NZ: THE GENE TECH TEST CASE?

Is New Zealand being set up as the global guinea pig for gene technology? This week on RCR 360, we're diving deep into the Gene Technology Bill, the most significant shake-up to NZ’s biotech laws in decades. With mainstream media parroting the same pro-GE messaging worldwide, RCR is the only outlet in New Zealand bringing you the full story.

Joining Alistair Harding and Maree Buscke are Jon Carapiet from GE Free NZ and Claire Robinson from the UK’s GMWatch, two experts exposing the truth behind the push to remove vital safeguards.

Key topics:

• The global push to deregulate genetic engineering – Why now?
• Busting myths about GE crops – No, they won’t supercharge yields like a sci-fi movie.
• The risks and harms – Why scientists say we must take a precautionary approach.
• NZ vs. the USA – Why are our restrictions weaker than America's? Are we being set up as the global test case?
