轉基因生物對人類健康的影響,正在引發持續不斷的激烈爭論。Chipotle等大型連鎖餐廳日前正式禁止使用轉基因原料。許多國家和地區也發布了轉基因禁令,或者對種植這類作物施以嚴格的限制,其中包括俄羅斯、意大利托斯卡納區、包括德國在內的多個歐盟國家、菲律賓、沙特阿拉伯,以及澳大利亞塔斯馬尼亞島。

????菲律賓 ????菲律賓上訴法院在2012年規定,禁止種植所有轉基因茄子,即所謂的Bt talong。盡管轉基因蔬菜從未被大規模種植,但相關試驗也被終止,植株遭到了銷毀。此后不久,近400名抗議者砸毀了比科爾島地區農場周圍的籬笆,將轉基因水稻連根拔起。這一事件顯示,關于轉基因生物的爭論已經波及到了第一世界國家之外。 |
????Philippines ????The Philippines Court of Appeals ruled in 2012 that all genetically modified eggplants, known as Bt talong, arebanned from cultivation. While the vegetable never made it to large-scale production, the trials were halted and the plants destroyed. Not long after, nearly 400 protestors smashed the fences around a field in the Bicol region and uprooted genetically modified rice plants. The incidents reveal that the debate over GMO crops has moved beyond first-world nations. |
