If this bill passes the house, it will go to the Senate... and then into law!
Kaua`i is ground zero for the experimental field tests and we must lead disclosure and legislation of this irresponsible technology. For more information, go to capitol.hawaii.gov and type in HB 174 or visit us on facebook at GMO Free Kauai.
Please call our reps today and ask for their support to begin a labeling system to more easily identify GMO foods.
Image above: Crowds are growing bigger as more and more people are getting involved in actions and events against GMOs. Some 600 people MARCHED through Haleiwa town this Sat. and held a rally at the haleiwa beach park.
PROTESTS AGAINST GMOs THIS WEEK END IN HALEIWA AND KAUAI:
WHAT:
Join Hawaii SEED and others for the "March in March"
WHEN:
this Saturday, March 9, 2013 at noon
WHERE:
in Poipu at noon near the Hyatt on Poipu Road.
Kaua`i grown potluck to follow at Poipu Beach Park.
Mahalo to Dustin Barca and Ohana o Kaua`i and Walter Ritte!
The movement is growing.
