Pros And Cons Of GMO Polls

After researching the polls from the PEW research site and various sources, i can see that there is a major disconnection between the public and scientist when it comes to major public issues such as climate change, GMOs, nuclear power and so on. Once i completed reading about these polls in the various sources, i could also see that certain sites choose to present these finding in different ways. These differences can be seen by reading the views of these polls from the washington post, NBC, and Reuters.com. When it came to NBC, they presented the results very similarly to the PEW research site in the way that they presented numbers and showed the differences on the views of the science and the public. They also provided information on how

In an article titled “the danger of GMO’s: Is it all in your mind?” we can see just how these uncertainties arise. When it comes to GMOs, four major stakeholders are all affected by the others uncertainties. These stakeholders include scientist,investors, local citizens, and also small business owners. In the article it stated that “ GMOs taps into deep cognitive biases.

If the citizens do not buy them,businesses will not have them in their stores because it would make them loss profit. If no one wants these GMOs, then investors will stray away from putting in money to make them which in turn will hurt the scientist. Scientist will also take a major hit, because the public might believe that the science is wrong and in turn create a larger gap in various aspects of later PEW
