Genetically modified food controversies

Science, chemical and big name companies had done hazardous experiments with the consumers food without the world’s communities approval and it still continues today. Labeling the genetically modified organisms was also known as “Proposition 37.” Genetically modified organisms had contaminated the food supply. “A GMO (genetically modified organism) is the result of a laboratory process where genes from the DNA of one species are extracted and artificially forced in the genes of an unrelated…

2016 Did you know that using genetically modified organisms decreases the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide, which decreases the risk of global warming. Not using GMOs will increase the use of pesticides, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and fertilizers. Today, I will try to persuade you why GMOs should be used in everyday farming. GMO is short for Genetically Modified Organism, which means that food and drink are injected with a genetically modified organism to give the food or drink a certain…

In Anna Miller's article on genetically modified foods written in April of 2015, she questions the harmfulness of using genetically modified organisms in food we eat. Miller uses many sources describing why GMO foods are unsafe for consumption, for example, “..the FDA has approved genetically modified foods should mean there safe, that’s a false assumption since the administration skirted its own rules.” The FDA may make rules about whether GMO’s are safe they also use scientific studies and…

For my Senior Experience I did my research paper on Genetically Modified Food and why it should be labeled and separated from Non-Genetically Modified Food. When I started the project picking a topic was easy. I knew I wanted to do it on genetically modified food because I want to be a chef and we had just watched a movie about genetically modified food and how it can harm the human body in culinary. After watching this movie I was filled with questions and doing this research paper was an easy…

Independent Science News Food Health and Agriculture Bioscience News, Jonathan Latham, a plant biologist, expresses in his experience Genetically Modified Organism’s quick transition from the lab to the industry, the high risks of Genetically Modified Organism plants, and the dangerous toxins that are placed inside Genetically Modified Organism plants. Jonathan Latham explains, in the beginning of his research he worked in the labs and assisted in created Genetically Modified Organism plants. to…

I'd like you to review and support the upcoming Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act of 2015, which would protect our country's food supply and provide consistent and truthful information to all consumers. Foods labeled as "all natural" and "GMO-free" interest many shoppers who are concerned with their family's nutritional health. Labeling foods with these claims is a smart marketing decision, but there is no way to tell if these labels are accurate. Individual states recognize this problem and…

The GMO's have modified genetics cause a longer life span by making you healthier. Data shows that life expectancy from early life on earth had grown. The wealthier the country the longer the life span. (2, 13) Since countries who have more money are free to modify their food to feed the country. Scientists predict that biotechnology and GMO's will create a healthier world. Thus, expanding the human life span. GMO's in food are expanding life spans per more people who have eaten food with…

Genetically modified grains have good things about them, but they also have bad things. These modified grains give farmers and the environment help. For the farmers it is cheaper to grow and it's more reliable for harvest. For the environment there is no soil erosion, but there is a new gene coming into the environment. These modified grains like corn, wheat, rice, and soy have stronger colors and have better life on the shelf. The genetically modified grains are better for farming, but some…

Food is paramount for human life to maintain good health and survive. Today, foods across the world are being genetically modified in order to increase production and improve the nutrition of food. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) pose a threat to the human race in terms of physical health, agriculture, and the food chain that sustains our environment. The Monsanto Corporation is a major GMO seed supplier, which has developed genetically modified seeds to resist their own herbicide, Roundup…

Genetically-modified(GM) crops are fostered through the integration of different biologic genes by tissue culture and gene recombination technology, the majority of those embraces crops corns, cotton, bean and rapeseed, which occupied 16% of total cultivated area among those original crops. Countries have been tested over 200 types of GM crops around the world since 1998s, it is increasingly playing a significant role in the society. Environmental organizations wish to curb the production of GM…
