GE FREE NORTHLAND (in Food & Environment)
GE FREE NORTHLAND (in Food & Environment) opposes the use of genetic engineering outside the strict containment of the lab, due to the unpredictable and irreversible nature of the risks to the enviornment and the public health (as well as the risk to our quality primary production, growing organic industry and tourism). The continued trialling of GE crops and animals, when liability has yet to be established and transgenic pollution is a risk, is unacceptable. We also oppose the presence of GE ingredients in the national food supply in New Zealand- these products should be pulled from the market until long term toxicological tests have been done and there is both a nutritional reason for their presence and public demand.
