A Heartbreaking Defeat. An Urgent Opportunity.

On the evening of November 7, 2012, I sat somberly in a press conference in San Francisco, surrounded by people I'd been working side-by-side with for nearly a year. We'd just narrowly lost (48.5% to 51.5%) a hard-fought, grassroots campaign to our

Why is this campaign important to you?

I did a term paper on Genetically Modified Foods and the stuff I learned in my reseach was so frightening. The power that Monsanto holds over the well being of our lives is incredible. It has seeped into and is controling so many variables in our world/nation that most people picking an item off the grocery store shelf have no idea the choices have already been made for them. And we call ourselves a democracy!

Yes! Governments run our countries and corporations run our governments. The time for voting at polling stations is long gone. It is time to vote with our purchasing habits. Take the time to understand which companies Monsanto own and boycott them from your shopping baskets.
Things are topsy turvy but they will only be put right but enough of us waking up and acting. And time is running out.

Get rid of congress as it is and start over with the kind of people who can and will help. Just say enough is enough and push restart. We in Canada will have to do the same other wise get used to it I guess. We need a BIG Global push on this and say NO.

Got no place for trees, and have to have the apples. medical need.

Montsanto must Stop these job : earth don't need it!

You have my attention with this one! Daddy Bush has been on the board of this company from its inception, and one of the first things he did when elected was have GMO seeds cleared to go to market. The problems that have bean caused by this company are legion!

Melody Park

Not that I don't beleave you at all... but can you please add or put in links to info sources for what you are claiming about Bush. ( I think he is definately capable of this degree of evil, just want to have facts so I can pass on to nae sayers if I find any) Thank you heaps for sharing :)melody

Tom Shanti

Melody. See link below. No proof that he was/is on the board but I wouldn't be surprised. The amount of incest between the FSA & the major players in GMO and agrichemicals is shocking, from what I've read, and how can that be right? Talk about conflict of interests!!

Just makes me want to VOMIT!!! Well, those with the most money want de-population. This is just one more way to do it along with Chemical Trails in the sky that are purposley being sprayed around the globe!!

Planet earth and the life that breathes on it are a creation. This creation is beautiful and amazing but a very, very complex one. Its complexity is of such a nature that human beings do not understand it (yet). Breaking the rules of nature can have unpredictable negative results that might become impossible to reverse. Let's do our best to raise consciousness about Monsanto's criminal activities. Thanks for reading my post. God bless.

Melody Park

Thank you for your post. I agree wholey

Nancy Antia

Thanks, Melody. Let's do what we can to stop Monsanto.

No estoy de acuerdo por el gran negociado que se esta haciendo y principalmente por la salud de la humanidad, y por el daño ecologico que estan causando con esto.Tenemos que unirnos todos e impedir estos expeirmentos!
