[…] Dr Mae-Wan Ho reports on the publication of the human genome map in 2001 and assesses its implications. The findings on the nature of genes is crucial in understanding why genetic engineering is flawed and why it gives rise to serious biosafety concerns. […] This report by Dr Mae-Wan Ho was written before the final publication of the complete human genome map in 2001. […] Three scientists, Drs. Mae-Wan Ho, Joe Cummins and Jeremy Bartlett describes what “terminator technology” involves, the scientific implications and its threats to biodiversity and human health. […] In 2001, a deadly new virus was created during a genetic engineering experiment has set off warning bells that the use of the technology should be very carefully monitored and regulated. […] Gurdial Singh Nijar presents the StarLink case, which involved the contamination of GE corn not approved for humans in the food chain, as an example to examine issues related to liability and redress for harm arising from GMOs. […] This paper examines the the socio-economic aspects of GMOs and calls for the application of the precautionary principle to protect communities from the adverse effects of GMOs.
