Today in living Enviorment we continued our roleplay. I am still a scientist. However for today we work in a group in which me and other "scientist" had to create a group statement on GM foods. Here goes...
We belive that the risks of GM foods outwiegh the benefits of the food as in many cases the food has proven to be more dangerous to both living organisms, the enviorment, and the economy. The introduction of new GM foods often results in new allergens or diseases and can lead to "super organisms" which will inevitavly destroy the GM crop. While GM foods have benefits, such as herbocide resistance, they do not tally up to enough to outwiegh the cons.
