There are many justifications for Genetically Engineered Foods. All of
them have strong counter-arguments that many people are simply not aware
of. This article does not dive deep into those, but simply focuses on
one small aspects that concerns many experts in the field.
In
March 2014, scientists from Indiana University announced that they had
conducted research to examine the operations of the fruit fly genome “in
greater detail than ever before possible” and had identified “thousands
of new genes, transcripts and proteins.”
Their results
indicated that the fly’s genome is “far more complex than previously
suspected and suggests that the same will be true of the genomes of
other higher organisms.”
Of the approximately 1,500 new genes
that were discovered, 536 of them were found within areas that were
previously assumed to be gene-free zones. Furthermore, when the flies
were subjected to stresses, small changes in expression level at
thousands of genes occurred, and four newly modelled genes were
expressed altogether differently.
Why is this important? Because
it reveals how little we know about this planet and the organisms
dwelling on it, yet also how much we think we know. This kind of hubris
is found within all areas of human knowledge, but particularly when it
comes to science.
When it comes to our genes, and the genes of
other organisms, we really know next to nothing. Unfortunately,
proponents of the biotech industry claim otherwise, and have developed
multiple, flawed assumptions that undergird agricultural bioengineering....<<<Read More>>>...
