FORTNIGHT OF ACTIONS FOR SEED FREEDOM 2nd – 16th October 2012

The Global Alliance for Seed Freedom is planing a phase of action to raise global public awareness regarding Seed Freedom.

Dr. Vandana Shiva, environmental activist and seed defender, spearheading the movement, was interviewed by the International Permaculture Day, speaking of “the importance of seed sovereignty as the basis for permanent (sustainable) agriculture and about the grave and growing threat of patented seeds to life, diversity and freedom.”
