David vs. Monsanto: A Documentary on GMO - Percy Schmeiser (Documentary video)

If you are unaware of the true nature (sic) of Monsanto and how this powerful corporation destroys lives, you really need to watch this film and listen to what Percy Schmeiser has to say. This is one of the most important and eye-opening documentaries out there and is certainly worth an hour of anyone's time.

Imagine that a storm blows across your garden – and that now, without your knowledge and without your consent, foreign and genetically-manipulated seeds are in your vegetable patch which you have nourished and maintained for many years. A few days later, representatives of a multi-national corporate group pay you a visit at home, demand that you surrender your vegetables and file a criminal complaint against you requesting a fine a $20,000 USD against you – for the illegal use of patented and genetically-manipulated seeds.

What’s more: The court finds for the corporate group!
Yet, you fight back….

This short story is no utopia – rather, around the world, the bitter truth. It is also the true experience of the family of Percy and Louise Schmeiser in Canada, also winners of the Alternative Nobel Prize, who meanwhile have been fighting the chemicals and seed manufacturer Monsanto since 1996. Nowadays, nearly three-fourths of genetically-manipulated plants harvested worldwide originate from Monsanto’s labs. 

Monsanto is a U.S. based corporate group which calls the dismal inventions such as DDT, PCB and Agent Orange its own. In its efforts to gain absolute hegemony over plants – from the field all the way to teh consumer’s plate – Monsanto knows no qualms. The farmers Tony Rush, David Runyon and Marc Loiselle also learned the hard way what it means to be confronted with Monsanto’s methods of doing business, as did thousands of other farmers worldwide.

They and the Schmeisers are not just fighting against Monsanto – and with that, for the continuation of their livelihood as farmers – but also for the right to freedom of speech and the right to their property.

Yet above all, they are campaigning for the future of their children and grandchildren – so that they too, will have a chance to grow up in a world without genetically-manipulated food.

This film is reassuring…reassuring to all who fear that as an individual, no one would have any power to confront policy makers, large corporations or the business world. “David vs. Monsanto” proves the opposite.
