"The health issues surrounding
GM foods must be examined by independent experts before
governments bow to pressure from industry and let GM
foods into our farms, supermarkets and kitchens."
Several states are under increasing
pressure from the biotech industry to lift their bans
on the commercial growing of genetically engineered
(GE) food crops. The bans protects all Australian consumers
and farmers from risky GE contamination. Just like cane
toads, once hazardous GE crops are introduced they can
never be recalled. We need to act now to keep Australia
GE-free.

food is not safe
International bestselling author Jeffrey
Smith’s new book Genetic Roulette contains all
the evidence that proves Genetically Engineered Foods
should be totally banned in Australia.
“The new evidence presented in
my book Genetic Roulette
is sufficient to call for a ban of GMOs in the food
supply. I worked with over 30 scientists for the past
2 years to document the known health risks of GMOs.
This book presents 65 health risks, which constitute
a checklist for GM food safety. The biotech industry
must counter each risk with rigorous scientific evidence.
If not, there is no basis for keeping GM foods in our
diet.”

Roulette
“This book
validates the concerns of biotech critics who warned
that our knowledge is too primitive to avoid unexpected
and deleterious consequences.”
