Default Health and GMO, World Scientists concerned - 07-07-2005, 10:46 PM

Ayurvedists should be more concerned with epidemical proportion of
diseases/patients, and root causes.

Open Letter from World Scientists to All Governments Concerning Genetically
Modified Organisms (GMOs) The scientists are extremely concerned about the
hazards of GMOs to biodiversity, food safety, human and animal health, and
demand a moratorium on environmental releases in accordance with the
precautionary principle.

They are opposed to GM crops that will intensify corporate monopoly,
exacerbate inequality and prevent the essential shift to sustainable agriculture
that can provide food security and health around the world.

They call for a ban on patents of life-forms and living processes which
threaten food security, sanction biopiracy of indigenous knowledge and genetic
resources and violate basic human rights and dignity.

They want more support on research and development of non-corporate,
sustainable agriculture that can benefit family farmers all over the world.

Previous versions of this letter were submitted to many governments and
international forums including:

World Trade Organization Conference in Seattle (November 30 – Dec. 2, 1999)
UN Biosafety Protocol Meeting in Montreal (24 – 28, Jan. 2000)
UN Commission on Sustainable Development Conference on Sustainable
Agriculture in New York (April 24-May 5, 2000)
UN Convention on Biological Diversity Conference in Nairobi (May 16-24, 2000)
United States Congress (29 June, 2000)
