Chose prompt
In the essay “Let’s Base Decisions about Biotechnology on Science, Not Fear”, Norman Borlaug asserts that genetic engineering can be effectively used to address the problems of hunger and starvation in developing countries. His opponents believe that genetically modified (GM) food is harmful to people and should not be consumed by anyone, regardless of where they live, or what their social status is. Write an essay in which you explain your position on the issue of using GM food to defeat the world hunger. To create an argument, you can ask yourself: Is genetically modified (GM) food harmful? Can GM food help solve the problem of famine?
