Why do some people prefer to eat foods that are not genetically engineered?
People have genetically modified foods to make them more insect-repellant, to give higher crop yields, to give products with more appealing qualities (flavour, texture, shelf life); this provides benefits for both producer and consumer. Some crop have been modified to be resistant to certain brands of herbicides, so that the plants are not affected when the farmer sprays the area for weeds (see the Monsanto website). Other modifications take the form of plants that are modified to be resistant to saline soils, or drought conditions. These benefits can increase the yields of crops in poorer or arid parts of the world which are normally susceptible to food shortages.

Why are people so concerned about genetically modified food?
People are concerned about this because genetically modified food is not natural food. It was genetically modified by a human or a machine. In either case, man made machine, and man isn't perfect. So, because of that, people are so concerned.

Which person is least likely to be concerned about potential long term side effect of genetically modified (GM) food?
a child who is starving
Why was katniss scared of the wasp-nest the hunger games?
Katniss wasn't really that scared by the nest, but she was quite concerned. The 'wasp-nest' is actually a tracker-jacker nest. Tracker jackers are a genetically engineered spin off of wasps. Their stings can be extremely lethal and can cause hallucinations. If injected with too much of the venom, it can cause death (which was the case with Glimmer and the District 4 girl).
Which group is least likely to be concerned about potential long-term side effect of genetically modified (GM) food?
People who live in a poor village.

What are the most common types of technologies out there that are significant in this NEW "digital revolution"?
How many people would like control over the amount of genetically engineered foods they consume?
It is not known how many people want to control how much GMO food they eat. What is known is that organic food sales have risen since the introduction of GMO foods into the food supply. It's also known that in at least one case, people have influenced one major food manufacturer to stop using GMO ingredients in one of their products.
Which person is least likely to be concerned about potential long-term side effects of genetically modified (GM) food ?
The terminally ill are unlikely to be worried about the possible long term side-effects of gm foods. The elderly may also not be too concerned. Young children are unlikely to be concerned about gm foods. And most scientists are also unlikely to be concerned (the safety record of gm foods is pretty good).
Why has silk come under fire from animal rights activists?
They're genetically mutating goats to produce supersilk, which is (5x?) stronger than steel. The genetic mutation is what Animal Rights' activists are concerned with.
Which person is least likely to be concerned about potential long term side effects of genetically modified food?
A child who is starving
Which person is least likely to be concerned about potential long-term side effects of genetically modified food?
That would be hard to say. It is probably the group of people who are ignorant of the issue of genetically modified food and/or who have not studied the issue from a broad perspective and varied resources.
