    Just a couple of things you should be aware of:

    Monsanto is not the only company that develops and markets genetically engineered seeds

    Genetically engineered crops do not require "poisonous chemicals". Some GE crops have been specifically developed to reduce the need for pesticides. Others have been bred to have resistance to certain herbicides, but even growers using conventionally-bred varieties typically use herbicides and other pesticides, just different ones.

    There are 7 BILLION people on this planet. Do you REALLY think you're going to feed them all with organic farming techniques?

    Well ... you're not. And when that number reached 8 or 10 billion, we'll need the technology even more.

    Why are liberals so absolutely certain of climate change science, which is built on projective computer models, but absolutely against GMO science, which has real-world biological and chemical proof of their safety?
