Can GMO crops really feed the world... we doubt it
Posted by Dave Fuller on
Proponents of GM crops tell us that we need genetic modification to feed a growing population and reduce global hunger. A new report from the Canadian Biotechnology Action Network (CBAN), Will GM Crops Feed the World?, examines experiences with GM crops from around the world to answer this question.
The report exposes the many ways in which GM crops threaten the environment and farmers' livelihoods, and overlook the real causes of hunger. Using case studies from around the world, the report shows that there is no place for GM crops in an ecologically sustainable and socially just food system.
