Re: Ag biotech (MON)

This is a repost from the SI board for the 2010 charity contest
in reply to ‘Arthur Radley,’ who is evidently a skeptic vis-à-vis
the benefits of ag biotech.

[AR]: I will stay out of the debate on Monsanto…

[Dew]: I don’t think there’s a bona fide debate going on. Unless cities are converted into farmland, there’s not going to be enough farm acreage to feed the world’s population without increased use of biotechnology.

Thus, if you are opposed to ag biotech, you may skip the intellectual arguments in support of your opposition and cut to the chase: simply tell us which people should be the ones to go hungry.

Feedback welcome.
