"Agent Orange" Corn is bad, we don't want to see what's next. Donate to help fight genetically engineered foods!
Help keep GE sweet corn and other untested foods off your plate Donate today! February 23, 2011 Dear Indiana, I was shocked to find out that crops are now being genetically engineered to withstand "Agent Orange". We have to stop this craziness! Nearly 100,000 of our supporters like you have taken action to keep Monsanto's genetically engineered sweet corn off the grocery store shelves, but more and more GE crops, like Agent Orange corn, keep getting pushed through the approval process. Food & Water Watch is here to unite all of us who are against these untested, unlabeled science experiments, and to make our collective voice heard. Can you make a donation today to stop more genetically engineered foods from reaching your plate? In the last year alone, the USDA has approved nine new genetically engineered crops, including Monsanto's genetically engineered sweet corn, and they are considering the approval of 20 additional crops, including Dow's "Agent Orange Corn." We have slowed or stopped some new products, like GE salmon, but USDA makes it too easy for new GE crops to get approved. If we want to stop this rubber-stamp approval cycle, we need a national grassroots organizing campaign to bring people together and make our voices heard. That's just what Food & Water Watch is doing. We're bringing together concerned citizens like you from across the country to fight for good food, but we need your support to make it happen. Starting today, we have over 500 activists who are delivering more than 70,000 petition signatures to their local Walmart stores. Together, we got more than 3,300 phone calls in to Walmart's customer service demanding that they not sell GE Sweet Corn. Walmart is hearing us... but we are up against Monsanto and other corporate giants who have seemingly endless resources to push their products. We need to fight them with everything we have. Will you help us win by donating $35 or more to fight GE foods? With your donation, we'll be able to train more activists, deliver more petitions, and most importantly, stage events at Walmart stores across the country during our national Day of Action on March 17. Your support is especially critical to Food & Water Watch as an organization, because we don't take any money from corporations or the government. We depend on individuals like you for donations to help us continue the fight for good food. Donate to help us keep GE foods off the shelves and off your plate: https://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/1185/p/salsa/donation/common/public/?donate_page_KEY=8334 Thanks for taking action, Wennonah Hauter Executive Director Food & Water Watch wenonah(at)fwwatch(dot)org
