Between the two petitions that you have signed, we have almost reached 1000 signatures. This petition shall inevitably meet with considerable resistance until more of the general population, and particulary our farm community, become educated.
Please take the time to share with folks...tell them what you have learned. Give them the link to a very well done film that points to genetically engineered foods as a major contributor to rising disease rates in the US population, especially among children. Gastrointestinal disorders, allergies, inflammatory diseases, and infertility are just some of the problems implicated in humans, pets, livestock, and lab animals that eat genetically modified soybeans and corn.
Monsanto’s strong arm tactics, the FDA’s fraudulent policies, and how the USDA ignores a growing health emergency are also laid bare. This sometimes shocking film may change your diet, help you protect your family, and accelerate the consumer tipping point against genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Don’t miss this film! http://permaculture.tv/genetic-roulette-prop-37/
Now that the holidays are over, we can all get on with some of the challenges we face as individuals and community participants. We can change the future...ony if we act in the present!
Thank you for making your voices heard on this important issue!
