What action has been taken to try and prevent the technology developing?

What action has been taken to try and prevent the technology developing?

the Obama administration has failed to respond to the public outcry against GMO's some states are starting to take action in places like Washington state where over 90 percent of the consumer base is demanding that items containing genetically modified organisms be labeled to warn people about what they are buying. Measure 522 would require not only all the foods containing GMO's to be labeled, but seeds and seed stock as well. The wildly popular measure has been targeted for opposition by the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) who, not surprisingly, is representing the special interests with their own motivations for defeating labeling measures. But who is behind the

On October 18, 2013 the state's Attorney General sued the GMA, accusing them of violating federal campaigning laws which require such organizations to publicly disclose their list of donors. A list that the GMA fought to keep hidden from voters and consumers a like. Once the law suit was in play, the GMA agreed to finally release the list of names which was published by the Seattle Times and reads like a who's who list of food manufacturing companies with many contributing upwards of $1million or more to prevent consumers from learning what is in the food they sell them. Names like Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Co, Mars Bar, Nestle, Con-Agra, General Mills, and Campbell Soup were just a few of the companies on the list.


Stop the GM Apple
 

1. Write to your provincial agriculture minister and ask them to take action to protect the apple growers in your area from the GM apple.
2. Write or call your federal Member of Parliament. You can look up their contacts using your postal code at www.parl.gc.ca
3. In BC, you can join provincial action here.

FOR	AGAINST	FACKTS
GM foods are made to last longer, have more nutrients and taste better	destroy at least 125 million tons each year of the world's top five foods.
Genetically modified are not harmful because they have been modifying foods for centuries with no known harmful effects.	60% to 70% of processed foods on U.S. grocery shelves have genetically modified ingredients.
Genetically modified foods have been tested over and over again. Never revealing any problems	The protesters destroyed 1,000 square meters of Golden Rice, a variety genetically engineered to cut down on vitamin A deficiency.
the crops will have a higher quantity when harvested	GM foods cause cancer or allergies
Growing food with GMOs can result in better-tasting fruits and vegetables that stay fresh longer and are naturally resistant to insects.	three-quarters of Americans have concerns about genetically modified organisms in their food
Plant breeding also results in crops better able to withstand the environmental challenges of drought, disease and insect infestations.	most are worried about health effects

What are the problems with this technology?

What are the problems with this technology?

• Animals have become seriously ill or died from GE foods like bees and butterflies 
• GMOs cross pollinate and their seeds can travel.
• GMOs harm the environment.
• GM crops and their associated herbicides can harm birds, insects, amphibians, marine ecosystems, and soil organisms
• A lot of food that we eat today contains genetically modified ingredients and usually without our knowledge.
• The problem of food shortages is a political and economic problem.
• Food shortages and hunger are -- and will be -- experienced by the poorer nations.
• GE Food is an expensive technology that the farmers of the developing nations would not be able to afford easily.

key :

Genetically Engineered (GE) = Genetically Modified (GM)
