DESCRIPTION:"The Future of Food" offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing 
 truth behind the unlabeled GMO products that have quietly filled grocery 
 store shelves over the past decade.  From the test tube, to the farm field, 
 to the supermarket, the film follows the personal stories of the farmers in 
 the U.S., Canada who have been sued by large multi-national corporations 
 for continuing the time-honored tradition of saving seeds; of the 
 scientists in the U.S. and Europe who have been censored for raising 
 serious public and environmental health concerns; and finally, of the 
 consumers, who are beginning to question why this has escaped the attention 
 of both the media and the Federal agencies in charge of keeping our food 
 safe.  "The Future of Food" unravels the complex web of market and 
 political forces that are changing the nature of what we eat.  Food has 
 gone from being a basic need to being part of a larger billion-dollar 
 battle to control the world's food production.  The film will be followed 
 by an open discussion led by the film’s producer, writer, and director, 
 Deborah Garcia.  $5 - $10 suggested donation; sponsored by World Centric, 
 Peninsula Peace and Justice Center, and Peace Umbrella of the Unitarian 
 Universalist Church of Palo Alto.\n
