Label GMO's - NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT!

I have been working as a volunteer to help gather signatures to put a GMO Labeling Initiative on the November 2012 California ballot and to share important information about GMO foods.

WHAT IS A GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOOD?

A genetically engineered food is a plant or meat product that has had its DNA artificially altered by genes from other plants, animal, viruses, or bacteria, in order to produce foreign compounds in that food.  This type of genetic alteration is not found in nature.  Today, as much as 85% of corn, and a majority of soy in the U.S. is genetically engineered to either withstand increased amounts of pesticides or to produce its own pesticide.  Some of our most important staple food crops are being fundamentally altered, but without proper labeling.  We have no way of knowing which ones are being altered.

Today in the United States, by the simple act of feeding ourselves, we unwittingly participate in the largest experiment ever conducted on human beings.

Before being added to our food supply in the 1990's genetically engineered food (GE or GMO) had NO INDEPENDENT RESEARCH done on the long-term multi-generational effects on HUMAN BEINGS!

If we are going to be treated like guinea pigs, then at least give us labeling so that accurate health data can be collected and analyzed.  We want to exercise our right to choose whether or not to participate in this experiment, and invite the consequences.

NOW IS THE TIME TO TAKE A STAND

Look for and sign petitions to put the labeling initiative on the November 2012 California ballot.

Vote YES to label Genetically ENgineered Food (GE or GMO's)

WORLD VIEW:

All 27 countries in the European Union, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and other countries (50 in all) require mandatory labeling of biotech's proteins since no long-term human studies were conducted to prove that they were safe.

I cannot stress enough how important it is that we as citizens get involved and act now.
