| Let me change the question so that it doesn't lead us into philosophy. :) Are genetically modified vegetables and fruits dangerous healthwise? |

| In a sense, humans have been genetically engineering for centuries. The selective breeding that has produced domestic cattle, pigs and dogs is a form of genetic engineering. Likewise, most of our crops have been selectively bred, and bear little resemblance to their wild counterparts. I read "Day of the Triffids" some years ago - this has made me frightened of genetic engineering :book: I do not understand why we need genetic engineering. In the 80s/90s, we had the infamous "grain mountain" (and oil and wine lakes) of surplus produce in the EU. Cuba is self sufficient and organic: read here Genetic engineering in countries that can will not save lives in countries suffering famine (where war, social ignorance and goverment corruption are often contributing to the situation). |
