The People's Moratorium Enforcement Agency (PMEA) is celebrating the destruction of the genetically engineered pine trees in Rotorua over the weekend.

"The annihilation of the Scion GE trees demonstrates that the People's Moratorium is still in force. Overwhelmingly the population of Aotearoa wants this country to be GE Free," Perry said.

"The Genetically modified trees are a menace to New Zealand's environment and reputation as a GE-Free country. The people of Aotearoa have shown that they will not to sit back and let this pollution happen." said Perry.
