[CRNMC] Fwd: boycott Coke's GMO loving brands - spread the word

[Beth Brenneman]

*Please consider joining in the boycott of Coke and their products.  Many
of us fought very hard to get gmo labeling on the ballot in Cali and now
they are trying to defeat it in Washington.  I will not buy Odwalla anymore
since it's theirs.  Thanks, Beth*

Dear Friend,

What do Monsanto and Coke have in common? They’ve both spent millions of
dollars to keep you in the dark about the foods you buy.

In the past 2 years, executives at Coca-Cola have stood with Monsanto
against the American public by donating more than $3.2 million to defeat
GMO labeling ballot initiatives Prop 37 in California and I-522 in
Washington State.

*Last year alone, Coke secretly funneled more than $1.5 million dollars
through the a secret slush fund in order to kill the I-522 initiative in
Washington that would have required GMO labeling.*

*It’s time for consumers to put their money where their mouth is and join
the Coke Boycott.*

*While you may not drink Coke or any of their popular sugary soda drinks,
the company owns many brands that you might buy, including Honest Tea,
Honest Kids, Zico Coconut Water, Odwalla, Powerade, Peace Tea, Vitamin
Water and Simply Orange.*

*Tell Coke to dump Monsanto and stop spending millions of dollars to kill
GMO labeling campaigns in America! Tell Coke it's time to Kiss Monsanto
Goodbye!*

Farmers need your voice today. Please spread the word.
