Over 300,000 People Tell the FDA to Label GMOs

02 Nov, 2011

Just Label it!October has ended and with it the first month of the Just Label It cam­paign, with spec­tac­u­lar results. Over 300,000 peo­ple have signed the peti­tion to com­pel the FDA to do its fidu­ciary duty and require label­ing of foods that con­tain GMO ingredients.

More than 450 part­ner com­pa­nies and orga­ni­za­tions have been par­tic­i­pat­ing in this push, includ­ing Natural Vitality and Organic Connections.

But a lot more still has to be done. Over 300,000 sig­na­tures is a fan­tas­tic start.

November is a month that brings with it even more asso­ci­a­tion with food and healthy eat­ing. The national event of Thanksgiving can also serve as a spring­board for increas­ing the demand for safe and healthy foods.

We Are the Real Power

Remember, as mas­sive and pow­er­ful as the multi­na­tional Biotech com­pa­nies are, they are only as pow­er­ful as we grant them access to our wal­lets. There is not a com­pany on the face of the planet that can stand up to con­sumer pref­er­ence. This is of course why these same com­pa­nies are so vehe­mently opposed to label­ing foods that con­tain their products.

Another thing to remem­ber is that not every­one in agen­cies like the FDA and USDA have been bought off by these companies.

Despite our (jus­ti­fi­able) cyn­i­cal view of the cor­rup­tion insin­u­ated into these agen­cies by the covert and egre­gious actions of the Biotech giants, a large major­ity of the staff at the agen­cies are well-meaning, car­ing indi­vid­u­als with a sense of duty. But they are some­times fight­ing bat­tles against strate­gi­cally placed cronies and need the empow­er­ment that our col­lec­tive voices can generate.

So, let’s keep up the push and redou­ble the relay­ing of this mes­sage to your friends and their friends, every­one we know that wants to eat healthy, safe foods.

Being part of a med­ical exper­i­ment usu­ally requires informed con­sent on the part of the par­tic­i­pant. The Biotech giants have been sub­ject­ing the entire food-buying pub­lic of this coun­try and Canada to a sci­ence exper­i­ment for more than a decade and a half.

Wouldn’t you say it’s time to shut down Dr. Frankenfood’s lab?
