    These words were spoken by a Nobel Prize winning biologist and Harvard professor‚ George Wald‚ in a lecture given in 1976 on the Dangers of Genetic Engineering. This quotation states that incredible inventions‚ such as genetic engineering‚ are not always beneficial to society. Genetic engineering is “altering the genetic material of cells and/or organisms in order to make them capable of making new substances or performing new functions” (Wald 45). It is also one of the top controversial

    Genetically modified organisms or GMO’s is one of the most highly debated issues nationwide. GMO’s are organisms whose genetic material has been genetically engineered to improve productivity‚ quality and resist extreme circumstance and chemicals. Ensuring an adequate food source for this growing population will be a major challenge in years to come. GMO’s will be able to meet those needs because that is the reasoning behind genetically modified. More crops can yielded and prices can stay low
