How much outrage can a single multinational corporation inspire? How much damage can they inflict? This amazing film, The World According to Monsanto, features a company that sets a new standard. From Iowa to Paraguay, from England to India, Monsanto is uprooting our food supply and replacing it with their patented genetically engineered creations. And along the way, farmers, communities, and nature become collateral damage.
Monsanto is basically seeking to recreate the world in its own image, for its own benefit. They intend to replace (and patent) the entire food supply. And since their genetic pollution self-propagates in the environment, it will outlast the effects of global warming and nuclear waste. Such widespread permanent influence may not be safe with any individual or company. With Monsanto’s record, the results can only be catastrophic.
Sponsored by the BFUU Social Justice Ctee as part of our Conscientious Projector Series for the 99%
