[QUOTE="Neotheone, post: 2515063, member: 487"] Perfect example! Unfortunately, humans currently do not have the ability to predict, nor do companies/regulators even try to assess long term impact of genetically modified food, because no company can wait for 20-30 years before selling their new patented technology (do note that even 20 years is not one generation). However, the human body is a complex system, and small genetic changes can potentially have unpredictable consequences. Further, conventional science today assesses short term safety based on limited risk factors for the [B]individual [/B]and assumes that there would be no long-term adverse consequences for the collective. Risks do not map, or scale linearly from individual to the collective, so long-term risks are ignored not just for the [B]human race, [/B]but also for [B]the concerned crop [/B]and the[B] ecosystem[/B].
