Summary Of The GMO Deception

The GMO Deception
A GMO is a genetically modified organism. A deception is the action of deceiving someone. This combined makes the book The GMO Deception. This book is written by more than forty different authors, scientifical activists against and for the uses of GMOs, biotech nets, and agricultural activists,etc. The use of this magnitude of authors made this book a lot more interesting to read because of all of the clashing ideas and ideas that built upon other ideas about GMOs. The GMO Deception was Edited by Sheldon Krimsky who is a Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning at Tufts University, and adjunct professor in the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health at Tufts University School of Medicine. It was

John is the founder of the Global ID group. The Global ID group is a company founded by John Fagen. GIDG is a company that with Johns help now pioneers in the development of innovative tools to verify food purity,quality, and sustainability. He has a very strong opinion on people saying that GMOs are “the future” of agriculture. He says “The biggest myth of the all is that GMOs have swept the world and dominate agriculture as it is practiced today. The corollary of this myth is that if your country don 't accept GMOs it will be left behind.” This quote says over and over again the word myth.

Bill kind of supports John 's argument that GMOs being “ The future” is just a skyme from big corporations to make them more money. Bill says “Hype notwithstanding, their is not a single GM crop on the market engineered for increased yield, drought tolerance, salt tolerance, enhanced nutrition or other attractive sounding traits.

Why not use that a little bit of the billions of dollars that the companies make and send them to those that
