1) How do we make agricultural sustainable, while still ensuring we have a enough yield per year to feed the ever growing world population? What are your solutions?
2) The advocates of genetic engineering ignore the Laws of Thermodynamics. Explain this idea of trade-offs: “Can genetically engineered plants actually increase food production and, at the same time, repel pests, resist herbicides, and compete with weeds for water and nutrients?”
3) Are alternative approaches such as organic or low input agriculture feasible in our burgeoning (growing) global society? Explain your answer.
4) Take on the role of policy makers and come up with an International Policy for the use of GMOs. Please right a full 1-2 paragraphs. Be thoughtful and specific in your answer.
