Review

Decisions

Endorse & Participate in the March against Monsanto?

The March Against Monsanto is a yearly event against corporate control of food. We supported past marches if only over our opposition to bio tech patents & the patenting of life.

This year's event is the 23rd. There is a Facebook event, and website.

Suggest we endorse and turn people out for it.
