Sure GMOs might be safe? Golden Rice? Yes that one is probably good for humanity, increased protein levels means you can feed more people. But lets get real, the majority of GMOs being used in agriculture are produced by Monsanto or Bayer, and what is the improvement that modifying their genes has made? Oh thats right now you can spray pesticides on them and they won't die!!
Sorry but Roundup ready GMOs might be safe if grown without drenching them in poison but if the only reason they are "GMO'd" is to allow this, I would prefer products made with GMO to be labeled.
- postpawl 7y agoThere’s a study about that too: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5394230/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5394230/ “Although GE crops have been previously implicated in increasing herbicide use, herbicide increases were more rapid in non-GE crops.”
