Thirty eight (38) countries worldwide have officially banned the cultivation of GM crops and only 28 actually grow GM crops (most of which grow under 500 thousand hectares). The picture painted by the Biotech industry and the U.S. government that GM crops have been accepted by the majority of countries worldwide is therefore quite obviously wrong.
In fact many countries have recently started to put in place regulations to protect their population and environment from the environmental and health damage caused by GM crops.

첫댓글 GMO를 상용화 시키려는 개념 없는 정치인들에게만 GMO 식품을 평생 먹게했으면 좋겠습니다.
그들은 정작 입에 대지도
않을거예요
가난한 서민들만 쓰레기 같은 음식을 먹죠 ㅠㅠ
우리도 gmo에 개념 좀 있는 나라가 되었으면 하네요 정권이 바뀜 가능할까요?
GMO에 대해 한국만큼 너그러운 곳도 아마 드물 듯합니다. 답답한 현실이지요.쩝.
