THE LABEL CAMPAIGN HAS HIT 1 MiILLION AND CONTINUES
TO SEEK YOUR VOICE IN TELLING THE FDA WE WANT GENETICALLY
ENGINEERED FOODS LABELED
Gary Hirshberg, one of many inspirations behind the success of the Label it! message to the FDA, in an inspired gift welcoming in the Post GMO era.
This is the year the FDA will receive our message. The key will be those of us who eat insisting we want GMOs labeled and then choosing to spend our dollars for Organic and Non GMO foods. Right now it takes a scholar to know which foods to eat to avoid GMOs.
MY KEYS TO WINNING THE CA LABEL GMOS BALLOT MEASURE
The Label It Campaign has been a collaborative effort of more than 500 groups coming together. I want to give props to many for this, and to Gary Hirshberg of Stonyfield who was among the panelists bringing a strong message of Unity to the recent #expowest in Anaheim.
At the Anaheim meeting March 8-11, the braintrust that will ensure victory for the California Label GMO Ballot Measure, and the Label It move all came together.
I will be uploading Here an inspired message from Gary Hirshberg speaking on a panel about Label It!
Until then, you can hear Gary's call for Unity at #expowest 2011 where his fired up message inspired all of us in the room of 500.
MY MESSAGE IS THAT WE HAVE REACHED THE TIPPING POINT AS WE ACKNOWLEDGE WE ARE ALL GROWING IN THE SAME POT
In my journeys everywhere this year, I have two plants I am sponsoring, one is Organic Korasan ancient wheat. There is legend that this was the ancient wheat that Noah the Prophet put on the Ark when he knew the flood was coming. We are in a flood now again, with the very essence of Democracy asking us to catch hold of the GMO issue. The Right to Know what is in our food is a powerful cry, that has widespread support from all sides.
It is time for the FDA and White house to recognize that it is time for
Uncle Sam To Marry 'Anti" GMO
GARY HIRSHBERG AND ORGANIC LEADERS WERE INSPIRING AT #EXPOWEST

(Reuters) - Critics of genetically modified crops are making new demands for government mandated labeling to identify foods on grocer shelves that contain ingredients from transgenic corn, soybeans and other crops.
Labeling drives are underway on both state and federal levels, and on Tuesday several U.S. consumer groups released a survey and results of a petition drive that they say shows overwhelming consumer support for labeling of foods containing genetically modified organisms (GMO).
