In our rapidly growing world‚ human populations have sky rocketed within the past two generations. It is because of this that food must be harvested and provide sufficient nutrients at an unnatural rate. This is where modern science has stepped in‚ allowing farmers and agricultural workers to reliably yield a successful crop season. The spray on pesticides that eliminate any threat of unwanted parasites‚ insects‚ or other organisms that may inhibit the growth of the crops are a product of chemistry

Everyone on this planet deserves to have food security and not scarcity; in fact‚ a solution already exists in genetically modified foods. Genetically modified foods are adjusted to have more desirable properties by methods such as extracting DNA from one creature and inserting it into a food to give a certain characteristic. Despite the obvious benefit that this can provide‚ many Americans incorrectly believe that there is some need to regulate such foods. Despite those opinions‚ the United States

A music professor named David Dunn has received a patent on his procedures and technology for fighting bark beetles in the western United States. Dunn first became interested in the bark beetles and their ability to destroy drought weakened pine trees‚ when there was an influx of tree deaths in Northern New Mexico‚ where he was living at the time. Dunn began to wonder what that much biological activity sounded like‚ so he recorded the bark beetles using a listening device he built for ten dollars

If someone put gasoline in your plate of spaghetti in order to make it taste better or last longer‚ would you still eat it? Although it could be said that genetically modified organisms support an exponentially growing population and could possibly fortify crops with much needed vitamins and minerals‚ the risks greatly outweigh the benefits. GMOs are known to cause many health issues such as cancer‚ and ethically‚ it is more important to care about quality more than quantity. Foods higher in nutritional

Gmo’s are not safe Genetically Modified organisms or Gmo’s are unacceptable. People have been modifying genetics since the beginning of agriculture more than 10‚000 years ago. People have been utilizing selective breeding in order to produce superior crops and animal. However‚ not only their are creating superior crops and animals‚ their harming plants and animals during the process. We have been told GM crops will feed the world‚ but that’s clearly not the point. The type of GMOs that have

Indigenous to the lush South American tropical rain forests‚ the Toucan is recognized throughout the Americas‚ especially in the United States. Known for their unusual but unforgettably unique multi colored beaks‚ the function still has scientists puzzled. Scientists and researchers have studied the different functions‚ but have not been successful in determining it purpose‚ although they have determined it is not used as a weapon nor is it used to gather food. Toucans primarily feed on fruit while
