I agree with Jesse…once the economy does better, maybe scientists can put forth more money towards testing and perform different experiments with the discovery

People need to understand what the term “genetically modified” actually means. If they become more biologically literate, then they will be more open-minded and willing to preserving our environment.

Is it a safe way to breed the cows?
Will they start having like…spontaneous combustion due to the intake of methane an not being able to expel it?
Haha, remake of the southpark episode???
I dunno…it just sounds a little fishy and if it’s not harmful…is it worth all the money and effort?

I am not really a fan of eating genetically cloned animals even though it is thought of as safe. The thought of the animal being cloned doesn’t sound very appetizing. It is very cool how scientists can change the different tracts of the cloned animal. I don’t think it is necessary to do that though if it harms the animal.

I think that genetically cloning is interesting but unnecessary. For many generations farmers have raised ruminant animals and the Earth is still around. Their farts and burps may emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, but I don’t think it’s enough to cause a drastic change.

Haha, this is kinda hilarious in a weird way??
But it’s pretty awesome…they are finding weird ways to cut down on emissions like painting roofs white which will apparently cut down about 11 years of cars’ effects on the environment.
And, I wonder how they measure the emissions made by the cows…
