The Great GMO Debate
Introduction:
Gmos have been introduced since the 1970s, and they have taken place of our main food supply. Although the creations of Gmos worry citizens about the unknown process of mutating our food supply these are just incorrect accusations while Gmos are beneficial for the stability of our society.
The Debate on the Safety of Genetically Modified Organisms:
In the last few decades Gmos have be introduced in order to fulfill our cultures supply needs for food. Genetically Modified Organisms can be crops that have a modified DNA sequence that is superior than naturally occurring plants. Abbie Goldbas states that, “Gmos are organisms whose genetic makeups have been changed by mutating, inserting, or deleting …show more content…
This principle states that whenever a certain activity imposes a threat to the environment or human health, measures will be enforced even if it is not officially scientifically proven. Falkner continues to discuss the precautionary principle as how most of the EU stands without having that potential risk.
As far as we know, GMOs are not harmful. Mark Lynas, the a British author specializing in climate change, discusses his story on how he was an activist against the production of GM food; after he became more informed about the benefits outweighing the costs, he realized the scientific breakthrough scientist had in the palms of their hands. GM decrease the use of agrichemicals and pesticides, which are far more harmful than using the effort to genetically modify food. According to Lynas trillions of meals have been prepared and not one study shows any evidence of promoting GM food to be harmful.
Furthermore, there is a large debate whether or not Gmos prove to be harmful, but there is currently no evidence showing that it is harmful. Gmos provide a great benefit of food supply across the world, and further innovations can lead to disease resistance, and other future modernizations.
