Digg question for Al Gore on the global food crisis

JanforGore
Thank you for the opportunity to hopefully have this question asked of Mr. Gore on Digg. Through so many years he has been and will continue to be a voice of reason and a great inspiration to me.

    • Thank you. It would be great to hear his views on this most important topic since GMOS tie together the food and water crises and also climate change as it appears Monsanto and other agro-business companies are now using climate change as an excuse to buy up rights to seeds and to push ethanol. And also, the patenting of seeds and the buying up of water rights is also an environmental democracy issue as well. Many countries in Africa are being bullied into accepting GM seeds with the people having no voice (with farmers in this country and abroad being sued for transgenic pollution they had no part in). This is why people all over the world including states in our own country now (California, Hawaii) are now rejecting them. This is also why I believe any new global climate treaty must include a declaration against GMOs as well in regards to biodiversity. They are not needed to feed people. We have enough food to feed our world if we would stand up for people in developing countries having access to it and the education and tools required to grow their own locally!

    • one way we can all do the same thing is to start attending the town hall meetings our local reps have and senators and ask them the same question. If they get asked often enough they may start doing something about it.

    • I'm working on it. Working on a flyer now and would like to get a group together to put pressure on the new administration regarding legislation Dennis Kucinich is supporting. I'll give more information on it as I can. Thanks, onechance.

    • Right on Jan. It's time to get this issue to the forefront. They've been silently profitting off of the destruction of our world and our health by pumping this stuff out ther and turning a profit. It's criminal. Thank you for doing our work for us. You are awesome.

      If you start any groups against this garbage, I'll join.
