GMO's

I just came across this video  on GMO's (Genetically Modified Organisms) from the Organic Consumers Association, of which I am a member.  The video is dark (which is not my style) and just a bit dated (only by months).  It provides excellent information. 

I find it amazing that while Consumers would like to know GMO presence in the foods they eat, there has been little organized public outcry to get foods labelled.  In a twist of an old saying:  "What you don't know, can hurt you."  So why take the chance? 

We 3 C's are very careful not to buy GMO's in the Foods that we eat and to buy GMO free Seeds for Seeds that we plant.  Increasingly Seeds of certain Plant species are contaminated with GMO strains.  We 3 C's believe that we should not be "messin' with Seeds".  Seeds are the stuff of Life.  There is no way that we can completely know the consequences of such actions.

If you are on Facebook, the Organic Consumers Association provides some excellent news which is not commonly reported in mainstream corporate dominated press.  You may want to check it out.  In the meantime, the link for the video is below:
