According to Shiva, seeds bred in laboratory will eliminate the option of organic farming and affect plant ecosystems negatively and new technologies are killing the alternatives, which will lead to “monocultures and deadness” (Specter, p.2). As Spector indicates in “Seeds Of Doubt,” Shiva asserts that the purpose of genetic engineering technology is to “patent life” and “impose this order worldwide.” She rejects such technology because “life is not an invention” and genetic engineering will lead to the loss of diversity and integrity of living resources (Spector, p.8). From the perspectives of those who dominate the debate over GMOs, new technology being able to patent life becomes an obstacle for anti-GMO activists to accept GM food products and agricultural biotechnology. In order to making their perception of genetically modified food the one widely accepted, they strive to prevent general public from accepting GM
