A stronger argument is that of how the genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are affecting the environment through natural transgenic methods such as cross-pollination. With more research and cautious testing genetically engineered produce could launch us into a new age of prosperity. Many wonder where this world of

All the genetic alterations scientist are doing to GE foods seem to be cause allergic reactions to some people and introducing new toxins in to our bodies. Also this is introducing new toxins into the environment. In the book‚ Omnivores Dilemma‚ the farmer agreed about the health hazards saying that during harvest season that toxins from the crops seep into the water supply and

believe that GMOs do not provide enough nutrients and “good stuff”‚ therefore they believe that many people consuming GMOs are in danger. Others say that GMOs can fix world hunger because they can produce hundreds of GM foods at a time. My side is to believe that GMO shouldn’t be used to solve the problem of world hunger. What exactly are GMOs? Genetically modified foods are organisms manipulated in a laboratory setting‚ so their genetic make-up can be modified. Many supporters choose GMOs to prevent

Major food companies across America are launching a last ditch effort in congress to have mandatory GMO labelling scrapped before the year ends. According to The Associated Press (via Yahoo)‚ the food industry is pushing to make the labelling a voluntary process and is trying to get the legislation passed in a spending bill that lawmakers from both the Republican and Democratic parties are trying to finalize before the holidays. If this proposal were to become law‚ companies would not be required

Genetically modified organisms have you ever heard of such a thing? Well‚ they exist in the world around you‚ and many of you do not even know that you are consuming this organism without your knowledge. What are genetically modified organisms? The term genetically modified organism according to an internet site called Proquest states that plants are created for human or animal consumption using the latest molecular techniques.

technology has allowed the mass production of food. Unfortunately‚ the market has taken advantage of technology‚ not letting us know how food is made‚ leading to the birth of genetically modified Organisms (GMOs). GMOs are widely used in a range of foods today. Though most people are unaware of this‚ GMOs even exist in some of their favourite food products‚ especially fast foods. Many reports and illnesses have arised from the consumption of GM-foods‚ specifically
