No to transgenic maize! No to genetically modified corn!

You are invited by Red en Defensa del Maíz of Mexico to join them in
sending a strong message to:
--the Mexican government
--the Convention on Biological Diversity / Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety and
--the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations / FAO.

The indigenous and peasant organizations and communities,
environmental organizations, popular education organizations, base
organizations, ecclesiastical communities, groups of producers,
members of urban movements, scholars, scientists, and political
analysts of the Network In Defense of Maize vigorously repudiate the
planting of transgenic maize in Mexico. It is a historic crime against
the peoples of maize, against biodiversity and food sovereignty,
against ten thousand years of indigenous and peasant agriculture that
bequeathed this seed for the well being of all the peoples of the
world.

It is urgent to respond to a Mexican presidential decree of March 6,
2009 which now permits the planting of transgenic maize.

To send your letter of support go to:

Thank you for participating.  Please ask your friends and family to
join in sending this urgent message to your senator.
