IV. Speaking Out

MODEL 1   Why are people protesting against

             genetically 1 modified foods?

Susan: With so many people suffering from malnutrition 2 around the world, why are people protesting against genetically modified foods?

Chris: Some people are protesting about genetically modified foods, but even more people are protesting the fact that processed foods containing these ingredients aren’t labeled.

Susan: But why should they be labeled?

Chris: Not everyone is sure that genetically modified foods are safe. They want to be certain that biotech foods have the sme composition as organic foods.

Susan: But there are more urgent problems in this world. Many people are dying of starvation.

Chris: But those who aren’t starving may want genetically modified foods to be labeled so they know what foods they should andd shouldn’t eat.

Susan: You know, I heard of a genetically modified fish that grew to be ten times its normal size.

Chris: That sure sounds abnormal.

Susan: Yeah, it does sound a bit strange , but that fish could feed ten times as many people.

Chris: You’re right; genetically modified food might help solve world hunger. But I think we have a right to know what we are eating.
