Take urgent action to stop the FDA from approving genetically engineered salmon from becoming a part of America's food supply. (There is only one FDA approval left before a final 60 day countdown to release it into stores).
Human Consumption - This transgenic organism contains a spliced-in growth hormone gene that makes it grow up to five times faster, reaching the market in 18 months instead of three years.
Environmental safety - Purdue University computer model tracked the effects of releasing 60 of these GE salmon into a population of 60,000 and there was complete extinction of the normal fish in just 40 fish generations. Canadian scientists tested their own GE fish with other fish and without sufficient food supply they became cannibals attacking and eating other fish.
