OK, this is bound to stir things up: are GMO's 'evil' ?
We have been modifying genetics since man first learned to farm, about 6000 years ago (in Britain). By allowing certain sheep or goats to breed, we've overridden 'nature' for our benifit. How is this different from selectively choosing one genome to enhance, say, a cow to produce more milk ? In a controlled lab environment, a single trait can be isolated, then passed onto the same, or other species. Disease resistant wheat, rice or potatoes feed millions. How can this be 'bad' ? Seems to me those who are afraid of GMOs should stop protesting and start reading a little on the subject.
