thank goodness I have found this site – I was just so scared that my little group of ‘High Country Writers’ were the only people concerned re: gm crops being allowed to be grown.
I feel this is even more important than climate change – because with gm crops killing bees there may be no world – Earth in 4 to 5 years time – there will be not plants to eat!!
This is just soooo very serious – and am so glad that you all are here too – don’t feel so isolated in our small mountain area now
