Is it ethical to reprogram nature’s flavors?
Making crops tastier and healthier through gene editing is a big win for science and food security. But at the same time, it does feel a little strange to change what nature made. Still, if it helps people, maybe it’s worth it.
CRISPR is a great tool but the real question is are we improving crops for our betterment or for market trends
Altering what nature produces can seem strange and spark mixed opinions, but ultimately, all humans seek a better quality of life.
No it is not ethical to re program the nature flavour
If it increases the yield and is beneficial , why not ?
