The good that can come from genetically modified food are; it can make crops pest proof, disease resistant, more nutritious, and intolerable to weather conditions. This will make farmers more confident in their crops and not have to worry so much about losing
One of the remaining ethical issues and the one that gives pause to stakeholders about the viability of GM products is the possible harm to human health. Since it is a new possibility, the attainable consequences are not yet to be seen. To prevent potential damaged, Hugh Grant –current CEO– focused Monsanto’s biotechnology in products that would not be served directly at the dinner plate. Several important decisions in the matter of ethics and health have been taken to provide security to stakeholders so they can believe Monsanto’s reliability. Also, many charitable actions show that what the company is looking for is a social commitment to improve live conditions and to give more opportunities to do well.
Dear Senator, In less than two decades, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have replaced our diet with genetically ajusted foods, which can affect human health. GMOs are resistant to pesticides, and is created by splicing genes that are combined through genetic engineering, smething nature cant do instantly. Consuming these genetically, processed foods can lead to increased risk of diseases and even cancer. Most of the time we do not realize that we are eating these harmful toxins as they are infused in our food without our knowledge. While traditional farming choose to grow organic produce and struggle to keep their businesses alive.
CD Docs The opinion towards England changed from America admiring them and following them blindly to genuinely not caring. They were very angry with the war and not being reimbursed and the taxes. Franklin says that England will have to use weapons and military force in order to get America to start paying taxes. Their attitude says that they would rather wear ratty, old clothes until they can learn how to make their own rather than pay extra taxes on clothes made in England. Dickenson wrote everything as “a farmer” so people could see he was normal, just like them.
Genetically Modified Food can be accepted Nowadays, with technology’s developing, more and more Genetically Modified (GM) Foods are produced and come out in many markets around the world. However, there are a great number of people who think the GM foods are dangerous and may do harm to their health. Therefore, they can’t accept GM foods. Unfortunately, I believe that GM foods are available in our lives because they have never been proven to harm people so far, they are more nutritious than traditional foods somewhat and they also can benefit farmers a lot for their working procedures actually. Professor Ian Campbell from Australia's Peter MacCallum Cancer Center says that no scientific evidence showing that GM food is harmful to people's health has been presented to date.
Wyatt Hinze Period 4 GMOs GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) are the product of the human race trying to keep up with the growing number of people needing food and are made to increase productivity and harvest. They are created from scientists Changing the DNA of said organisms so they are more resistant to diseases and pests. For example the roundup ready soybeans created by the Monsanto corporation are resistant to roundup and if you have seen the movie Food Inc. you know some of the effects this has had. As a consumer I think GMOs should be labeled because we do not know what the effects of them to the environment and our bodies. They could destroy an ecosystem or cause genetic mutations in humans or make us into super
Instead of profiting from a high yield the producers will lose customers because of their anxiety towards the foreign milk. Hypothetically the producers would have benefited from the advancement, but realistically, nations worldwide would want a guarantee that their people are not going to be harmed. It is natural for people to be scared of change, and the fear of genetically altered food is a prime example of
Some of the knows health risks from GM are that in stores they do not have nutrition facts/ingredients for GM chemicals in the foods therefore people who have allergies to nuts est. would not be able to eat Gm food because of the chemical traits, by this I mean when scientists put genes into some crops the mixture causes the crops natural genes to be unpredictable and scientists can not analyze for harmful affects within the crops. This leads to unknown toxins and this may cause allergic reactions.
Genetically Modified Foods Labeling Problems Genetically modified foods have developed massively to satisfy customers’ demand, but they have caused some controversies in society in recent decades, especially over labeling problems. Some people think that labeling GM foods will cause a decrease in consuming them. However, others think that this may help consumers categorize suitable products for them. There are three main reasons for mandatorily tagging GM foods. Let’s see how much you know about genetically modified foods and why people have to label them?
Big supermarkets like Tesco, Waitrose has expressed that GM crops are banned in their supermarkets due to their customers wanting the purest products available on the market therefore their customers will not buy their products if they sell GM products. Whereas supermarkets such as Marks & Spencer’s has expressed view that they do not mind having GM products on their shelves since it will be available in the near future if we do not distribute food evenly around the world. Genetically modified plants are made by knowing things about the structure, function or location on chromosomes is used to identify the gene(s) that is responsible for the desired trait in an organism, for example, drought tolerance or insect resistance. Then, the most commonly used gene transfer tool for plants is a circular molecule of DNA (plasmid) from the naturally occurring soil bacterium. The gene(s) of interest is inserted into the plasmid using recombinant DNA (rDNA) techniques.
