March against Monsanto taking place everywhere May 25
(NaturalNews) With President Obama's recent signing of the Monsanto
Protection Act, food safety advocates are up in arms. As GMOs fill
grocery store shelves at an alarming rate, more people are growing aware
of the health risks associated with genetically altered organisms.
People are growing tired of this disease-promoting, genetically
manipulated food. They are sick of controlling multinational
corporations like Monsanto dictating their food supply. That's why on
May 25th 2013, rallies across the world are organizing, from Australia
to Germany, from New York to California. A March against Monsanto is
expected to take place.
How important is real, organic food to
you? Do you want to support small farmers and their independence? Do you
want to protect the future of the seed and health of your family?
Research - look for ways to speak up and make a difference. Join a march against Monsanto rally on May 25th in your city:
http://occupy-monsanto.com/tag/march/ Monsanto Protection Act awakening the republicThis
new "Monsanto Protection Act" signed on March 26th, 2013, gives
executive powers to the USDA that grant permission to companies like
Monsanto to sell its genetically modify seed to farmers without any
judicial accountability. The provision is written in a way to assure
farmers a profitable and safe venture with GMO seed, but in reality,
this law is designed to grant GMO producers like Monsanto legal immunity
from the health problems their products will cause down the road.
This
provision removes the judicial system from the picture, allowing
Monsanto to dominate agriculture, selling genetically altered seed to
farmers and damaging human genes - all without any real justice.
U.S.
Senator and family farmer Jon Tester, spoke out on the Senate floor,
"The United States Congress is telling the Agricultural Department that
even if a court tells you that you've failed to follow the right process
and tells you to start over, you must disregard the court's ruling and
allow the crop to be planted anyway. Not only does this ignore the
constitutional idea of separation of powers, but it also lets
genetically modified crops take hold across this country, even when a
judge finds it violates the law," Tester said.
Tester's concerns
were apparently disregarded. Five days later, Obama signed the Monsanto
Protection Act into law, ignoring the scientific evidence GMOs have on
human health. Now multinational corporations like Monsanto have legal
permission to make farmers their serfs, and to use the population as a
science experiment with their altered, disease-spreading seed.
Government complying to Monsanto's demands, despite health risksDave
Murphy, founder of Food Democracy Now, said, "I think the Monsanto
Protection Act, how it was passed and how it was slipped into law is
just another example of how this company (Monsanto) operates, how they
manipulate our democracy, and how they buy off our elected officials."
It's
apparent. The industry demands profit. Instead of upholding justice,
the government is bought off to pass laws that permit companies like
Monsanto to trample the people's health and environment. For example,
scientists indicate that the world's bee population is collapsing due to
the presence of genetically modified seed. Altered food is also linked
to serious health conditions such as the development of cancer, tumors,
infertility and birth defects.

http://www.naturalnews.com/monsanto.html March against MonsantoHow can people everywhere stop this mad machine from controlling the world's seed?
• Is it time to spend an extra dollar, buying only real, organic food?
•
Is it time for a warning label to be required on all products that
contain genetically modified food? This would help consumers make more
informed decisions.
• Is it time to pressure the government to repeal
the provisions of the Monsanto Protection Act? The provision is
temporary and is likely to come back up for a re-authorization vote in
September 2013.
• Is it time to write and inform others about GMOS,
making more scientific studies available to people everywhere about the
negative health effects of GMOs?
• Is it time to hold Monsanto executives accountable through bold, direct communication?
•
Is it time to take the action to the streets in peaceful protest,
shining a light on Monsanto's influence over government and their direct
contribution to disease in the world?
