Hawaii standing up to GMO poisoning: calling for GMO labels

JanforGore
The people of Hawaii are standing up against years of GMO poisoning and open field testing with lack of regulation and labelling. This is not just an issue of democracy but of culture and morality.

University of Hawaii students assembled a stone platform with a wooden statue known as a "ki`i" on the grounds of the state Capitol to speak to politicians regarding the bills in legislature that are being held up by the Agriculture chairman.

    • Here is the sort list of what they are screwing with here in Texas. ..........Due to the Confidential Business Information [CBI ] status of biotech permits now, much information on where specific trials are being conducted is being withheld. To learn more about the locations of these trials, one must go directly to the company for the locations. The Texas Department of Agriculture can verify that Biotech research is being conducted on the following crops in Texas:

      Research Crops: Beets Corn Cotton Canola Citrus Melons Rice Potatoes Onions Sunflower Squash Sugarcane Soybeans Tomatoes Tobacco
      Areas of Research include:Stacked genes for multiple insect and weed pests Yield enhancements Fiber quality Stress tolerance Herbicide tolerance Controlled fruit ripening Virus resistance

      They're doing that everywhere. Trials are kept secret to avoid activism to pull them out. They've been contaminating land for years doing this secretive c*8 and then have the nerve to sue farmers who lose their livelihoods because of it.
