I mean in terms of genetic altering. We are dealing with a living, reproductive organism. Where as a chemical can just be taken out of use, a genetically altered plant can go on living without assistance from man. We know for a fact that some chemicals and pesticides made 50 years ago caused other negative side effects. For example, the same genetic mutation used to ward off crop infestation in corn from other insects may just as well be killing off our bees. I have no doubt that one of these "Frankenstein crops" are going to cause a massive problem for the ecosystem in some form, sooner or later.

I'm gonna go hug a tree now!
