"Organically Grown and Genetically Engineered: The Food of the Future" as part of The Long Now Foundation's Seminars About Long-term Thinking

[Michael Thompson]

Hi all,
this listserve has not yet gone into a coma. 

Steward Brand, and the Long Now Foundation which he started, have been pressing on questions around GMOs and organic agriculture.  Brand seems to think that GMOs are a necessary part of our future.  Please see this talk that was part of a Long Now Foundation seminar.

Pamela Ronald and Raoul Adamchak present "Organically Grown and Genetically Engineered: The Food of the Future" as part of The Long Now Foundation's Seminars About Long-term Thinking. They explore how genetic engineering can work with organic growing practices to produce food in a more sustainable way than either of them could alone.
