I think it shows how disconnected we are from our food supply. Honestly all the low hanging fruits in farming (fertilizing, water etc) have been tapped out. Yes to understand GMO in detail requires you to take 3 and 4th year genetics because all the simpler methods of improving farming had already been used! In order to feed the world with the current existing farming infrastructure we have, we have to move to GMO and vertical farming.
We should be freaking grateful we have plenty of food and have the choice to pick whether we want to eat GMO or not.

Agreed.
It's like going back to early nuclear technology, without reactors around these people would be still plowing fields with steers and using candles for light
The people who GMO food are going to help are the people who..uhhh....Don't have food?..
