Global Wind GE Cargo Action in Paranagua
Night footage of the Greenpeace action against the Global Wind, a carrier with a cargo of 30,000 tons of GE soya from Argentina. Activist chained himself to the anchor chain of the 'Global Wind'. The Greenpeace ship 'Arctic Sunrise' and the Biosafety Inspection is part of the tour "Brazil melhor sem transgênicos" (Brazil is better without GE food crops). All over the world, GE industry is attempting to contaminate the non-GE supply. Greenpeace succeeded to stop the 'Global Wind' from loading conventional soya from the GM free state of Paranga in their GE cargo from Argentina for one day. Commercial growing of GE soya was illegal in Brazil until last year, when the Lula Government caved in to demand from Monsanto and farmers in Rio Grande do Sul who had been using Monsanto's GE soya seeds smuggled across from Argentina. The first legal harvest of GE soya is now ready and is about to enter Brazil's food chain and be exported overseas. The MV Arctic Sunrise (MVAS) GE soya tour aims to defend consumers' and farmers' rights to choose non-GE, and to expose the risk of GE soya.
