The Effects Of GMO Products

In 1994 the first GMO product, which was a tomato at the time arrived at its first ever grocery store. The delayed ripening of this tomato on shelves was a lot more profitable than the local organic tomato’s that they originally had. In 1996 in Australia the first ever GMO herbicide was used and sprayed amongst crops which started the first stage of pollution and argumentative controversy that will last until the day it stops. By 2011 negative toxins in a pregnant women were found and said to have passed to the fetus. GM products have been running the food industry ever since it became the newest way to farm and mass produce crops. Although harming someone’s personal health, environment, and way of living isn’t the answer to creating sustainable foods on a mass level and it must be stopped now. The production of GM materials could be the beginning of a new era of cheap sustainable foods, however it can also be the beginning of an era of fatal, and life threating diseases and illnesses that will not just stop but spread until something is done about the production of GMO goods.
The claim of saying GMO’s are not bad for you or the environment can be made since there is no plausible evidence to show that GMO’s are bad. Companies are actually extremely benefiting from GM made products and the mass-production of these materials can make prices much lower in grocery stores across the Untied States. Although these are not reasons to continue the manufacturing of GM foods simply cause the risk of continuing to make these can spell disaster for the environment, personal health, and plants. GM materials can also potentially decrease the nutritional value of plants, and foods when new bacteria is put into them and is not labeled because th...

The pollution that comes from these products doesn’t just help keep the GM plants alive but they also kill off insects, birds, and any other animal that comes in contact with enough GM material to kill them. The pollution of these herbicides can easily spread to another farm that doesn’t use GM materials in their crops as well and kill off anything in its midst. While GM products are being sold in our local grocery stores as well the FDA wont even let out the results of what they exactly have in them and what effect (GM products) can potentially have on an individuals health. All in all GM products are effecting the environment and foods we eat in a negative way and if something isn’t done very soon there is no limit on how big the consequences can be.
