PRESS RELEASE 17 JUNE 2012<br />
NEW REPORT BY GENETIC ENGINEERS<br />
WHY<br />
IS DANGEROUS<br />
Aren’t critics of genetically engineered food anti-science?<br />
Isn’t the debate over GMOs (genetically modified organisms) a spat<br />
between emotional but ignorant activists on one hand and rational<br />
GM-supporting scientists on the other?<br />
A new report released recently, “GMO Myths and Truths”,<br />
challenges these claims.<br />
The report presents a large<br />
body of peer-reviewed<br />
scientific and other<br />
authoritative evidence of<br />
the hazards to health and<br />
the environment posed by<br />
genetically engineered<br />
crops and organisms<br />
(GMOs).<br />
Unusually, the initiative for<br />
the report came not from<br />
campaigners but from two<br />
genetic engineers who<br />
believe there are good<br />
scientific reasons to be<br />
wary of GM foods and<br />
crops.<br />
