CLOSE THE GAP
A TIPPING POINT HAS BEEN REACHED.
ALL TOGETHER NOW STANDING UP FOR NATURE'S ORIGINAL TECHNOLOGY
each of us being an ORGANIC UPRISING!
I claim now we are One Organic Movement, Organic Uprising!
We are one movement, from grassroots to beet tops.
I See and Seed that our President, who we elected on a platform
of Hope and doing Good for all of us, is standing with us now in the name of
Food Justice.
I See and Seed now that we live in a world of friends,
that industry and international corporations
will stand with all of us now
turning our beat around with nature.
Let it be known we have reached a Tipping Point,
and that for the sake of our beloved earth,
we are turning away from technology that harms any of us.
We have gone as far as we can go with Take One
on planet Earth. We have reached a time for a Take Two for Planet Earth.
The world has been galvanized by events of March 11,
when earth quake hit Japan. On that same day,
key organic Industry leaders shared an inspired message
at the #expowest,
the Natural Product Expo West.
They were looking at the Political Challenge of GMO’s.
We claim this moment as one we owe our children.
We claim thisas a time for action.
We need a government leadership that supports Food Justice
and Real Food Safety.
Leadership and all industry
are called now to be the Tipping Point
through dreams we plant now,
so Plant Your Dream.
If we had merely suffered an earthquake on March 11
that would have been disaster enough, but as a lifestyle,
we have been living as an earthquake waiting to happen.
It is time to Shift.
A little more than a year ago, I stood with Dr. Robert Fraley,
the creator
of Round Up Ready for Monsanto. We planted seeds to close the gap
and ease the tension between GMO and Non GMO lovers.
it is through an open and honest Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Food, that our world will be saved,
but more than this, it will be saved by more of us turning our own beat around with nature
and creating strong local community.
To stand in community, we each need a moment of awakening
that comes when we grow a bit of our own food.
Even growing
one beet in a pot surrounded by alfalfa seeds is a start.
Less words are needed now.
Radiation is releasing into our oceans off Japan.
We lived in a climate coming from the White House itself
that imagined
Genetically Modified Organisms might be good for our economy.
That is our past. It is in each other’s dreams that we are asked to invest.
It is time to return to the Bank of Compost.
GMO is not the wave of our future because
we have a future together on this
earth.
The earth already has a perfect technology for growing dreams and feeding dreams whole, pure,
and natural food. Nuclear power is not the wave of our future.
Nature’s Original Technology is best suited for this earth.
Let us close the gap now in understanding.
Let us, all of us, from our President, his First Lady,
to the heads of industry,
proclaim we are Standing Up for Nature’s Original Technology,
each of us being an Organic Uprising!

ALFALFA SETBACK HAS HOPEFUL REPERCUSSIONS
AS INDUSTRY LEADERS UNITE TO COUNTER THREAT
--Anthony Zolezzi ZCause Blog
March 14, 2011
http://www.anthonyzolezzi.com/blog.htm
Often it takes a galvanizing issue to get people to stop bickering and rally around a common cause. Such a renewed sense of purpose was recently provided by the USDA’s approval of genetically engineered alfalfa, which has brought the entire organic industry to its feet. What made me especially happy was seeing key leaders like Walter Robb, co-CEO of Whole Foods, Michael Funk, chairman of United Natural Foods (UNFI), George Siemen, president of Organic Valley and Gary Hirshberg, founder and CEO of Stonyfield, come together to lead a conversation with perhaps 500 organic activists. To me, it offered real hope that organic’s share of the retail food market will indeed manage to get beyond the three percent it currently comprises, and gave me more confidence than I’ve felt in nine years that it will continue to expand. For rising to the challenge created by this ill-advised decision (the alarming implications of which are discussed at the web site of The Organic Center), the leaders of the industry deserve our collective gratitude.
