Very OT - Peepli live movie (about farmers plight in India)

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

I guess many of you have heard about the problems of cotton farmers and

farmers in India. 

There is a new movie about farmer suicides in India (we read about it in

Dr Mercola's newsletter) and it looks like it has been done very well.

The trailer is on-line here

Is it any co-incidence that this week they are talking about the failing cotton crops and cotton prices set to double.. or similarly the wheat shortages.. and the bee populations plummeting.... is GM a common element in this all.

 

I hope that you have been able to sign up to the AVAAZ appeal to ban commercial GM crop production in Europe... It is set to begin soon ..Unless enough of us say NO.
