GM foods



I'm against GM foods because I think they can be dangerous to human health, although I know there are no scientifical evidences of that.





I understand that some countries that face hunger problems see GM foods as great a solution,but the truth is that it's rich countries which have the technology bto go on with the genetical modifications. So it won't be the perfect solution.





In fact, I think GM foods bring more disadvantages than advantages they can affect the biodiversity of the planet because they can endanger some species which feed from the plants. Besides, GM foods can cause pesticide and herbicide tolerance and resistance to weeds and other wild plants and make humans resistant to some antibiotics that might save them.


To sum up, I´m totally against GM foods because I think theyy will threaten the balance of the nature.
