This post will go ...Ethics on GMOs Part II of III<br /><br /> This post will go over the more ethical aspects of GMO use. The debate isn't so much science vs anti-science, but a debate to how public the scientific world should be. GMO labeling remains a top priority in the debate on GMOs. 64 countries already have mandatory labeling for foods containing GMOs. but the US has yet to follow. People deserve to know what they are buying, and the myths against GMO labeling are kinda off. They say food prices will see a spike if GMOs are labeled. Companies have to change labeling all the time, and there has never been any major price spikes because of it. And voluntary measures are a joke, as the FDA has allowed companies to voluntarily label their GMO projects, but no major companies have even started to. Mandatory labeling is the only way to go if we are to give the public what they want. <br /> Other ethical debates focus on how long the studies go on. Right now in the US, only 5 years of testing are required for seeds to be planted. Some scientists, including the infamous Bill Nye, say that 5 years isn't enough for the long term effects to be seen. This could be dangerous for the long term ecological and health effects for humans.
