Any farmers here who would like to leave a message for Ronnie Cummins, head of OCA?
Go to the Risk-Monger's site and get your voice heard at the Voice of Farmers event ( risk-monger.com/voice-of-farmers-event/).
Ronnie Cummins, head of the Organic Consumers Association, may not realise how hated he is by conventional farmers ... BUT HE'S GOING TO FIND OUT!!! In my last blog that announced our alternative Voice of Farmers event, I added a text box saying that if you had a message for Mr Cummins, I will print it up and personally give it to him at his fake Monsanto Tribunal in The Hague. Those two little lines were well-spotted by the blog's readers. Keep the comments coming, but a few points to add. I know it is hard, but try to keep the language civil (I'll also publish some since he might not read all of them). The form allows anonymous posts so if you want Ronnie to look you up, you'll have to add your name. You can write in English, French, Dutch and German. If you are writing as an African farmer, please specify. We are considering an African outrage section since the damage Ronnie is doing to the developing world is immeasurable. A reminder that we are organising a breakfast conference for farmers to explain why and how they use agri-tech. It will take place on October 14 in The Hague just before and just next to the launch of the Monsanto Tribunal. You can find the Cummins Comment box, more information on the event and help donate to the costs at: risk-monger.com/2016/09/23/the-voice-of-farmers-at-the-monsanto-tribunal/
Sir Richard Roberts gets that this isn't about explaining science to the masses to convince them, but about morals and justice. That's what we at MAMyths are all about, and we're rooting for the #Nobels4GMOs to continue making an impact!

For Roberts, this campaign isn’t about agribusiness or even science. It’s about justice. He plans to take the initiative forward despite attacks from anti-GMO opponents.
#MAMyths bearing witness to anti-GMO injustice!
"As it turns out, only a few pro-GMO supporters showed up to hear Hari talk. Among them was Joni Kamiya, the daughter of longtime Windward Oahu farmers known for their Kamiya Gold papayas." – Civil Beat

"The international protest "March Against Monsanto" (MAM) was never based on truth. The movement perpetuated myths about GMOs to demonize a company that has a really bad PR department. But now that Bayer is buying out Monsanto, what is MAM to do? These angry activists must channel their rage somewhere. So, March Against Monsanto has decided to become hard-core anti-vaccine."
