I was reading a thread on GM technology on the Debate Zone in SagaZone and saw these three comments:
Thatโs because Iโm not a scientist. Iโve asked in this thread for articles that donโt support my opinion but as yet no one has furnished them. Iโm guessing itโs harder to find them than the ones that support me.
My guess is that we are not sufficiently interest to bother
Thatโs fine, Iโm not asking anyone to contribute to the thread. Although there are those sufficiently interested to join in I see
GMO Thread on SagaZone
It was apparent during our GM Food Zone event and the evaluation afterwards that that people who opposed GM technology were far more likely to comment than those who were in favour of it. The comments above however demonstrate the danger of that. A vacuum will be filled. If people who support research into controversial technologies do not speak up then others will and weโll be left with only one view being represented publicly.
