Bill Nye on Genetic engineering
← Back to Bill Nye Profile
โI went to Monsasnto, and I spent a lot of time with the scientists there, and I have revised my outlook, and I'm very excited about telling the world. When youโre in love, you want to tell the world.โ
โI stand by my assertions that although you can know what happens to any individual species that you modify, you cannot be certain what will happen to the ecosystem. Also, we have a strange situation where we have malnourished fat [[people]. Itโs not that we need more food. Itโs that we need to manage our food system better. So when corporations seek government funding for genetic modification of food sources, I stroke my chin.โ
