Genetically modified foods Genetically modified crops are harmful to humans and the environment and should not be used. Agriculture should proceed in harmony with nature and nature alone. That's why some people have decided to buy organically grown foods. From their experiences with organic food, they believe that the organic system can be economically practical. This system also offers a wide range of environmental and social benefits and, most importantly, allows consumers to make a choice about the food they eat. According to Diana Brander, an American biology teacher, we should have the possibility to choose the type of food we eat. But at a time when organic food sales are soaring, the development of agriculture is eliminating an essential choice about the food we eat and the food we eat. raising important questions about the future of our food and our environment. The USDA has demonstrated that genetically modified crops are a key factor that will increase yields through techniques that are simply an extension of traditional plant breeding methods. The fundamental difference between traditional and genetically modified plant breeding is that genetic material from one species of plant, bacteria, virus, animal or fish is inserted into another species that under natural circumstances could not reproduce. We do not know the long-term consequences for human health and the environment of releasing plants raised in this way. The USDA assures us that new plants are tested, but unless a genetically modified crop is proven to be dangerous or unsafe, there is no reason to stop its use. There may be some issues that aren't apparent for quite some time that could harm their environment. We were told by the USDA that genetics... middle of paper... brought enormous benefits to animals. of humanity, but there is a danger, especially in sensitive areas such as food, health and the long-term future of our environment. We go to great lengths to establish what is technically possible without thinking about the long-term effects it may have on humans and the environment. Many people believe that we should stop and ask ourselves these important questions. Of course we all have to make up our own minds about these important issues. Many people have no interest in eating genetically modified foods. The organic food industry is getting bigger and bigger as people become more aware of what they consume and the environment around them. Consumers should be aware of the harmful effects produced by genetically modified crops. Genetically modified crops are harmful to humans and the environment and should not be used.
