No GE Salmon! Please take one minute to help.

Please, for me? You have time for this.  It takes less than one minute to tell President Obama to refuse that Genetically Engineered Salmon enter our food system. It would be the first GE animal passed for consumption. This is absolutely absurd!! Not only is there too little research done on the health effects in humans, it also invites the likely possibility that these salmon will enter into wild waters and breed with wild fish–an ecological tragedy I don’t think anyone can wrap their head around. These fish would not be required to be labeled, and thus will slip into our food system undetected…perhaps cheaper, but reeking unimagined havoc on our bodies and the ecosystems on which we depend for life. Please get your name on this letter written by Food and Water Watch, a very well-respected advocacy group that has done their homework.
