Thanks June for the Info.

We need to keep advocating to stop these measures and one way to do it is by stop consuming products that already have synthetics, or Genetically Manufactured, etc.
Educating others, telling others, will help.
If we stop consuming the harmful stuff as much as possible, they will loose a lot of the power they have on us, and therefore will have less of an impact. Remember that if more people find out about these bad practices, the more people will go for other more natural alternatives, and the majority usually wins, they can't take us all.
