Genetic Engineering Ads in the NYT

Check out the Turning Point Project's second ad series, which is devoted 
to the subject of genetic engineering, which begins today (Monday, Oct. 
11) in the New York Times. 

Food First/The Institute for Food and Development Policy is a member of 
the Turning Point Project, a coalition of more than 60 non-profit 
organizations that favor democratic,  localized, ecologically sound 
alternatives to current practices and policies.

This week's ad:
Who plays God in the 21st century?
The genetic structures of living beings are the last of Nature's 
creations to be invaded and altered for commerce. Now they're being 
seized for corporate ownership. Nothing will ever be the same, and we 
approach the gravest moral, social, and ecological crises in history.

You can find a copy of the ad in the front section of today's New York
Times, or download it from the Turning Point project's website at 
www.turnpoint.org.

Remember to keep watching the New York Times every Monday or check 
Turning Point Project's website for additional advertisements on genetic 
engineering.
