Marc Gunther over at GreenBiz.com wrote an article about the steady rise of genetically modified foods being grown around the world. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are going to become a big thing in the coming years. Opponents argue that genetically modified foods are unnatural foods that aren't as good for us as normal, natural foods. Supporters say that genetically modified foods are for the future of sustainability and progress for mankind.
Marc writes:
Farmers are voting for biotech, and they are doing so with their livelihoods at stake. This suggests that, at the very least, biotech crops deliver meaningful benefits to farmers -- they enable them to save money, or work less, or improve their productivity.
Head on over to Marc's posting on GreenBiz.com and read about the progress of genetically modified food and its growth in third world countries.
