Global lobbying of GMO producers

Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) issues evoke extreme reactions. New agricultural biotechnologies using transgenic or genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are being opposed on an exceptionally large scale. The vast majority of opponents want to have at least labels on products that may contain GMOs, while the most extreme of them (particularly in Western Europe) demand the total exclusion of GMO from production and consumption in their countries.The issues have been publicly discussed for many years – the first GMO came into being over 43 years ago – both sides, not only in Poland, accuse each other of manipulating facts, pursuit of profit without taking consequences into account, as well as hysteria as the response to more and more precise analyses on the influence of GMO on a human organism.
