GMO - Aiden Romero
Benefits
-
Environmental friendly food
Example: They can be more environmental friendly because they wouldn't require as much care by storage. They would do so because we wouldn't throw them away because we would like them. Also we could make them be fresh longer.
Citation: “Genetically modified crops and animals will also be more environmentally friendly because they conserve water, soil, and energy” (Decode Science).
More Nutritious
Citation: “For example, engineers are able to create rice that has vitamin A and iron. The modified rice is more nutritious” (Should the U.S. Support...).
Example: People in the poor parts of Africa may suffer from vitamin A deficiency. But the GMO rice called golden rice can help prevent that.
Concerns
Sketchy Records
Example: The people that make these GMO foods aren't always the most trustworthy of them all. They have bad backgrounds sometimes and have even sometimes been criminals for miss using chemicals. So do you want someone to put chemicals in your food that has miss used them before.
Citation:
“These massive biotech companies have a history of toxic contamination” (8 Reasons GMOs are Bad).
Could have side effects
Example: In all of the commercials at the very end they say all of the bad things fast and at the end so you don't hear. Well GMO's don't have to say anything so one day like allergic reactions you could die or be seriously hurt.
Citation: “By mixing genes from totally unrelated species, genetic engineering unleashes a host of unpredictable side effects” (10 Reasons to Avoid GMOs).
