Genetically modified organisms (GMOs)‚ an organism who’s DNA has been altered in such a way that it would be more beneficial‚ has garnered great debate as to whether or not it is harmful or if it will be the crop of the future. Many scientists believe that GMOs have the possibility to end world hunger as well as produce a higher density of crops which would result in less deforestation.

Nursing Shortages and Continuing Education The debate continues over the reason for the shortage of nurses‚ especially at the bachelor’s degree level‚ and what can be done to attract more associate degree nurses (ADN /RN) to continue their education into the baccalaureate degree (BSN) level.
