That depends on what you mean by "What can we do…" If you mean how can we stop GMO foods or how can we avoid eating them, the answer is simple. Stop buying foods that you think might contain GMOs. When food manufacturers' profits decline, it does have an effect. An example is Cheerios. Apparently, sales dropped to the point that General Mills was losing money, so they modified the ingredients to eliminate GMOs in Cheerios.
