India stands up against GE food crop!


India has taken a huge step in creating more sustainable agricultural practices, which is clearly shown in their fight against genetically engineered (GE) crops! After India's Genetic Engineering Approval Committee gave GE crops the thumbs up, it has been met by national voices disapproving these crops. Citizens, farmers and various groups have participated in a day of fasting, while others have dressed up as eggplants at meetings to discuss these crops. The full article can be found here, on Greenpeace's website and thanks to Sarah sending it in!
