Wow. Watched this tonight, herpes courtesy of J and H (Peace Corps volunteers). It’s a measured presentation of facts – of how GMO foods are slowly being insinuated in the North American diet and marketplace. The film also investigates the health implications, government polices and globalization factors directly related to GMO foods and agri-business.

This film also reminds me why I’m spending a year learning at ECHO. I can’t be truly useful and empathetic to an impoverished community in an agrarian culture, if I don’t experience the simplistic beauty of growing and eating my own food using the sweat of my own brow.
