Gigantic Tomato Tour

You say ‘tomato’ I say ‘corporate freak-show debasing nature and and commodifying the food supply’.

”From June 20th until the end of July 2007, a Monster Tomato will be touring through Macedonia, Romania and Bulgaria to raise awareness on genetically modified food and crops. Passing through 18 cities in all the main regions of the three countries, the Monster Tomato Tour will be the opportunity for citizens, media and politicians to find out more about GMOs. There will be opportunities for local governments and mayors to make GMO-free commitments and join the growing number of GMO-free zones throughout Europe.” More here.

Interesting that here again – as in the US over climate change, the lead is coming from and bypassing nation states and instead emerging through municipal or regional responses. See Hilary Wainwright fpor more on horizontalism ‘Lessons of Porto Alegre’ here, and check out the GM-Free Europe site here.
