Creating plants that have unprecedented attributes is begging for plant diseases to develop with unprecedented attributes. We can't even deal with our own diseases yet, its no time to be testing supercharged lifeforms on the natural environment. We are already lucky to have trees that grow fast enough and are well suited for construction uses. We are lucky to have sun and wind strong enough replace our unsustainable power sources. We're even lucky we didn't wipe out the ozone layer a few decades ago - only a chance of chemistry gave us enough time to respond. The global climate and ecological crisis should be a wake up call to appreciate the vulnerability and suitability of the web of life that evolved us, not a mandate for ever more bold experiments on it.
