Petition for a Moratorium on Genetically

by GreenBloc (greenbloc [at] hotmail.com)
Petition For Mandatory Labeling, Safety Testing and Moratorium on Genetically
Engineered Foods.



PETITION

A large and growing number of scientists and physicians


throughout the world are voicing serious concerns over the health and environmental risks

of genetically engineered foods and the irreversible genetic pollution of our natural food supply.

Therefore, we the undersigned, as citizens of the United States of America,

strongly urge the passage of legislation and policies to mandate


an immediate minimum 5-year moratorium on the release of all genetically engineered


organisms into any and all levels of the food chain—from seed to table—to ensure


the establishment of rigorous pre-market safety testing protocols and the continued


viability of an uncontaminated food source for America. Futhermore, we demand


full disclosure to the American consumer through the clear and accurate labeling


of all foods already on the market, derived from, processed with, containing or


consisting of genetically engineered organisms.
We are 100% volunteer and depend on your participation to sustain our efforts!
