Adam Eidinger After Leaving 2012 Monsanto Shareholder Meeting

On January 24, 2012, after leaving Monsanto's annual shareholder meeting, Harrington Investments' representative and Right2Know March Coordinator, Adam Eidinger, speaks to concerned citizens assembled outside of Monsanto's global headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri. The group was demonstrating for genetically engineered foods to be labeled so consumers can make informed decisions about the food they are purchasing.

Correction: At around 8:45, there was an inaccurate statement. Currently under the USDA National Organic Program regulations, a farmer will NOT lose their certification due to non-intentional GMO contamination, such as pollen drift. However, in Europe, which has stricter standards, unintentional GMO contamination will result in the loss of a farmers Organic certification.

Adam you are our crusader. Keep up the fight! Monsanto poses the biggest environment threat to the planet and humanity.

Im really happy people are watching this video. Its important to get word out there is an artificial market acceptance of GMO's because most people don't know when they are eating them. It doesn't matter if you think they are safe or not. If you are going to splice in new genes and patented it, you ought to clearly identify it in the marketplace if you want to claim people accept GMO's as ok. Please share this video and thinking about how we can make our government listen.

This company as well as Cargill/Mosaic have been and continue to poison our crops, soils, air, waterways and underground aquafiers. How many cases of cancer are a direct result of these poisonous chemicals? Wake up America.

@MichaelTBishop Without a doubt. But seeing as how the United Nations are controlled by the same corporate and banking interests, no one will do anything.

GREAT JOB GUYS! WE NEED GMO's ELIMINATED COMPLETELY, BUT HAVING THEM LABELED IS A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THANK YOU!

I have said it hundreds of times and will say it again. Monsanto is a U.S. backed bioterrorist organization worthy of international intervention.
