A Bright Future With Genetically Modified Superfoods

A bright future with genetically modified superfoods--a world where science fiction comes to life through clones-- a world where sickness and disease have been abolished-- a time when the gender of a child can not only be determined but also it can be selected-- These descriptions explore a time and place that sound like a science fiction movie based in some kind of distant future, but it is not. The time for this miraculous and wondrous technology is now. Human ingenuity and intelligence has soared far above the levels that the human race has ever thought possible; humans are right on the threshold of these and many other genetic engineering and biotechnological advances. Regardless of the limitless possibilities, nay-sayers say the risks far outway the benefits. Critics say that these new advances are far too dangerous and too experimental; however, this tremendously beneficial form of science has the capabilities to progress far beyond thresholds of what the science community previously thought possible. Therefor, this new form of science should be funded and supported by people and the government. The first greatly beneficial yield that comes from biotechnology and genetic engineering is genetically modified foods or â€Å"GM† foods. The population of the united states and of the world is growing at an extremely rapid pace, which means the rate of food produced will have to escalate at the same or a greater rate. The only problem is that almost half of the Earth is
