What are the harmful effects of planting GMO's in a weeds?
GMO corn has been genetically altered to contain chemicals in it that will kill insects that eat the corn. What is bad is that the pollen also has the insect killing chemical. When the pollen gets blown from the corn to lets say milkweed, the monarch caterpillars that inadvertently come into contact with the blown pollen will die. So no monarch butterflies. If honey bees come to collect the pollen for their hives, this will sicken and kill the bees. No honey.
