ETC Group
Group
ETC says it fears the impact of new technologies on “poor and vulnerable” people (especially technologies that work with genomics). Andy Parker, a Research Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) in Potsdam suggested that ETC proposed “forcing humanity to return to peasant agriculture,” in its answer to global warming.
