GE Free Northland

( In food and environment )

- for our sustainable future -
 

GE Free Aotearoa
   

PUBLIC APPEAL FOR FUNDS

GE Free Northland has driven the campaign in Northland to get our local authorities to act
to protect ratepayers and the environment from GMO land use and to keep our food GE free.
GE Free Northland's campaign has forced central government to admit that
YOU will pay to clean up GMO disasters, not the polluters.
District and Regional councils from Auckland to the north are now with us.
We ask for your support so that we can continue to do the work we do.
We have incurred significant legal costs to date, and we are seeking donations.
Thank you for your support.
