Environmentalists are concerned about genetically engineered trees because they may pose risks such as altered ecosystems, the potential for spread and invasiveness, genetic contamination of native tree populations, and impacts on biodiversity. There are also concerns about the long-term consequences of releasing these trees into natural environments.
Take over the world and enslave humankind. And some people are concerned that the events of September 11, 2001 were a US government conspiracy. And some people are concerned that UFO's are real and the government is trying to hide it. Come on, people, get a grip on reality.
They proudly are called Environmentalists.
A climate scientist would be interested, also an environmental scientist.
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.
I think that an environmentalists are people who study the environment. They can be chemists, engineers, biologists and other people with university or technical degrees or people who just are concerned about the environment and have studied it on the internet and by talking to experts. Well known environmentalists include: * David Attenborough * David Belamy * Gro Bruntland * Rachel Carson * Prince Charles Windsor * Al Gore * Julia "Butterfly" Hill. * David Suzuki
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.
Environmentalists are concerned about protecting plant life because plants play a crucial role in maintaining the ecosystem by producing oxygen, sequestering carbon dioxide, providing habitats for animals, and supporting the food chain. Loss of plant diversity can lead to ecosystem instability and negative impacts on human health and well-being.
they'd be concerned due to the fact that there are various issues that need to be addressed in the budget that are relevant to each group lobbying the government for action/support, an example would include environmentalists lobbying to stop the carbon tax

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).
There are a number of important green issues in today's world. For example, environmentalists are concerned about climate change, air pollution, reducing carbon footprints, and recycling, among other things.
