Though they should not necessarily make GMO foods illegal, the following are some of the concerns that should be addressed:
- The possibility that growing GMO foods may cause greater weed resistance within a shorter amount of time.
- Potential harm to soil from the greater amounts of pesticides used on GMO crops
- Possible harm to beneficial insects from varieties that are engineered to produce a substance that kills insects
- Greater enviromental pollution and higher amounts of pesticides on the foods that are genetically engineered
- Cross-pollination of GMO varieties with non-GMO varieties that transfers the GMO to non-GMO and organically grown varieties.
