Greenpeace activists today marched to the Department of Agriculture waving post-harvest rice stalks to remind the government to keep the country's rice supply free of risky contamination from genetically-modified (GMO) varieties. The peaceful protest, at the eve of World Consumer Rights Day, is part of Greenpeace's on-going campaign to protect rice from GMO contamination which poses inherent risks to consumer health, the environment, and farmers' livelihoods. © Greenpeace / Luis Liwanag
