RE: New on the menu: GM salmon
Forget the health concerns of the common people. They may be high priorty but we need to think about the future. These salmon have the potential to destroy every habitat on earth. If a natural disaster such as a hurricane were to hit the fisheries where theses GM salmon are being raised, they could be released into the wild. Salmon are an extremely hardy animal and since these salmon have been reported to never stop growing they will grow to massive proportions and will eventually out compete the ecosystems native tertiary consumers. This would destroy all the earths ecosystems. For those who are only concerned about the well being of humans they have a stake in this too. With habitats all around the world destroyed, we also will parish. All of this is the results of man's greed. This has happened all over the world before with organisms like the cane toad. However, this GM salmon has a much greater potential then the ones before it. This is all a dramatization but a very possible one since Murphey's Law is always in play it is only a matter of time. Will you wait until the above senario goes into play, or will you speak up and do something about this? This is for certain, Evan Molitor will do everything in with in there power to prevent the worst. I humbly ask that you do the same.
