Maman Istel Comes to Town

Some say that Genetically Modified (GM) food causes harm to our bodies while some say that it is a necessity if we are to ever feed the growing population of the world. American astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson has defended controversial genetically modified organisms (GMO) and feels that we should be more relax on this matter. He reportedly claims that GM food has been done for aeon years and we should not be shocked at this fact. He proclaimed that each and every produce that we have purchased in the stores for our consumption has been genetically modified in some way. The tampering with nature makes some worrisome but a number of known scientist concluded that GM crops are crucial in feeding the rapidly flourishing population. Scientists have manipulated genes of certain crops to make them resistant to infections which would lead to major food shortages.
