• A Golden Rice Opportunity

  Mr. Lomborg, once again, writes from myopic thinking. Health is not simply a business of cost effectiveness. I strongly recommend Mr. Lomborg looks deeper into the genetically modified debate before drawing such simplistic conclusions. Rice is a staple daily diet (often the only food) for many cultures. Fortifying natural rice with anything can risk many reactions, allergies and even death. In this instance one should be aware that there is such a thing as Vitamin A overdose... There is a great danger of creating even greater problems by the use of this gene altered rice which may take years to show up in the human body. But then Big Pharma will reap the spoils eh? Restoring nature to a balanced biodiversity instead of taking a gmo colonial approach may serve the world much better Mr. Lomborg.
