Under Current: Why no to GMO?

from Undercurrent Hosted by Lo-Bo Creations

The moratorium on GM crops is being lifted in NSW on the 1st of July. It's the age old question: is GMO really good for us and the planet? I spoke with Associate Professor of Biosciences at The University of Melbourne, Alex Johnson about his ongoing GMO wheat trials, and about what GMO is capable of. Later in the show I also spoke with President of the Australian Food Sovereignty Alliance, Tammi Jonas, about natural ways of boosting biodiversity and food nutrition.

Presented by Stephen Fry, this series delves deep into a period of time we think we know, to discover an altogether darker reality. The stories we're told offer a different perspective on an era which underwent massive social change.
