Corn & beans genetically modified to resist insects, no need for insecticide. Cows genetically modified to produce more milk, no need for growth chemicals. Think about grain that could grow with very little water and the famines caused by drought in Africa.
I don’t think it is possible, but is there any potential harm that could come to humans by eating genetically modified or engineered foods? Can our systems (DNA, genes) somehow be altered because the food we eat has been altered? Or, is this a case of people that don’t understand the facts and are quick to jump to irrational fears? (Like the move to irradiate food a few years ago).
In a way, I wouldn’t mind eating genetically modified corn if I would then become immune to attacks from mosquitoes!
BTW, I tried to do a search but the engine just locked up and never returned any results.
