*[Enwl-eng] Bayer’s next big battle

[ecology]

The EU is about to hand Bayer what it’s always wanted: the power to reshape 
our food system in secret. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ 
‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

            The EU is on the verge of handing Bayer and other GMO 
(genetically modified organisms) giants their biggest win in decades: 
erasing the very rules that require GMOs to be labelled and tracked. If they 
succeed, Bayer and other corporate giants get what they’ve always wanted: 
the power to reshape our food system in secret, while stripping us of our 
right to choose.

            Genetically modified foods could quietly flood our supermarket 
shelves, fields, and plates – with no labels and no way for us to choose 
what we eat or feed our families. This is corporate capture, plain and 
simple. And it’s happening behind closed doors in Brussels.

            But here’s the good news: over 53,000 people have already signed 
our petition to defend GMO labelling. Now, if enough of us chip in, we could 
supercharge this campaign with polling, ads, and more to break through the 
political backrooms and force decision-makers to listen to us – not Bayer.

            Our team is rapidly pulling together plans to fight on Bayer’s 
turf, with bold, visible, people-powered pressure that politicians can’t 
ignore.

            Can you chip in to power the resistance against corporate giants 
like Bayer?

            Right now, when we go to the supermarket, we can quickly look at 
labels to make informed choices about what you feed ourselves and our 
families. Now imagine that overnight, the labels indicating which products 
contain GMOs disappear.

            Suddenly, GMO products – engineered and sold by giants like 
Bayer – could flood our shelves, and we’ll have no way of knowing what’s in 
our food.

            That nightmare could soon be reality – and a huge step backward 
for food safety and transparency. And once these protections are gone, they’ll 
be nearly impossible to win back. But together, we can still stop this.

            Insiders say that the EU Parliament wants to protect our right 
to know what’s in our food. But our governments are buckling to Bayer’s 
pressure, which is why we’re gearing up to launch tactics like:

              a.. Escalate this fight online by taking out ads targeting key 
MEPs, EU Commissioners, and party leaders on social media – mobilizing 
citizens to flood their feeds with comments, tags, and messages until they 
can’t look away;


              b.. Commission headline-making evidence that the public wants 
transparency, including an EU-wide poll proving overwhelming support for GMO 
labelling;


              c.. Unleash a series of bold visuals, poster actions, and 
street projections in Brussels, Strasbourg, and Copenhagen – right outside 
EU offices and government ministries – to keep up the pressure in the 
streets as well as online.
            This is a fight for our basic right to know what we eat, grow, 
and feed our children. Bayer and its allies want to make that choice for us. 
But if thousands of us come together now, we can make sure our voices are 
louder than their lobbyists.

            Can you chip in today to power the resistance against corporate 
giants like Bayer?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            Your donation will help power Ekō and our campaigns worldwide 
fighting for people and the planet.

            We’ve beaten GMO giants before – from stopping toxic pesticides 
to winning protections from their harmful products. Every time, people power 
helped turn the tide. Together, let’s do it again.


            Thanks for all that you do,
            Allison and the Ekō team
