I am concerned that this presentation is intended to demonize GMO with a broad brush, rather than presenting a reasoned examination of this process with its risks and benfits. Please follow this link to the Union of Concerned Scientists (generally liberal in their politics but conscientiously fact-driven in their approach to science) discourse on where GMO fits in to our agriculture system:
 http://www.ucsusa.org/our-work/food-agriculture/our-failing-food-system/genetic-engineering-agriculture

I think we UUs, with our commitment to "a free and reasoned search for truth and meaning", should be cautious about inflammatory and alarmist propaganda like this.

Dear Friends,


I'm not sure I will be able to attend but will try.  Many people confuse genetically modified organisms (GMO) with traditional Mendelian genetic manipulation which has produced many marvelous hybrid plants.   Perhaps we can get a car pool going if others are interested.

Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone. Embrace adventure. Have fun welcoming uncertainty.
Master chaos through flexibility and youthful curiosity. Once a year, go somewhere you have never been.

Reminding Everyone!
Our presentation is  5:45 to 8:00 Wednesday August 24th at Greenfield Library 5310 West Layton Ave.  And it is scary.........

Shows how Monsanto and other GMO's ---Genetically Modified food---will severely injure you, your family, animals, and plants!---all life forms!  It is terrifying to see the conditions caused by them.  This is one everyone should see to protect everything living!

Please share this with people you know and your groups.  Attached is a flyer you can run off for those you know who are interested...and we all should be!   Please share this

Please share!!!

Pamela Carlson
