For #EarthDay we're sharing our new Food Worker Climate Justice Declaration. The food system is one of the largest contributors to the climate crisis, and workers are already feeling its impacts. When workers are empowered to organize they can protect themselves and the planet.
“We work hard to support the economy of this state, working long hours for low wages, doing work that U.S. citizens don’t want to do. Remember: the cows don’t milk themselves. We demand freedom for our community members and won’t rest until they are free.”

The aggressive promotion of hybrid and genetically modified seeds by multinational corporations is eroding Africa’s vast agricultural diversity. The continent's nutrition and health depend on diverse local crops adapted to varied environments, but corporate seeds push uniformity, putting at risk centuries of biodiversity cultivated by African farmers. Protecting farmer-managed seeds is essential to defending Africa’s agricultural future against the homogenizing forces of corporate control.
