www.eusem.com: The story in the film "GM food and you" is a journey through the maze of complexities surrounding genetic modification. New technologies have a great influence on our daily lives and plant biotechnology is no exception. After all, plants provide us with the food we need to survive. However, plant biotechnology is a controversial area where both the basic research and its application to our daily lives is viewed with suspicion by members of the public. Legitimate concerns have been raised. The content of the film addresses the role genetic modification and plant biotechnology plays and is likely to play in our society. Is GM food safe to eat? What about the impact on our environment? Do we need it? Is all the truth told about GM crops? What about our right to choose? Can GM crops help the third world? See: www.eusem.com

  • Great film

    Great film. I'm researching this area and I found this short film really informative and well made and well scripted. Where can I get more of these European commissioned science films?
    Thank you!

    Sorry, but this has nothing to do with feeding starving people. GM food has already been banned as donations for 3rd world countries.

    Sorry, there's no God.

    Your "God" organic food cannot feed the whole world.

    You're just a racist who wants starving Africans to die.

    Orangic food gives less crop per acre.

    Organic food doesn't have as much Vitamin A as Golden Rice, which makes children blind.

  • People who wants ...

    People who wants ALL foods to be organic, and burn/vandalize genetically modifying labs are self-centered, racists.

    If all food are organic, it can hardly feed 1 billion people.

    Genetically modified food can withstand harsh weather climate, which means it can GROW ANYWHERE. It requires less care, and it's more resistant to deceases. It can ALSO yield more food PER ACRE.

    Even with that, genetically modified can ONLY feed 5 billion people.

    We have to continue to modify food!

  • I have a GMO banana ...

    I have a GMO banana hanging from a string outside my window. I heard that placing it beside my hummingbird feeder would attract flies & help to attract hummingbirds. It's 82 degrees today. The banana has been there for 4 days & so far not a single fly has even landed on it. It's the same as with my margarine experiment (which is plastic); flies avoid it. We also know that geese avoid GMO field crops. BTW, we haven't seen a honeybee around our house now for about a year. Monsanto/GMO is death.

  • I also agree with ...

    I also agree with viewing "Island at Risk". Finally TRUE accounts of how this toxic waste food causes not only bad crops but actual Pollution by Virus and bacteria. The ocean coral has HERPES!!! Are the liars going to say that they didn't cause this? The Salmon are dying out of the Ocean. Their answer? Clone GMO fish. NO! Ban the Assholes and their toxic waste crops.

  • A most recent study ...

    A most recent study showed not only are GMO's more toxic with Roundup which has been PROVEN to be cancer causing, but crops are actually smaller!So the whole spiel of how this toxic waste food will help feed people is absolutely ludicrous. Plus with the added factor of food allergies, our bodies NOT being able to get any vitamins from this toxic food, and cancer does ANYONE feel this crap is worth eating?

    bees are dieing due to the tobacco companies putting their waste products into insecticides, got to dump some place like the 40 yr. old fluoride they were not allowed to dump back then had to store all this time. other animals dont eat the left honey when the bees leave as they dont want either. all poisoning like preparing for another race of beings.
