Sustainability week…

You The chicken.

We’re going to select the two biggest chickens, with the most meat, meet together and form other chickens that will have a lot of meat too. This is going to be repeated with a lot of other chickens. At the end the chicken will become enormous!!! We are doing this so we can provide more meat for the 20 families.

Genetically modified food are made because there is some perceived advantage either to the producer or consumer of these foods. This is meant to translate into a product with a lower price, greater benefit in terms of durability or nutritional value or both.

Christians think that we shouldn’t be touching God’s nature, but others think God gave us the intelligence, so we have the right to GM animals.

Well OF COURSE it’s safe! In general genetic engineering puts different genes into the chicken so this will cause mutant children. But since we are genetically modifying chickens it’s not harmful to the chickens or us because they are just naturally laying eggs.

Back to this diagram, As the new big chickens are being selected in breeding, the old chickens that can no longer produce any eggs and no longer able to do anything, will be killed and sent to the poorest family so that they have more chickens to eat.
