News: Genetically Modified Crops

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/ QUOTE The mass development of genetically modified crops risks causing the world's worst environmental disaster, The Prince of Wales has warned.   In his most outspoken intervention on the issue of GM food, the Prince said that multi-national companies were conducting an experiment with nature which had gone "seriously wrong". The Prince, in an exclusive interview with the Daily Telegraph, also expressed the fear that food would run out because of the damage being wreaked on the earth's soil by scientists' research. He accused firms of conducting a "gigantic experiment I think with nature and the whole of humanity which has gone seriously wrong". .... "What we should be talking about is food security not food production - that is what matters and that is what people will not understand. "And if they think its somehow going to work because they are going to have one form of clever genetic engineering after another then again count me out, because that will be guaranteed to cause the biggest disaster environmentally of all time." Small farmers, in particular, would be the victims of "gigantic corporations" taking over the mass production of food. "I think it's heading for real disaster," he said. "If they think this is the way to go....we [will] end up with millions of small farmers all over the world being driven off their land into unsustainable, unmanageable, degraded and dysfunctional conurbations of unmentionable awfulness." I think the Prince is spot on! Of course, most of y'all know my views on this topic (see Heritage Seeds thread Here). "Unmentionable awfulness." Perfect phrase for what seems to be happening, in my opinion. [See Similar Topics]
