GMOs Nicholas Morales
CONCERNS :warning:

-
It can harm animals
In the video we watched called "The Scarecrow", It shows two animals a cow and a chicken. The cow is in a machine that was (I think) taking out milk. Then they had the chicken get poked with a needle and blows up.

BENEFITS :smiley:
-
Reduces Food Waste
CITATION: “Genetic engineering has been used to modify potatoes and apples in order to eliminate superficial browning and bruising (potato only) when the produce is cut or handled. These traits can help reduce the amount of produce thrown away by producers, processors, retailers and consumers” (GMO Basics).
-
Insect Resistant
STATISTIC:88% corn, 94% of soy, &97% of sugar beets are Gmo with a gene to kill off insects.
-
-
CLAIM:A major concern of GMOs is that we dont know what is in them because they can put anything without thinking what it could do to us.
EVIDENCE: “The consequences of eating genetically modified foods are unclear. Currently, companies do not have to tell consumers if they use genetically modified ingredients” (Should the U.S. Support...).
