USDA to Prepare Environmental Impact Statement for Genetically Engineered Sugar Beets – Seeks Public Comment
Here is your opportunity to tell the USDA your comments concerning the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), specifically sugar beets. This is their article with a link to comment online or address to mail your comments.
There has been no extensive study to determine the safety of tampering with God's genetic design but there is coming to light more and more information calling into question the health and safety of GMOs and their unfulfilled promises of increased productivity. Here is one study by the Union of Concerned Scientists.
Here is another article about GMO soy production in Argentina, which I have posted before. One point this article makes is that the use of herbicides was to decrease with the use of this GMO soya but herbicide use has actually increased and herbicide resistant super weeds are being found.
