Declarations about the good intentions to feed poor with the aid of genetic engineering are laughable, when these patent and are placed under their control the products, which compose the basis of the ration of the inhabitants of the developing countries (such, as fig “to” or corn). Third World Countries depended on these plants by millenia, and now they were forced to buy their seeds in western corporations. As indicates the co-author of the book “limits of an increase” In Of , “statements, that genetic engineering is necessary in order to feed hungry, they are based on two assumptions: the first - that those starving will as a result obtain more than food, the second - that genetic engineering is the only method to obtain higher harvests. However, in my opinion, an increase in the production of food will hardly help that, who cannot allow itself to buy or to rear it, especially with the aid of the expensive patented modified seeds”. [TNK] indicate that the world hunger and a swift increase in the population of planet, especially in the Third World Countries, can be substantially softened with the aid of the miracles of biotechnology and Gm- food. In the sadly famous advertizing campaign of firm Monsanto in Great Britain was advanced the slogan: “Uneasiness about the starving future generations will not feed them. Biotechnology will make this”. Certainly, world hunger is at present serious problem, moreover, this authentic crime against humanity. The reason for world hunger - not in a deficiency in the food and not in a deficiency in the earth for its cultivation, but in the steady in the national and Pan-European level policy and the practice, which only contributes to the propagation of this calamity and to the prolongation of human sufferings. Genetic engineering will not feed and will not save the starving masses - precisely the opposite. In the opinion the organizations Of christian Of aid (Great Britain), “Gm- culture create classical prerequisites for the appearance of hunger. The food ration, whose basis they compose several plants, creates the most serious threat of food safety.
