Hundreds of thousands hounding pro-GMO companies on their Facebook pages

November 27, 2012 - SUSTAINABLE BUSINES:

30 states are pursuing measures to require GMO labels. "Over the past decade, every link in the organic food chain, from purchasing to processing to distribution to retail, has been dominated by a small number of huge corporations."

Hundreds of thousands of people are hounding these companies on their Facebook pages, calling their customer service phone numbers, and boycotting their products. There's even a chance that it GMO Labeling could be passed into law without requiring a referendum.

The defeat of California Prop 37, which would have required labels on food products that contain GMOs, hasn't discouraged labeling advocates. If anything, it has emboldened them and added momentum to the movement, which is becoming a national campaign - organizers in 30 states are now working on initiatives to require GMO labels.
