We love a good robust debate here at the FSA and few subjects bring out the ‘robustness’ of people’s views like a discussion on GM crops. So to ensure that a range of views get an airing our latest edition of Bite Magazine is a GM special.
The latest issue of Bite contains plenty of cut and thrust, some heat and a lot of light on this controversial technology, bringing together the considered thoughts of leading scientists, researchers, consumer champions, farmers, food manufacturers, NGOs and Government Ministers, including representation from the Scottish and Welsh Governments.
So if you want to argue with Patrick Holden, Director of the Sustainable Food Trust, Professor Giles Oldroyd of the John Innes Centre, Lord Taylor of Holbeach, the Government’s lead Minister on GM or Sir John Beddington, the Government’s Chief Scientific Adviser on why GM should, or should not be overlooked in the battle for food security, check out Bite and join in the debate.
And if you haven’t heard the views of Mariam Mayet, from the African Centre for Biosafety, or Mark Buckingham, a scientist and spokesman for the biotech industry – now’s your chance.
Whether you’re for or against GM take this opportunity to have your say…
