Re: Gene Tinkering: YOU Are The Mice And They Don't Want You to Know
Just a thought. In which countries is the combined 1% production
increase occuring and in which countries is the 1.6% (a reference to
these stats. wouldn't go astray) population growth occuring.
In the the future I dont foresee any drastic change in the status quo
of rich countries producing a food crop called commodities, and poorer
countries haveing a hungry population boom (for what ever reason,this is
not the issue here).
So this theory of "(gene)science" being the hero in solving the future
short falls in the food supply of humanity is rather narrow. The issue
is much larger and should be approached holistically with a possible
solution being the combination of a multitude of stratigies.
Science is not the answer for everything. Dont get me wrong, science
can be good, make a business out of it and there is the potential for
disaster.
