On
the breadline
Photos by Kess Bohan
The GM lobby
groups are forever arguing that we need genetically engineered
crops to solve the problem of the booming urban population
and starvation in poor countries.
Why does the West assume that
the people of poor nations are too stupid to realise that
actually, that Thomas Malthus theory of
overpopulation is a tired old 19th Century notion concocted
during the Industrial Revolution? And that it is only relevant
to a small, overcrowded country like the UK? Pretty handy for
scare-mongering, no doubt.
There is enough food for everyone.
