GMOs are bad for your body, bad for the community, bad for farmers and bad for the environment. This is why: 1  The health consequences of eating genetically modified organisms are largely unknown. 2  Genetically engineered foods have not been shown to be safe to eat and may have unpredictable consequences. Biotech firms sell sterile seeds to African farmers-meaning the seeds are only good for one season, because the plants that grow up will not be able to reproduce. 2  Farmers must buy new seeds every year instead of growing from the previous yearâs yield. 3  GMOs are not the farmersâ friend.
3 Types of GMOs. The first type of GMO crop is called âBt Toxinâ (corn, soy, cotton). These crops are genetically engineered to have a built-in toxic pesticide and to constantly produce it at all times.When bugs try to eat this GMO crop, their stomachs explode and they die.e will not have a health care system. The third type of GMO is a crop that doesnât contain an injected pesticide. Instead, itâs genetically modified for a desired trait. They inject this desired trait, but the problem is that it has two promoters on either end of it. These promotersâ jobs are to wake genes up.
