I wonder if the trust issues around genetically modified crops involved whether or not they were safe for humans to ingest.
The gene code of plants is modified, and then humans eat that modified DNA --- even though there have been supposedly no ill effects reported, it just seems like something that could have unforeseen circumstances.
McBean accused oil, coal and other special interest groups of having confused people with false information, while scientists have done a poor job fighting back.
"We need to have that kind of information better conveyed to Canadians so they make better informed decisions.
I think Canadians are unfortunately not receiving the information they need on a whole range of issues." Other findings of the poll included:
One in two want spending on basic scientific research kept at the same levels.
Research into medicines seen as the highest priority, research into genetically modified crops the lowest.
Nearly half of Canadians believe research into climate change is a high priority. That is stupid since the U.S., parts of Europe and China are investing in this we should join France, India and work on new Thorium Nuclear Reactors and be investing in Nuclear Fusion.
Plus who said climate change was caused by man and what can we really do to stop it and I mean I am talking viable solution since Nulcear, LNG, and Hydro is the only real alternatives.
e and we cannot even get pipelines built to sell our Oil and and get world prices for it and make a profit off them.
That logic doesn't wash.
The oil spill in the gulf of mexico is likely to have had some effect on the gulf stream, because the very same year the gulf stream stopped, and England had the worst winter in all history.
Fact, Plumbing requirements for below ground frost depth had been established for a very long time because England had been enjoying the effects of the gulf stream all this time. But Moscow does not get that advantage so their temretures are normally lower but are at the same lattitude as england their plumbing requirements are significantly deeper to protect from freezing . Now that the gulf is stopped england is sharing the same tempreptures as Moscow.
BP is responsible for the spill but to make things worse due to greed, they are attempting to sink the oil, so no one else can harvest it ,,and the chemicals they are using including the oil ,is killing fish like crazy .
Fukashima is another example of human interference and the pacific is dieing as we speak . So between the radiation in the pacific and the poison in the atlantic I'd say we'r in trouble and people did it not nature .
