Nullifying GMOs, not a big deal As we head deeper into the 21st century, new scientific discoveries are being build as the foundation for humanity. Genetic modification is one of the foundations that might crumple and collapse because of the dangers of genetically modified products. Genetically modified products are one of the minor issues that countries discuss and take action. In the United States, genetically modified food products are favored by the majority of the public, but some people have argued that the process of genetically modifying products is dangerous and can cause harm in humans if any mistakes in modifying is made. If all the reasons against GMOs are true, then taking all genetically modified products …show more content…
The majority of all stores in the United States sell genetically modified products and every year for one month stores across the United States put a ban on selling any genetically modified product(PRNewswire). Stephanie Strom writes an article about restaurants like Chipotle, has put restrictions on all genetically modified products being used at Chipotle. (PRNewswire) would support Strom because Strom argues that genetically modified products have a negative effect on nature and (PRNewswire) would agree to put restrictions on all GMOs to better slow down the creation of Genetically modified products which would in turn slow down the production of GMOs. If no one is creating GMOs, then the chances that GMOs affect nature are minimal. If the effects on nature caused by genetically modified products are minimal, it has a positive influence on Eco specialists, who look forward to bring balance to nature. Since eco-specialists care about nature, then they would oppose GMOs. If eco-specialists oppose GMOs, then taking all GMOs out of circulation would be a win-win situation to the eco-specialists. Recently Jessica Ware wrote an article called “Maggie noodles banned in India over concerns of excess lead levels.” In this article, Ware argues that a favorable food product in India was found with high concentrations of lead and lead is one of the most poisonous elements on Earth. I have myself consumed Maggie noodles and this information was so alarming that I was surprised that I was consuming dangerous amounts of lead. I am now glad that these noodles have been banned so there would be no dangerous incidents like death in the future. All of these are examples of the public and/or people taking action which shows that people like to be Eco friendly and safe. If people care more on their health then no one would buy GMOs so overall it has no effect on

    “You Are What You Eat,” “It’s our right to know what’s in our food. Pledge to choose non-GMO” (Non-GMO Project). Theses words are written boldly on an advertisement for the Non-GMO Project. I would agree with two of the three statements on this advertisement, one, “you are what you eat” and two, “it’s our right to know what’s in our food.” There is nothing wrong with being an advocate for good health practices, nor transparency.…

Not utilizing these tools will inadvertently stall production for the next 40-50…

    Ali3 Many people have a huge misconception about GMOs especially GM foods that they are harmful to both the human body and the environment, but various studies have proven quite the opposite. GMOs can bring a plethora of benefits to almost every industry ranging from medical use to agricultural but is held back by a majority that believes in false accusations and unsupported studies.

With the rise of GMOs in the United States, a chasm has been created between scientific evidence and the public 's perception of GMOs.

    However, there has not been enough conclusive evidence to conclude that GMOs are bad for humans. Banning GMOs would not solve a problem like this anyways, as nearly everyone takes in GM soybean products. It could even be argued that GM crops are safer than regular crops if they are designed to be resistant to pests. These plants would not need heavy duty chemicals to protect them, and there would be less damage to the environment around them. Pesticides in runoff can kill organisms that it was not intended for, but with pest resistance built in, pesticides are not needed.…
