GMOs or genetically-modified organisms are living things that have had their genetics altered to reflect different traits. The process of genetically engineering these organisms involves slicing and inserting new strands of genetic material for the desired characteristic, which results in a variety of different organisms that cannot be found in nature or made through traditional crossbreeding methods. This piece will provide a detailed look into the world of GMOs, its critics, advocates, producers, and the real-world environmental and human health impacts.
