at KPL Forest Heights Branch, 251 Fischer-Hallman Road, Kitchener****

Proponents of genetically modified (GM) crops argue that we need the
technology to feed a growing population. But a deeper look at how GM crops
were developed, who owns them, and their socio-economic impact on
small-scale farmers, especially in developing countries, reveals a
different reality.****

Taarini Chopra<http://www.wrfoodsystem.ca/index.php?p=view_profile&member_id=68>will
use Indian and Canadian examples to examine the politics of GM foods,
and their promise to fight hunger and poverty.  Part of the Healthy Food
System series <http://www.wrfoodsystem.ca/kpl>, sponsored by the Waterloo
Region Food System Roundtable <http://www.wrfoodsystem.ca/> and the Kitchener
Public Library<http://www.kpl.org/programs/program_listings/fh.html#foodsystems>

Look for this and other upcoming Foodie events on the

Food System Roundtable.
