An anonymous commenter responding to this article stated:
'If you are from Oregon or Switzerland, does anyone have photos of those members of the boards of directors??? Photos now become very important. Every name that crops up should have a photo. Thanks'
That's a good idea. I'm certain the folks in the following photos are very proud of the big money they earn for their efforts to re-engineer nature. Therefore they deserve recognition whenever possible. So, without further ado, here are your candidates for Humanitarian of the Year:
Syngenta Chairman Michel Demare |
Syngenta CEO Michael Mack |
Syngenta Vice Chairman Jurg Witmer |
Syngenta Board Member Vinita Bali |
Syngenta Board Member Stefan Borgas |
Syngenta Board Member Gunnar Brock |
Syngenta Board Member Eleni Gabre-Madhin |
Syngenta Board Member David Lawrence |
Syngenta Board Member Eveline Saupper |
Syngenta Board Member jacques Vincent |

Oregon Department of Agriculture's Director, Katy Soba, is owed a mugshot as well for this quote: "...this is the first time someone has deliberately taken the cowardly step of uprooting high value plants growing in our state. Regardless of how one feels about biotechnology, there is no justification for committing these crimes and it is not the kind of behavior we expect to see in Oregon agriculture." Yeah, whatever. Except I can't find a photo of the woman, as strange as that sounds. Additionally it is somewhat difficult to find pics of the people who serve as board members for Oregonians for Food and
Shelter - the last thing I want to do is misidentify anyone.
Thanks to a comment left by anon below, your hungry blogger confused Katy's name. Katy COBA, not Soba (that's a bit embarrassing... no, not for her) and, according to the same comment "Oregonians for Food and Shelter is the pet project of attorney John DiLorenzo (also known as "DiLo")"
So, following are photos of each, then onto the proud folks of Monsanto:
Now, let's take a look at those who sit on Monsanto's Board:

Not to be dissin' Ms. Coba... but her education (a BA) is not as extensive as one usually sees in State Director positions. If anyone knows her maiden name, I'd appreciate it in a comment below |
John DiLorenzo, Oregonians for Food and Shelter (and a sales tax as this republican has tried to con the people of Oregon into accepting a sales tax to go with our income and property taxes) |
Now, let's take a look at those who sit on Monsanto's Board:
