Genetically modified organism, have been an uproar epidemic within the United States. The use of genetically modified have been a controversial topic for decades, whether they are harmful or not.Genetically modified organisms should not be used in our food products, not only because they harm our environment, causes a decrease in biodiversity in the plants, and are not fair to Americans who do not exactly what they are putting inside their bodies.
The public perceptions of and concerns over risks for the environment and human health deriving from the release of genetically modified organisms and their use as food and feed are the driving forces towards disseminating information.

(Jorge, and Caswell.) What does this mean? This means that the government is changing and multiplying what is in our food. Scientists believe that it creates diversity, but in reality it 's decreasing the diversity within plants and other organisms. The big question that everyone ask is “So why are GMOs so bad?” FIrst off, GMOs do not create diversity instead create problems. GMOs could potentially create a genetic pollution. The use of so many genetically modified crops that are not able to regulate well could possibly mix with non genetic crops can create genetic pollution within them. (Brandt, Alyssa). An example of how are GMOs taking over the crops throughout the world is in Canada. 73% of Canada’s oilseed rape area are now genetically modified. As a result the non-GM stocks are now contaminated. (Lekha, and Ansari.). Secondly, The number of farmers who farm organic food products such as fruits, vegetables, grains, etc. have decreased drastically, because of the Genetic Modified crops that the government makes them use has the potential to wipe out organic farming all together. (Lekha, and Ansari.). The government created
