Greenpeace, civil society groups call on Department of Agriculture to stop GMO invasion
Greenpeace activists dressed as GMO "monster crops" accompanied by "mad scientists" storm the Department of Agriculture. Greenpeace together with other concerned organizations are demanding the Philippine government to "stop GMO invasion" by cancelling all commercialization and field trials of genetically-modified organisms in the country.
The Department of Agriculture, responsible for regulating GMOs, has never denied approval for any GMO crop. Greenpeace contends that GMOs are dangerous to human health, biodiversity and farmers’ livelihoods.
