Resistance is growing!

21.05.2003 14:34

Not only GM crops, but resistance and direct action against these plants is growing. Anti-GM protesters destroyed the last GM-field in Scotland last week, in direct response to negotiations of the WTO to force GM crops into our food.

In Brazil landless farmers invaded a Monsanto Brazilian biotech test farm to replace it with organic farming. In the UK the headquarters of Bayer was blockaded and simultaneously protests took place at the company in Germany.

Most of the public continue to be critical of GM crops, yet their opinion has again been ignored or reinterpretated by politicians obeying economic pressure rather than enforcing their voters views.
