Deregulating GMOs in Europe: A Recipe for Risk
Sin etiquetas, control ni precaución: desregular los transgénicos en Europa comportaría graves riesgos
Summary
A proposed EU law could allow genetically modified foods to reach consumers' plates without labelling or adequate safety controls, if the European Parliament fails to act. Critics warn that deregulating GMOs in Europe poses serious health and environmental risks. The legislation would represent a major rollback of the precautionary standards that have long governed food safety in the bloc.
