Why do people think GMOs are bad? There’s a lot of information out there claiming that GMOs are harmful, but be careful what advice you trust because, for some, misinformation pays.
Negative information about 'why GMO is bad' is often circulated by people who stand to benefit from shedding a negative light on genetically modified (GM) products. By positioning their own goods as a better, more ‘earth-friendly’ alternative to GMOs, they are able to increase their profits.
At GMO Answers, we think it’s important to share accurate information about whether GMOs are good or bad so people can make an informed decision. We've created a page that discusses the benefits of GMOs, and why some people still think GMOs might be bad for them or the environment.
