But I agree with the sentiment, Monsanto is an evil corporation.

Almost all foods are in some way genetically modified, whether it’s the cow producing your milk or the carrots grown in your yard. Genetic modification has always involved the selection of, and breeding for, characteristics you want and hoping a random combination of genes in the offspring develops those characteristics in a positive way for you. It’s a slow method with a high risk of error. Thanks to science we now have a way of precisely inserting the genes we want in the places we want them. It’s no longer left to random chance. It’s actually a safer, more effective way of getting the characteristics you want. And Bermudians especially should be very, very thankful for GMO organisms. After all that’s where the insulin needed by diabetics come from – genetically modified yeast cells.

If you’re protesting the excessive use of pesticides and herbicides, that’s something totally different. The genetic modification of certain plants to be more tolerant of certain pesticides has encouraged the overuse of those pesticides. This is NOT a GMO issue.

Anyway, I’ll support BEST’s virtual march with my virtual donation.
