Here’s a good story from foodpolitics.com – [link] Please VOTE YES on 37 this November.

What I can’t figure out is how anyone can make out Prop 37 as ‘anti-science’?   IF the scientific data presented by Monsanto, Dow, and DuPont was ‘actual and rigorous’ science then most of us having issues with GM foods either wouldn’t ( because the foods are actually safe ) or would ( because the foods aren’t safe ).  The fact is simply that the ‘science’ produced by these companies does not meet basic standards for controls; is not independently funded.  No controls and self funded?  That’s not science. Therefore, being against PROP 37 isn’t anti-science whatsoever.   What we want is… Read More

This week is National Bulk Foods Week.  Please visit your local grocer and see what they are doing to celebrate.  If your grocer doesn’t have a bulk section, have them visit our site or the Bulk is Green Council to find out how to include bulk food sets for their customers.  See the ‘bulk sets’ slide show here – [link]

The power of advertising has shown itself.  Since Monsanto, DuPont, and Dow, can’t provide factual evidence of the safety of their GM efforts they continue to pound the airwaves with inaccuracies and misrepresentations.  Even some newspapers, whose editorials had come out against Prop 37 called out the ‘No’ campaign for their lies.  Shouldn’t that be enough to realize that if these companies are willing to spend money to lie to you that you can’t trust them??  How could you vote any other way but YES on 37??  Let’s not let this continue as we have a choice this November.  YES… Read More

While the battle for GMO labeling heats up, we found this little story in the Santa Monica Community College newspaper that offers some basic insight into the measure.  How do we know that we might want to consider a different approach than GMO?  The article says it best – “In the field, GM has to be treated as a pesticide, because pesticide is built into it, so you have to wash your hands after planting the seed,” said King. “The plant itself is the pesticide so you wouldn’t want it on yourself, but at some point it’s harvested and, suddenly,… Read More

This article in the NY Times is worth reading – [link] Please VOTE YES on PROP 37

The latest salvo by the ‘no’ folks is a press release entitled ‘In case you missed it’ which states that 34 newspaper editorial staffs have come out against Prop 37.  It suggests that we, the People, are missing something.  REALLY??  I don’t think so.  First off, 15 of those newspapers listed in the press release are owned by two media corporations, Media News Group and McClatchey Corp.  Those aren’t 15 independent editorial boards, those are only two editorial boards with big advertising and corporate ties to many of big business supporters of the ‘no’ campaign.  Here’s the link to the… Read More
