Hello all!
We have been engaged in further attempts to raise public awareness of the renewed threat to Poland's GMO feed and seed bans, represented by the current government's process of capitulation to corporate and EU pro GMO pressures.

European Parliament Proposals for Tighter GM Regulations Progress of Regress?
- Szczegóły
- Opublikowano: czwartek, 11, październik 2012 19:26
On 5 July 2011, the European parliament backed plans to let member states choose whether or not to ban the cultivation of GM crops on their territory. A decision which has been widely greeted as a victory for ant-GMO NGO's. However, a more careful assessment throws doubt on the validity of this reaction, and it is our view that an opportunity was missed to to call for a complete prohibition of all GM crops.
The EU parliament proposals show improvements on the EU Commission's original proposals which excluded both environmental and health concerns from its list of what would be deemed legally acceptable criteria for a member state to block the import of GM crops. Under the European Parliament's latest proposal, environmental considerations are now included, however 'health' is still not on the agenda. There also appears to be a tightening of financial liability on the perpetrator of any cross contamination with organic or non GM crops under the EU parliament proposals.

GMO Act: Polish parliament debate

Dear Friends,
Thanks to your superb support, which, in combination with Polish efforts, led to more than 40 parliamentarians raising critical questions about the planned new GMO Act during the parliamentary reading and debate on 16th December. This was enough to force the debate to be prolonged into February 2010. At that point it will have to go through both the agricultural and environment committees, both of which will have to ratify the act for it to become law.

So congratulations to Grupa Artystyczna Zawleczka www.zawleczka.com.pl for coming up with a design which will be instantly recognisable anywhere in the world.
!!!!Why not spread it around as far and wide as possible, over the internet, as a poster, flyer or however you feel inclined to use it. But please add a note: "The winner of ICPPC's 'Best Anti GMO Poster' competition launched in Poland www.gmo.icppc.pl ; The author: Grupa Artystyczna Zawleczka www.zawleczka.com.pl"
We urgently need to make others aware that by using or accepting GMO we are putting our heads - and the heads of future generations - in a noose.
