Acting for the environment wrote:Why this campaign?
France should soon transpose a European directive relating to the dissemination of GMOs in the environment. In the light of a recent parliamentary report, there is reason to fear that a lax law concerning the coexistence between GMO and non-GMO cultures (conventional and organic), which will evade the question of responsibility in the event of contamination and therefore of the methods of preserving the environment and existing agrarian systems, is not promulgated.
While parliamentarians fill their lack of independence with editorial stakhanovism leading them to produce report on report, certain regions adopt resolutions and wishes proposing a limitation of the dissemination of GMOs.
The spread of GMOs in nature is irreversible: this technology will therefore inevitably impose itself on those who have not chosen it, on those who refuse it. To protect itself from biotechnological irreversibility and guarantee everyone the right to information on what they eat, France must adopt regulations prohibiting any dissemination, from fork to fork, from field to table. The risk of genetic contamination must be subject to truly dissuasive legal provisions to preventively prevent genetic pollution by irreversible and self-propagating essence.
To better understand, I put the link of campaign pdf...
The ACTION proposed consists in sending to your deputy, to your president of region and to the presidents of AOC and LABELS ROUGE a "postcard" indicating your will to "prevent a genetically modified law" !!
It will cost you the price of 4 stamps ... (2 €, that remains reasonable, right? ;-))
Anti-LoiOGM postcard
Not sure how to find your MP's name? Nothing's easier
National Assembly
Do not forget to notify us when you have performed this action, it is more motivating ... ;-)
