DESCRIPTION:Interested in learning more about GMOs and it's impact on local or global 
 agriculture? Join us for our film screening followed by a post-film 
 discussion.\n\nBitter Seeds explores the future of how we grow things, 
 weighing in on the worldwide debate over the changes created by industrial 
 agriculture. Companies like U.S.-based Monsanto claim that their 
 genetically modified seeds offer the most effective solution to feeding the 
 world's growing population, but on the ground many small-scale farmers are 
 losing their land. Nowhere is the situation more desperate than in India, 
 where an epidemic of farmer suicides has claimed over a quarter million 
 lives.\n\nThis film is particularly relevant at the moment given the push 
 to pass Proposition 37 - and label GMOs in our foods - this November.  It 
 is sponsored by Slow Money South Bay, Transition Silicon Valley and 
 Acterra.\n\nFree!  Young people welcome, although be sure they are ok with 
 the topic of suicides.  For any questions, please email
