[All] Fw: Guelph events on GM foods Feb 7 and 9

[Robert Milligan]

Thanks Lulu & Eleanor,

The potential harm from accelerating GMO is too great to keep using  
words and tears only. Specific actions in the fields, in the streets,  
in the GMO criminal's offices, in the legislatures, in the courts, ...  
IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY FOR THE SAKE OF LIFE ON EARTH.

Maybe we could associate with Greenpeace Canada's anti-GMO efforts, http://www.greenpeace.org/canada/en/campaigns/ge/

Perhaps the more aggressive spirit of Earth First's  approach (http://www.earthfirst.org/about.htm 
) should be considered!!

The Sea Shepherd Society uses the UN's World Charter for Nature (1982)  
as a guide for direct action (http://www.seashepherd.org/who-we-are/mandate.html 
). Maybe we should be so influenced ourselves.

While being an umbrella environmental can be useful to our community,  
perhaps we need to do much more such as being an initiator of local  
Greenpeace Canada &/or EarthFirst chapters?

And please, no whimpy responses especially from those only  
superficially committed to the Environment.

Robert
