piece
decays away the life of happiness
The light it hurts, because it is wrong
We move on here it's cold!
I am a child of the night
Brother of Sleep is death!
I am a child of the night
If the dawn I ...
Since then I re-invented
my old skin no longer fits
A dress of pale meat scraps -
For something new now is the time!
When birds sing, the day awakes
