Gmo Is About Genetic Threats & Sustainable FUTURES. IN Recent Years, "you Are What You Eat" Has Become a Popular Adage, a Truism, Perhaps a Bit of a Cliche. There Is Little Doubt That the Quality and Variety of the Food We Eat Has a Profound Impact on Our Health and Well BEING. BUT in Recent Years, a New Threat Has Emerged That Challenges Our Ability to Make the Most Basic Choices About Our Food. The New Technology of Genetic Engineering (ge), Coupled with An Unprecedented Concentration of Corporate Control over the Processing and Distribution of Food and Especially the Sources of Our Seeds Has Cast Doubt on the Safety and Integrity of Even Some of the Most Common Foods We Eat Every DAY. THUS Far, Genetic Engineering on a Large Scale Has Been Largely Limited to Four Basic Crops: Soybeans, Corn, Cotton and Canola. Hawaiian Papayas, Some Varieties of Summer Squash, and Milk from Cows Injected with a Genetically Engineered Hormone, Monsanto's Notorious Recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone (rbgh), Are Also Affected to Varying Degrees. But When We Consider the Pervasiveness of Various Soy and Corn Extracts in Processed Foods Even "natural" Processed Foods the Broad Extent of the Problem Is Revealed. The More Scientists Learn About the Consequences of Genetic Engineering (also Known As Genetic Modification, Hence the Popular Abbreviation Gmos, for "genetically Modified Organisms"), the More Alarmed We Become About How This Technology Is Affecting Our Health and the ENVIRONMENT.
