GMOs involve using chemicals too but the chemicals meant to destroy the harmful insects also destroy the beneficial insects as well which causes the need for more genetically modification than anticipated (Lundquist, 2015). GMOs are poisonous to mammals, toxic to soil, making seed varieties extinct, destroying forest life, and creating super weeds and super pests (Khan, Muafia, Nasreen, & Salariya, 2012). The super weeds and super pests are created because they become resistant to the chemicals that were being used to prevent them before. Glyphosate is a chemical that is used for GMOs but it is killing milkweed that is a food source for monarch butterflies (Pols,
