The US is gathering ministers from 180 nations to push its agenda of
biotech, industrial agriculture, corporatization, pesticides, WTO,
privatization, irradiation, GMO trees, GMO fish, biopiracy, unlimited
freedom for multinational agribusiness, taking away freedom from local
communities, taking away viability of family farmers, taking away public
right to know, taking away local democratic control, damaging soil
health, taking away from public health, taking away indigenous rights,
impeding fair trade, taking away biodiversity.

The answer? Organize, educate, resist, spread the word, protest,
write letters, direct action, contribute food & services, mobilize,
donate, sign endorsements, flier farmers markets schools businesses
& churches, contact media, host a place for an activist to stay, make
artwork banners & costumes, join organizations working on these issues,
support your local farmers, add your own ideas.

June 20-25 2003, Sacramento California
