It is no longer acceptable to allow free trade to be put before the environment and human welfare. We not only need a Protocol but a tough one that protects the world's wildlife and allows Governments to stop GMOs if there is uncertainty over their safety.

They campaign in over 64 countries covering all negotiation parties at the Protocol.
Campaigners are available in Montreal for comment and briefings in English, French and Spanish.
