European farming at risk
The European Commission is currently considering reviving talks on 25 new GM-crops for cultivation in Europe – including crops resistant to the pesticide RoundUp and insecticide-producing varieties of GM maize, soybean and sugarbeet. The groups claim that such a move would drastically change farming in Europe, leading to a big increase in pesticide use, contamination of conventional and organic crops and further industrialisation of the countryside.
Stop the Crop
Thanks for all you support, for tweeting and telling the European Commission to reject the GM maize. BUT
the European Commission decided today to ask national ministers to authorise the GM maize 1507!
We keep on mobilising before the decision of the environmental ministers in mid December and will update you via this page and our facebook page.

About the Stop the Crop campaign
This website and film present some of the dangers of GM-crops, and call for people across Europe and beyond to take action to stop them. We need a future of food and farming that benefits people and planet, and not the pockets of big business. We need to stop GM-crops from spreading across Europe. You can sign up for updates and alerts opposite.
