Join Lancaster BFBL and the Wohlsen Center for a Sustainable Environment (F&M College) this season for a series of thought-provoking movies and discussion looking at the ways we grow, process, and buy our food.

THE WORLD ACCORDING TO MONSANTO

Thursday, April 1

7pm

Stahr Auditorium/Stager Hall at Franklin & Marshall College

Monsanto supplies 90% of the genetically-modified seeds used by the US market, and owns the exclusive patents that define them as “intellectual property”. Over the last decade, Monsanto aggressively bought up over 50 seed companies around the globe–now 90% of all GE seeds planted in the world are patented by Monsanto and hence controlled by this corporation.

This chilling French documentary directed by independent filmmaker Marie-Monique Robin has been widely acclaimed as “one of the most powerful, must see films for anyone interested in the behind the scenes world of the food industry, and how just one world dominating corporation holds the keys and patents to much of the world’s food supply.”

Free and open to the public (though donations are appreciated!)
