The group GE Free Maine has issued a call for a ban on the release of genetically engineered trees into the environment. Today we'll be talking to 2 longtime activists who have been working on the issue internationally - and are coming to Maine next week as part of GE Free Maine's education Campaign.
Anne Petermann and Orin Langelle are the co-founders and co-directors of the Global Justice Ecology Project. They were among the first activists to raise alarms about dangers associated with genetic engineer and have researched and spoke extensively on the topic. They be making several stops in Maine next week, talking about GE trees and showing the new film "A Silent Forest: The Growing Threat of Genetically Engineered Trees".
