In conclusion, GM food is a new invention, and very little scientific information exists about the risk of GM food on human health or the world's ecosystems. One major study done by some doctors explains how GM foods could trigger new allergies and contain toxins that may be harmful. However, there is no such evidence which shows that it has affected human health or it has harmed the world's ecosystems till date. And one should never forget the fact that the population is rising rapidly and the food we have is not enough to feed the world. About 840 million people “around 13%” of the global population are facing empty plates, and malnutrition is estimated to kill 40,000 victims every day. Especially, Africa where growing population, stagnating agricultural productivity, and increasing climate change is making even more difficult for Africa to tackle poverty, hunger and malnutrition. I believe Genetically-modified foods have the potential to solve many of the world's hunger and malnutrition problems, and to help protect and preserve the environment by increasing yield and reducing reliance upon chemical pesticides and herbicides. Yet there are many challenges ahead for governments, especially in the areas of safety testing, regulation, international policy and food labeling. Many people feel that genetic engineering is the inevitable wave of the future and that we cannot afford to ignore a technology that has such enormous potential benefits. However, we must proceed with caution to avoid causing unintended harm to human health and the environment as a result of our enthusiasm for this powerful technology.
