The idea of GMO’s is smart but it’s manipulation of nature
Things are created as they are and I personally think that the modification of these are not needed. Even to increase things like yield
Good luck finding something thats not genetically modified somehow. Basically everything on a farm has been modified by artificial selection and/or genetic modification throughout history.
For reference, I'm someone who works with tons of farmers due to business, and one thing that they mention is that GMO crops just grow so well due to them not having any limiting factors, but some of them state that they'd stop using them if they could make their contracts meet, as they often observe that something about the plants is foreign to certain insects, and in some cases, their digestive system stops working, and they just die near the crops.
Now keep in mind, these are uncommon cases in the selection of small insects, so harm to us is a different factor altogether, especially since we as humans have strong livers
But one thing you need to distinguish is artificial selection and GMO. Artificial selection is simply selecting a gene that was already in the gene pool and expressed. With Monsanto, the genes are artificially manipulated in order to make them resistant to Roundup's glyphosate, and was not an artificial selection, but an artificial insertion concerning the genetic code
A kid with butterfly syndrome just got his whole life back with Tom skin grafts
It can défini be a good thing
Gmo skin grafts?
@GreenPixel try your link again lol
But we're talking about agricultural genetic modification
Gmos feed a large amount.of people and in fairness glyphosphate is better than other herbicides
Glyphosphate is still bad though
Gmos dont feed that many ppl
There is over 500 million farmers.
Only 18 million grow gmo
I have a ton of good facts on this stuff
Gmo are bad for the soil
As Adams points out, one would have to drink about 41,000 liters of this beer in one sitting to intake the same amount of glyphosate as one single drop of Roundup weedkiller accidentally spilled on one’s skin while spraying yard weeds.
“If you spill just one milliliter of 41 percent glyphosate on your skin, you are exposed to 410,000 [micrograms] of glyphosate, which goes right through your skin and into your blood,” Adams explains. “In contrast, if you drink a full liter of beer that contains just 10 ppb of glyphosate, your total exposure is just 10 [micrograms].”

It is frightening and alarming how mankind refuses to realize or understand that messing with nature and trying to be like gods can come back to haunt us a billion-fold. When are people going to wake up? 😡

**What are the impacts of GMOs on the environment?**
More than 80% of all genetically modified crops grown worldwide have been engineered for herbicide tolerance.3 As a result, the use of toxic herbicides, such as Roundup®, has increased fifteenfold since GMOs were first introduced.4 In March 2015, the World Health Organization determined that the herbicide glyphosate (the key ingredient in Roundup®) is “probably carcinogenic to humans.”

what's particularly frightening is how glyphosate resistance is conferred to plants like corn/soy
