Genetic Engineering

On November 29th the first shipment containing genetically manipulated soya beans made it’s way into Liverpool Docks, only to be stopped by Greenpeace activists. They delayed the ship from docking for over twenty-four hours by using inflatables, as well as people occupying the unloading cranes and locking onto loading ladders.

There is to be an International Day of Action against Genetic Engineering on December 14th. Earth First! as well as other groups will be taking action. Campaign packs are also available. Contact Manchester EF! on: 0161 224 4846.
