Hi Tap,
Just received this email from naturalnews.com less than a half hour
ago concerning Proposition 37.
A victory against GMO is within our reach! Proposition 37 is currently
polling 2-to-1 in favor of passing!
This "GMO labeling" law would not only require food companies to label
GMOs on their products, it would also disallow the use of the word
"natural" on products that contain GMOs!
Passage of this law would initiate sweeping changes across the food
industry, and it would drastically reduce farming of GMOs.
But your help is still needed because Monsanto, DuPont and other
companies are spending tens of millions of dollars to try to defeat
this bill. That's why I donated $1,000 yesterday to the YES on Prop 37
campaign, and Natural News will be making another (larger) donation in
October.
Here's how you can help make sure this law passes:

Did you know that Russia is a model of small-scale organic
agriculture? It turns out that Russia honors food freedom and
encourages citizens to own land for gardening and growing food! Wow,
how did Russia become a freer country than America when it comes to
growing your own food?

The backyard gardening model is so effective throughout Russia that total output represents more than 50 percent of the nation's entire agricultural output. Based on 2004 figures, the collective value of all the backyard produce grown in Russia is $14 billion, or 2.3 percent of Russia's gross domestic product (GDP) -- and this number only continues to increase as more and more Russians join the eco-village movement.
