In this lecture at Michigan State University, environmental activist, author, and eco-feminist Vandana Shiva talks about her environmental activism. Rooted in a discussion of environmental struggles in her home country of India, Shiva expands her discussion by placing environmental activism into a larger context of globalization and capitalism. Shiva offers an interesting critique of market defined "sustainability" before moving into a lengthy discussion of corporate attempts--such as those by Monsanto and Coca-Cola--to privatize water.
So freaking interesting. i just watched this movie from netflix...its all about GMO, Monsanto, corn and how most products are "manufactured". The movie also goes into how the FDA tried to determine what 'organic' is and tried to control the organic movement...lol...WTF. I'll look up the name of the movie and post....thanks fro sharing....
