March Against Monsanto part 3 Downtown Los Angeles

May 15, 2015

Millions marched in the 1st March Against Monsanto on May 25, 2013 in 50 countries and 400 cities worldwide. This was a massive turnout with no mainstream media coverage. Green With Tiffany was there (her first march) in downtown Los Angeles, California.

The next march is on May 23, 2015. Activists around the world will, once again, unite to March Against Monsanto.

Why March:
Research studies have shown that Monsanto’s genetically-modified foods can lead to serious health conditions such as the development of cancer tumors, infertility and birth defects. In the United States, the FDA, the agency tasked with ensuring food safety for the population, is steered by ex-Monsanto executives, and we feel that’s a questionable conflict of interests and explains the lack of government-lead research on the long-term effects of GMO products. Recently, the U.S. Congress and president collectively passed the nicknamed “Monsanto Protection Act” that, among other things, bans courts from halting the sale of Monsanto’s genetically-modified seeds.

For too long, Monsanto has been the benefactor of corporate subsidies and political favoritism. Organic and small farmers suffer losses while Monsanto continues to forge its monopoly over the world’s food supply, including exclusive patenting rights over seeds and genetic makeup. Monsanto’s GMO seeds are harmful to the environment; for example, scientists have indicated they have caused colony collapse among the world’s bee population.
