GMOs Overview - Unrealistic Goals?



url.jpg

GMOs are always a hot topic, everyone by now has at least heard of them. The goal of the GMO producers is to get rid of world hunger. This is there overall goal, it makes you think, is it really possible? This article is a question and answer sort of set up and it answers frequently asked questions. This would be great for people that dont know too much and want to explore the topic. The article starts out with some interesting statements that stop and wonder a little bit. They start with what GMOs could potentially turn into like fruits with vaccines in them. This has actually been successfully done! The amounts of vaccine in the fruit are not quite to the levels where it could be widely dispersed. The goal of that genetically modified fruit is to get rid of needles and the storage aspect of vaccines and turn it into a local entity that could grow the vaccines essentially in the midst of the people who need them. For more on vaccines in fruits check out ( www.abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=119866&page=2#.UXDByhzlT58 ). My point in bringing GMOs up is because we only know the tip of the iceberg. I found one article written in 2000 about vaccines in fruit, imagine where it is now!
Theres some food for thought. (vaccine infused food that is)
