The global conflict over genetically modified foods involves major corporations like Monsanto and environmental activists such as Greenpeace, both of whom present conflicting narratives about biotech agriculture. While corporations advocate for modified crops that could enhance food supply resilience, critics warn of potential risks to health and ecosystems. Peter Pringle critiques the misleading claims from both sides and proposes a collaborative approach among consumers, corporations, scientists, and farmers to fully harness biotechnology's potential in addressing world hunger and promoting environmental health.
