For Greenpeace, agriculture must be ecologically and socially
sustainable. We envision an agricultural system in which
biodiversity is sustained; in which food is grown locally by people
for people; in which access to safe, nutritious and affordable food
is ensured as a human right; and in which farmers are recognized as
the custodians of biodiversity.
With that aim, Greenpeace is taking a clear stand against
genetically engineered (GE) foods and the corporate control of our
food supply. Greenpeace believes that GE crops threaten both our
planet's biodiversity and local control of food production.
Greenpeace is asking for international and national governments to
take strong action to stop the spread of GE crops around the
world.
