GMO Labeling Ballot Initiative event- this Saturday

Want your foods labeled if they contain GMO’s?   Join The Committee for the Right to Know at the GMO labeling kick-off meeting, Sat., Dec. 17, 10-11 am, @ Sunrise Center, 645 Tamalpais Drive, Corte Madera (across from Town Center Shopping mall & next to the B of A)  GMO Free Marin and Non-GMO project leader Mark Squire will discuss the initiative and how to get it on the ballot – (2nd of two mtgs.) Info call or email: Ann Thomas, 415-924-9559 athomas1@pacbell.net or www.labelgmos.org  When enough shoppers stop buying GMO brands, the food industry will kick out all genetically modified (GM) ingredients. This happened in Europe, and it's happening in the US with GM bovine growth hormone. We need about 5% of US shoppers- -to choose healthier non-GMO brands in order to generate a non-GMO tipping point. (If you would like to become a volunteer for this project- we need 500,000 signatures- attend or go to  www.labelgmos.org)
