A cynic might say "follow the money". There's an awful lot of money behind the push for GMO, and a powerful company with a reputation for doing unethical things (Monsanto). Many people are quite emotionally (and/or politically) invested in the concept of global warming. I'm not saying I disagree that GMOs are harmless or that global warming is occurring, only that often when people speak with such vitriol they're doing it in the name of money or emotion, not science.
- ianstallings 13y agoYeah that happens on both sides of some scientific debates these days. Ones that usually effect all of us, such as GMO or climate chance. I bet the guys over in doing astrophysics are very thankful no one is getting the pitch forks out because of dark matter claims. We'll work through it, as we always do. In the meantime we'll have to try and focus on thoughtful and healthy debate.
