Two scientific papers make a firm call to exercise the Precautionary Principle in considering the commerical release of the genetically engineered Bt brinjal, until adequate studies are done to properly assess the risks of transgene flow from the crop. […] This TWN Biosafety Briefing discusses how changing the nature, kind and quantity of particular regulatory-RNA molecules through genetic engineering can create unique risks. […] This TWN Biosafety Briefing discusses how changing the nature, kind and quantity of particular regulatory-RNA molecules through genetic engineering can create unique risks. […] This TWN Biosafety Briefing identifies the sources of health risks that can potentially arise from GM foods as well as presents the increasing body of evidence that shows the disruptive effect of the GM transformation process and clear signs of toxicity i […] Study finds Argentina’s soy boom model socially and ecologically unsustainable and urgently calls for broader analytical frameworks for assessment of new agrarian technologies which encompass social and environmental considerations. […] This paper argues that agroecologically managed systems are best placed to cope with future challenges because they exhibit high levels of diversity and resilience while delivering reasonable yields and ecosystem functions. […] This TWN Biosafety Briefing provides some insights on the basic questions of what, why, when and how to include socio-economic considerations in GMO decision-making. […] This TWN Biosafety Briefing provides some insights on the basic questions of what, why, when and how to include socio-economic considerations in GMO decision-making.
