In reply to the discussion: Mexico Bans GMO Corn Effective Immediately [View all]Cha

You can imagine what we were going through to instigate this bill. it's one reason I got away from the West side of the Island. Unfettered spraying and planting their freaking frankenfood crops. Very heartbreaking for Kaua'i.
The picture they chose to post is actually on Kaua'i's North Shore which is far away from GMO's harm.
And, what a history.. the missionaries who came to Hawai'i so many many years ago bought up all the land and then rented it out to monsanto types in the 21st century.
To the Environment and those who work so hard to protect her! I am in awe of Mexico's ruling on GMO.. and admire them so much for that.
It's the Aina, she!
