A brave group of Monsanto shareholders are making a stand -- Harrington Investments Inc. is telling Monsanto to come clean [about GMO risks], and they need other big shareholders to back them.
The crucial vote is only one week away, and they need our support to force Monsanto to face up to the risks associated with GMOs.
Monsanto has been keeping us and its shareholders in the dark for too long -- this shareholder resolution tells Monsanto to be open with the risks of GMO.If the resolution gets a high vote, it would send a very clear signal that Monsanto should disclose the risks associated with GMOs: including contamination of non-GMO crops, damage to "non-target organisms" like bees and other pollinators, and soil contamination. But Monsanto's board is refusing to back the proposal, despite claiming to be transparent and even though the resolution doesn't require them to disclose any proprietary information. Meanwhile, the company has spent more than $15 million is California and Washington alone to defeat proposals to label GMO food.

ALERT!! NEW RESEARCH from Canada:
Monsanto’s Bt-Toxins Found to Kill Human Embryo Cells
(from the report)
"BT toxins are showing up in pregnant women, and low and behold – they are KILLING HUMAN EMBRYO CELLS.
It’s called reproductive toxicology, and just like their suicide seeds, these Bt toxins are starting to kill our own unborn children. This is no exaggeration. Hopefully reading further will compel you to take action. It is time to put Monsanto to rest, bankrupt them, and let the world know their ‘secrets’ near and far.
Bt toxins are prominent in genetically altered crops such as CORN, SOY, WHEAT, and others, called Cry1Ab – and they can be lethal. Not only do these cry-toxins target the kidney cells of developing human fetuses, but when Cry1Ab and Cry1Ac are combined with RoundUp, they can delay apoptosis of human cancer cells.
What’s worse, glyphosate, the main ingredient in RoundUp, also causes necrosis – i.e. the death of human tissue, and this happens even when the substance is found in much smaller amounts than what is currently being used on our agricultural crops. The stuff is still CARCINOGENIC in the PARTS per TRILLION range."
