DESCRIPTION:Dear friends, allies and supporters, \n\nBiosafety Alliance has joined 
 Navdanya International and numerous other groups internationally in 
 promoting the Seed Freedom Campaign. With Navdanya International and other 
 global networks we are putting on a seed satyagraha week of events in 
 October, 2012 celebrating seed and promoting seed sovereignty in San 
 Francisco, CA and in Portland, OR.\nJoin Biosafety Alliance for an amazing 
 night with philosopher, physicist, environment activist and author of over 
 20 books.\n\nDr. Vandana Shiva\nWednesday October 31st at 7:00 
 PM\n\nWomen’s Building (Auditorium)\n3543 18th Street #8  San Francisco, 
 CA 94110\n\nFor RSVP etereas@gmail.com\nContact: 415 3681891\n\nJOIN THE 
 Seed Freedom Campaign:\n“Seed affects all life on earth and every human 
 being”\nCome and learn about the links between the global Seeds Freedom 
 Campaign and Californian Prop. 37.\n\nOpen-pollinated organic seeds create 
 the foundation for a mutually beneficial relationship with pollinators like 
 butterflies and bees, soil organisms, birds and insects.\nChemically bred 
 seed and monocultures destroy biodiversity both above and below the 
 soil.\nFarmers have bred open source seeds for health, nutrition, taste and 
 diversity. Seeds of freedom for farmers are also seeds of freedom for 
 everyone that eats food that farmers grow. Healthy seeds produce healthy 
 food, whereas seeds bred to respond to chemicals or genetically modified 
 seed contributes to disease and ill-health. Seed Freedom is Food 
 freedom.\nEach of us needs to become a seed defender to protect the freedom 
 of seed and biodiversity and our own freedoms to have healthy, safe and 
 diverse food. We need to act because industrial farming, genetic 
 engineering and seed patents are undermining our freedoms.\nYou can be a 
 seed defender by joining actions through the Seed Freedom 
 Movement.”\nPlease get in touch if you would like to:\n•	Endorse & 
 promote Prop 37.\n•	Organize a workshop, presentation, film screening, 
 panel, or discussion in October.\n•	Organize a GMO free, community 
 potluck.\n•	Volunteer during our next events.\n•	Assist in campaign 
 strategy, help coordinate and organize community events.\n•	Build 
 coalitions with community-based organizations and low-income 
 communities.\n•	\nYes on Prop. 37!\nhttp://biosafetyalliance.org/\n\n
