Environmental Impact of Genetically Modified Crops

World population increased fourfold during the last century, with current estimates placing it at 9.2 billion by 2050. We are now facing a situation where food demand is beginning to outstrip supply, a scenario predicted some two centuries ago by the Reverend Robert Malthus (Jesus College Cambridg...
