At this moment, pollutants are being put in the air and harming the earth. Animals that are used for their manure emits ten percent of the world’s methane into the air ("Methane Emissions"). This is very harmful to the earth and its inhabitants. However, the amount of this dangerous gas from manure can be reduced by genetic engineering. A study shows that feeding genetically modified maize to pregnant cows reduces the amount of methane their offspring releases (http://aem.asm.org/content/79/24/7735.full#cited-by). This will help reduce the pollutants being put in the air. Without funding for genetic engineering, the world would never have known about the good things, such as this maize. Some human beings are trying to stop companies from modifying

“Producing medicines in animal milk holds so much promise that even nonprofit agencies like the American Red Cross (ARC) are interested” (Sinha). A study has been done that healing proteins could be extracted from animal’s milk. This would give cows and other milk producing animals another purpose. Sinha also has said that scientist are trying to insert human proteins into chickens and hopefully their eggs will have the same proteins. These two studies would not only contribute to animals, but also to the healthcare …show more content…
Funding could help the agricultural field by modifying plants to store more water, and that will take many states out of the drought they are in. Also it could make plants naturally insect resistant and that will save farmers on purchasing insecticides. Animals would be healthier and benefit the healthcare field if got the correct funding. Genetic modifications in medicine could make it more available and everyone could get vaccines, even people that are scared of needles. While some say it is unethical, studies show that genetic engineering would give hope for a better
