I understand the 1st stage of a major lawsuit against Monsanto begins on January 31st. Woohoo!
If you want to lend your signature in support of Farmers and organic seed people etc who are fighting Monsanto in court, there is a place you can sign to say you support them. It's sponsored by FoodDemocracyNow an advocacy group. I get their emails all the time and feel like they are OK folks.
Here's a link where you can sign your name in support. Like all our Internet advocacy friends, they will probably want to contact you for money support too. It's OK if you don't want to. I'm not trying to get people to send money.
This is just to give a voice of support in this very special and valiant fight.
You can click here to see if you want to sign on.

January 24: Join the OCA Protest at Monsanto’s Annual Shareholders Meeting in St. Louis, Missouri
UPDATE: Activists in Maui, in solidarity with our St. Louis action, will be peacefully protesting outside Monsanto’s Hawaii HQ location on 3555 Mokulele Hwy on the same day. For more information or to RSVP, visit the Facebook event here. Organize your own local event!
What if Monsanto had to pay for its corporate crimes?
It is inevitable that one day Monsanto will be held responsible for the enormous human health and environmental damages arising from the so-called “responsible” use of its toxic pesticides, chemicals, and mutant genetically engineered seeds.
If the Biotech Bully of St. Louis were to be held liable for its 100-year legacy of corporate criminality – carcinogenic chemical food sweeteners, Agent Orange, dioxin, Bovine Growth Hormone, poisonous herbicides, seed monopolization, and genetically engineered crops, the company’s shareholders would no doubt see the value of their Monsanto stocks plummet to zero.
Following up on two protests at Monsanto’s headquarters in 2011, OCA returns to St. Louis for the 2012 Monsanto shareholders’ meeting on January 24!
Please join OCA, Pesticide Action Network, and Harrington Investments (a socially responsible investor’s group) in St. Louis to support a shareholder resolution to examine the financial risks associated with genetically engineered crops. While an OCA representative is speaking inside the shareholders meeting, another group of us will be outside, peacefully picketing.
Come to St. Louis to Make Monsanto Pay! Contact Mike Durschmid (mikedvegan AT gmail.com) to join in, or RSVP on Facebook and share with your friends.
