The process of genetic modification involves inserting a gene from bacteria or a virus into an organism where it would normally not be found. The purpose is to alter the genetic code in plants and animals to make them more productive or resistant to pests or farming techniques, like being doused with chemicals that would ordinarily kill them. Pros: - Spend less money producing more food - Use fewer pesticides and herbicides - Do less tilling to remove weeds, thereby protecting the soil Cons: - Creating “super weeds” that have evolved a resistance to glyphosate, a common herbicide in GMO food production - Plants that produce their own insecticide, a bacterial toxin Bacillus thuringiensis (BT), which has led to BT-resistant bugs. - A human population that is unwittingly consuming BT since the insecticide is part of GMO plants. - Disappointing crop yields and doubt over the environmental benefits of reduced tilling. - Unhealthy for consumption
