Gene editing is a new form of creating genetically engineered crops, and it is cheap and it is easy. This means that the number of GMOs that could be introduced, not only into our food supply, but into the environment, can be catastrophically large.

One critical issue with GMOs, including genetic editing, is that it is prone to side effects. The biotech industry wants to pretend that gene editing is safe and predictable and just like breeding, and they've convinced governments, in some cases, to turn a blind eye.

In this episode Jeffrey will share with you the real truth about gene editing and the seven reasons why things can go wrong in the process.

The 7 reasons:

Cutting the wrong place
Sloppy repair
Mixing genes
Mutant proteins
Insertion damage
Mutations from the process
Epigentic inheritance

IRT has created an excellent video with educational graphics that give a clear and understandable breakdown of this complicated technology. WATCH THE VIDEO HERE.
