Modified Rankin Scale

There are many reasons I am against GMO´s. GMOs are Genetically Modified Organisms. GMOs is when you take one gene from one organism and put it into another organism. GMOs can be very harmful to the environment and wildlife. GMOs are produced by human actions. They also have long term effects on the environment and wildlife. GMOs can be very toxic to non-targeted animals. The animals that it may be toxic to is bees, butterflies and birds. The World Health Organisation says that the bees that…

Advancements in technology has definitely changed the way of living. In the world that we live in today, Genetically Modified Organisms has taken over mostly everything within our community ranging from plants, animals, as science advances. Even though this technique has been used for years, recent concerns about the health of humans has stirred up and has created a major controversial issue. Multiple tests have been ran to ensure the safety of these organisms, however, there still seem to be…

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 plant or animal” (Seeds of Deception). The results had no health benefits, only financial benefits to the companies that produce them. The genetically modified organisms…

May 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…

As in the case with any business, Monsanto Company must have a patent on the products it produces. Monsanto’s seeds that it produces are protected under patent law and the patent states “farmers using Monsanto seeds are not allowed to harvest seeds from the plants for use in upcoming seasons” (Ferrell & Hartline, 2014, p. 345). This means that farmers must purchase new Monsanto seeds each growing season. By doing so, Monsanto Company secures its profitability as well as maintaining control of…

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…

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 create a Genetically Modified Organisms plant they would add DNA from another organism…

Labeling foods should be a law. One reason why it should be a law is because people need to watch out on how many calories something has, and also because it is better to know, especially when you are on a diet. The second reason why labeling food should be a law is because it is part of the "Affordable Care Act of 2010." The third reason is because if restaurants label their foods then they are helping the people know what they are putting in their bodies. Labeling foods should be a law, it can…

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…
