Body
-
The conspiracy theory associates GMO foods with infertility. However, I reviewed numerous research articles, and there is no evidence linking GMO foods to infertility.??
- For instance, in their study, Keshani et al. (2020) found out that GM foods do not cause any infertility issues, including sperm abnormality, motility, and sperm head.
TRANSITION: There are numerous articles articles I?? have researched.
-
Despite evidence from researchers, some people still believe in the conspiracy theory.
- A poll by the Journal of the American Medical Association revealed that 19 percent of people believe in the GMO conspiracy theory, 12 percent supported it, but 42 percent disagreed (Oliver, 2014).

Conclusion

- Understand the effects of GMOs.
- What will Rockefeller and Ford foundations and Monsanto gain from shrinking the world population? How can scientists not find evidence linking GMO foods to infertility, yet the conspiracy theory is still popular? Isn???t it ironic that people, especially those in developing countries, die from hunger every year, yet we are worried GMO foods will shrink the population?I believe Monsanto just wants to address world hunger using GMOs.
