Raising Public Awareness About The Dangers Of Gene Editing.

Jeffrey Smith returns to the Urban Farm Podcast to talk about what he calls “GMO 2.0”, an easily attainable technology with the power to permanently change the genetic makeup of every living thing on earth. The foods we eat are already being changed and we are already being affected in ways we don’t yet understand, yet there are no controls in place to ensure the changes are safe. Jeffrey illuminates the very real dangers we face and tells us how we can fight back.
