As many of you all-ready know prohibition of me and my relatives will be lifted soon. We as a species are thrilled about this, we are ready to help you humans live more sustainable lives. We can provide safe and nutritious food , help reverse the greenhouse , medicate the sick , fuel your car and so much more. We have heard it through the plant community that plants are being genetically modified. Our plant community is being destroyed and we are worried that we are next. We have bragging rights in the plant kingdom as we are the most versatile plant of all. We will lose these rights and you will lose our versatility and safeness to consume if you allow us to be mutated and patented. We need a voice as we cannot speak for ourselves, remember we are all inter-connected in this web of life!Your friend and relative , Cannabis
Genetically Engineered Food
Safety Problems
Written so that everybody can understand
without prior knowledge about genetics
Genetically engineered (GE) foods, sold in most food stores in the US and in many other countries may be hazardous to the health and may harm the environment.

Our main conclusions
It is a well established fact that science knows much too little about the effects of genetic engineering to be able to predict and master the consequences.
Harmful effects that may affect human health as well as environmental damage are indicated by increasing scientific evidence.
Therefore genetic engineering has to be confined to contained laboratories until science knows what it is doing.

What foods are genetically engineered?
Many common foods are, including: Corn, Soy, Wheat, Canola, Tomato , Potato , Rice , Cantaloupe , Sugar beet - (all kinds of sugar) , Radicchio , Flax (linseed) , Papaya , Squash , Oilseed rape, Alfalfa.
