Curious as to where you read these things TheCrownless Send a noteboard - 13/09/2012 08:41:43 PM
GMOs just upped the ante because the long term effects are almost impossible to know now, and because they prevent farmers replanting seed, sterilize the next generation of neighboring related plants, crowd out the other plants through natural selection, and kill harmless or even beneficial neighboring organisms through biologically produced pest/herbicides.


I have an interest in the field and I haven't come across anything close to substantial evidence that they actually happen outside lab conditions (and in a couple of the scenarios you mentioned not even that). I'd be interested if you could point me in the direction of the journal articles where they show it happens, I'm amazed I haven't come across them myself.

I'd be interested in knowing what you guys think about organic food kHz1000 - 11/09/2012 08:01:41 PM 1235 Views
I think it makes sense in some cases but mostly it makes you feel like you are doing something random thoughts - 11/09/2012 08:25:54 PM 699 Views

I'm familiar with the literature on this matter actually. TheCrownless - 13/09/2012 07:26:09 PM 642 Views

Thank you for you perspective! *NM* kHz1000 - 11/09/2012 10:14:49 PM 324 Views
I think organic food is a luxury that few will want as food prices increase in the coming decades. Tom - 11/09/2012 10:11:33 PM 662 Views

I hold to the view that most food is organic Isaac - 12/09/2012 12:15:27 AM 838 Views
If you are also interested in more views, todays New York Times is discussing it, also. Joel - 12/09/2012 02:45:22 AM 782 Views

I think the organic movement is mostly a big scam: an excuse to charge more money for less food. Tim - 12/09/2012 11:40:40 PM 646 Views
Actually, I believe the "no pesticides" part predates the "no GMOs" part. Joel - 13/09/2012 05:26:53 AM 674 Views

Joel is becoming (or has totally become) a crazy conspiracy nut. Tom - 14/09/2012 02:52:38 PM 680 Views
I am aware of no corroborating scientific research, no Joel - 14/09/2012 03:53:42 PM 733 Views
