Many of the Zurich citizens have shown their solidarity today for the struggle against the planned outdoor release experiment with genetically modified wheat. This experiment will be conducted by the Technical University of Switzerland, the "Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule" (ETH) in Lindau.
Although the experiment takes place in Lindau, this will also affect the Zurich population. Together with "AG Lindau against GM wheat", Greenpeace launched a 15-day "Genetically Engineered Wheat Tour" through Switzerland today. With the tour, Greenpeace wants to give the resistance a 'face' and bring all the personal opinions on the release of GMO's together.
