"GM Contamination Report 2005"

The genie is out of the bottle. Our grandchildren will curse us for allowing this.

It's been 10 years since commercial Genetically Modified (GM) crops were first introduced on a large scale in 1996. So what has been their effect? A report released this month by Greenpeace and GeneWatch U.K., titled "GM Contamination Report 2005" shows disturbing results.

Those who were skeptical about allowing GM crops to be commercially grown may now be witnessing the first realizations of their concerns. The report reveals 113 cases in which supposedly controlled GM crops have "leaked" into the natural environment. While this may not sound too ominous, these are the exact concerns that were voiced when GM crops were first proposed.

"This may well only be the tip of the iceberg, as there is no official global or national contamination register so far," said Dr. Sue Mayer of GeneWatch UK, who leads the team of investigators. "Most incidents of contamination are actually kept as confidential business information by companies as well as public authorities."
