If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
Parts I and II here: http://sep7agon.net/serious/genetic-engineering-crispr/

Part III - GMO's; good, bad, what do they do for us and what are they?
YouTube

So we all have some manner of opinion on them,or at least have heard of them. I think they sound like a great idea when they increase the amount of food for a growing population whilst taking up no more land or resources to produce, and also positively impact areas where food is harder to grow. On the other hand SecondClass, ironically or not, believes they are bad because of the MNC's behind them as well as the nature of them (or more accurately, lack thereof).

So, thoughts? Has watching the video (and reading the sources to back up the claims mentioned if your sceptic) changed your mind about them or told you something you didn't know?

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
I mean, all we're doing is speeding up the process of selective breeding of plants... GMO' s ain't nothing to be scared of.

There's no compelling evidence against them, which is the crux of the issue. Complaints about Big Agra are irrelevant to whether GMOs are safe.

Signature goes here.
GMOs are literally evil incarnate and will kill your future babies and harvest their organs.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
What's the point in GMOs when our world is going to end up being too hot for vegetation?

One of the advantages to widespread GMO adoption is that this can be mitigated.
GMOs can be designed to survive in warmer climates with less water, allowing for farming to be viable in areas where it would otherwise be impossible.
