Posted Tue Feb 19 2008: from The Guardian:
Consequences of GM crop contamination http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1203389499
"The consequences of contamination between GM crops and non-GM varieties will be much more serious with the next generation of GM crops, an influential group of US scientists has warned. Mixing between GM and non-GM varieties has already caused serious economic losses for producers in lost sales and exports. But the consequences of mixing will be much more serious with new crops that are altered to produce pharmaceuticals and industrial chemicals, the scientists argue. The crops could harm human health and be toxic to wild animals."

This story reminds us of recent findings that salmon farms are harming their wild counterparts. A case of the town salmon corrupting the country salmon.
See that story: salmon farms.
