Pro Gmos : Good And Negative Essay Of GMO

Agronomists have been working on these problems for years, but the rapid population growth of humans makes overcoming these challenges increasingly urgent. If we can’t feed the world, it will eventually feed on us.” (Newsweek/United Nations) Scientists find a way to add “medicine” to plant genes, which help it withstands pest attacks and drought problems.“Some GMO corn crops can protect harvests in water-limited conditions better than conventionally produced crops. Other GMOs can also promote use of no-till farming, which keeps more moisture in the soil. No-till also enables farmers to make fewer passes through the field using machinery, which means less fuel used and greenhouse gases emitted.”(Monsanto) GMOs are useful for helping with planting crops in any area of the world.

So why do we use GMOs? Well there is a “So-called advantage” with these products that it costs less to produce and they are better quality. But do we know if they’re better quality or our bodies? There’s not enough research to prove that the human race and other organisms have suffered dire consequences from consuming these genetically engineered foods. However there are some linkages that link GMOs to some health problems, environmental damage, and farmer/consumer rights.

A major upside to GMOs is fighting world hunger. People also need to realize that the world population is increasing rapidly (Baragona).The only way that we will be able to support the growing population is to produce more food while still using the same amount or less resources. Farmers can do this by through the use of GMO’s. GMO’s have certain traits that non-GMO organisms don't have that can make crops produce more food and resources while using less water and

GMOs protect our food from containing diseases. According to this view, animals can be engineered to require less food and grow at a faster rate. They claim that animals are also more resistant to harmful diseases that could contaminate our food. Animals are also engineered to reproduce much faster. They state GMOs can also engineer animals so that their tissues, organs, and cells can be transplanted into humans. Despite the negative contributions of pesticides, some tend to also conclude that having pesticides in our produce is an advantage. Pesticides are used to repel, kill or control animals, so why are they being used in our food? According to the EPA, pesticides are the only effective way to control disease organisms. They also help increase the amount of food in each area of land. Pesticides protect our health also by disinfecting things such as our drinking water. However, they fail to realize that GMOs and pesticides are negatively affecting animals and humans.

A. Supporters will tell you that GMOs help produce more nutritious tastier foods, disease and drought resistant plants, increased supply of food to help feed the world, reduced pesticide use, economic and environmental benefits, and reduced energy use.

Although GMO’s in my opinion are considered bad, there are some benefits to them. One reason is that they are cheap, and affordable. Ingredients grown using GM technology require fewer pesticides, and less water making them cheap. This is very beneficial to those who may live in certain places, where food is hard to come by. They are able to afford the food, because of the

Gmos, genetically modified foods, are some of the most common science experiments we’ve done. We use them to alter our food either for better or for worse. I don’t believe we should use GMOs unless we truly have to because of the costs, health issues, and all of the unknown factors with the usage. We, today, depend on them more than we have to or should. I think there could be and are better things to put in place of GMOs that have better benefits. We just have to let them go and search for the right answer.

For thousands of years, humans have been genetically enhancing other organisms through the process of selective breeding. Polls indicate alarm over the contamination of everyday foods. Americans are especially concerned about Genetically Modified Organisms. So, are they good or not? According to NewsELA, PRO/CON: Is it time to label GMO foods? GMO foods? Andrew Pollackmay's "Genetically Engineered Crops are Safe, Analysis Finds", and Janet Renee's "Benefits you get from a GMO" they talk about the merits and the demerits of GMO crops. GMOs are plant or animal products that have been reengineered in a lab. Scientists use the DNA of bacteria,

In my opinion, I see very little wrong with the genetic alteration of certain organisms. As described in the assigned reading, a similar process has been used for centuries. Selective breeding is very similar and has gotten us to where we are today. In parallel, evolution (should you believe in this theory) is much the same as well. The benefits of GMOs are huge and in my eyes most certainly outweigh the costs. In a world where people suffer and/or die of starvation daily, I believe that the arguments against GMOs are selfish. Instead, arguments should be made for implementation of regulations in the production and use of GMOs. Hardier, higher yield crops equal more food. More food equals better pricing. Better pricing equals better availability. I honestly don't see, in my opinion, how GMOs are such a controversial rather than regulation of GMOs to lessen or avoid any impact on the natural

Some benefits of genetically modified foods include the potential to create higher crop surpluses. This is significant because of the increasing population of our nation as well as worldwide. This opens doors for better trade and can provide farmers with more efficient structures and time management. GMOs also reduce the need for herbicides and pesticides. They reduce overall need for manual labor of farmers. GMOs are seen as more economical and beneficial to manufacturers. Besides technical assets, the quality of the food can be improved drastically as well. The foods can stay fresher longer and can also endure weather fluctuations along side with having the capability to grow and produce in originally unsuitable conditions. The most beneficial factor examined from genetically modified foods would be that they can specifically and personally be altered

The American Academy Of Environmental Medicine have found out, Gmos also cause organ damage, gastrointestinal and immune system disorders. They also discovered the GMOs leave material behind that leads to long terms problems

The main proponent to use gmos was to increase food production to feed the world's impoverished and to use less pesticides in farming. Gmos have not achieved any of its goals as world hungry still exist and pesticide use continues to be used at the same rate. The heavy use of pesticides is not good for the earth people or other life forms that come into contact with them. They are polluting our water and land and if we continue to use them heavily we will make our land infertile. Just off of these facts I believe the use of gmos should be reduced as we are fighting fire with fire. You can't help feed people of today by poisoning the land and water for the people of tomorrow it is an inefficient and illogical

GMOs have a positive impact on humans and keep us very healthy. GMOs can help you by giving different types of nutritions. GMOs can also help food sustain more longer than non GMOs while growing crops. With this being said, GMOs can possibly change our lives around. People have been consuming food containing GMOs for a good 100 years now. It wouldn't make sense if people stopped eat the foods that were genetically modified instead of being natural. Though in reality, GMOs are more positive than being negative.

GMOs are beneficial in many ways. GMOs are great for poor people to buy and grow. GMOs are safe and people have been eating them for a long time. Also these genetically modified foods are safe from pests and diseases that can make people or animals very sick. GMOs are beneficial for lot’s of people.

GMO’s are commonly misunderstood to be a negative way of producing food but contrary to popular belief they actually benefit americans and help america prosper. A GMO is a crop or livestock animal that has had its DNA altered and specific changes made to receive the desired result. Certain parts of DNA are either taken from or added to and organism to somehow better it. The use of GMOs in not as new as most citizens may think and can be very beneficial. GMOs are used quite often, they can
