NanoCommerce 2004 Conference
Oct. 6, 2004, Chicago
An amusing Chicago based protest group T.H.O.N.G (Topless Humans Organized for Natural Genetics) recently staged what must have been a rather chilly anti-nano protest at the NanoCommerce 2004 Conference Oct. 6, 2004
What is THONG?
THONG supports and fights for:
Community gardens
Foraging
Wild ecosystems
Organic and Sustainable Agriculture
Indigenous peoples land and human rights
Fair trade organic coffee and chocolate and other mildly/at times strongly addictive aphrodisiacs
Degradable vegetable packaging
Hemp production and multiple uses
Beauty, (which is) lushness, diversity, the unexpected, the inspired
Humanenvironmentnature who refuses to be named, classed, categorized, jailed, silenced, repressed, stifled, drained, polluted, owned, and disappeared
Things that piss us off:
Genetic Engineering
The patenting of all life forms
Anything that drives a farmer to commit suicide
Bovine Growth Hormones, and other methods of human and animal substance abuse perpetrated BY corporations ON humans and animals and the environment
Gross tasteless food
Gross tasteless packaging containing gross tasteless food
Mass commodified stultifying diseases of the body and mind caused by gross tasteless corporate swill fast food crap
For more information please visit Genewise
