Of course, farbeit from the U.N. to consider the safety of using such food products. According to one Plastic reader, "No matter that many of these [countries] do not suffer from a lack of food (it's the civil instability that places the food in the middle of some tribal/political debate). The [U.N.'s] agency—working closely with members of biotech and agricultural companies—has pledged to help countries afford (read: go into to debt to obtain) G.M. crops that are suitably modern." Greenpeace, thankfully, is already organizing mass-resistance to the U.N.'s decision. You can learn more about the dangers of genetically modified foods by visiting Monsantos.com, The Organic Consumers Association and The International Center for Technology Assesment."
