GMOs are bad!

GMO crops require far less pesticides than organic crops desu.

> No, organic does not mean "no pesticides"

I work for those companies so buy up and I get a big bonus mate

The process of GM is fine.

The problem is when companies TM a plant and sue people for growing it.

it's pretty neat how many vegetables came about from one single plant: the wild cabbage.

If greenhouse gases are so powerful, why do we still need to build houses around the gases?

GMO's themselves aren't bad. It's the pesticides that they use on them and the concept of 1 year terminal death seeds that took me a bit to understand

Fuck off monsanto. Who has put insect genes into corn before your company?

The issue of GMO's is fundamentally a math problem.

On the one side, you have GMO foods that feed a given number of people. Yields go up, and more people can be fed.

Take away GMO's and fertilizers and pesticides and insecticides, and yields will go down. This means that the number of people who can be fed declines, so more people will starve.

Pick one side of the equation.

Selective breeding and genetic modification are not the same thing. Just like the Falkland Islands and Argentina are not the same thing.

Well to be fair, if we are to use GMOs, then infertile seeds are pretty much mandatory to prevent them from leaking into the wild. The consequences of that could be potentially catastrophic.
