WTO Geneva - Agricultural Criminals Tour (Dec 1, 2009).avi

The second of three Corporate Geneva Tours co-organized by the Corporate Europe Observatory and Our World Is Not For Sale, about 100 people marched from the offices of Bunge to those of Cargill and then Migros. "Nearly one third of global agricultural trade takes place in Geneva," reads a pamphlet handed out along the march. "Farmers and activists from all over the world have come to Geneva to protest against the push for trade liberalization led by the WTO. Today, we will visit some of the agricultural criminals in town to draw attention to their responsibility for hunger, poverty and the destruction of family farming in the world."
