GMO crops offer the potential to grow more food - of higher quality- with less resources - in a smaller space. That doesn't sound like a very good model for ecological destruction. If I was hellbent on destroying me some ecology - I'd stick with the old, resource hungry, inefficient, low yield, pesticide addicted crops- personally.

Because we are thereby having a negative impact on the enviorment.

I dont have a problem with GMO, I see great gains being made with for example gene manipulated salmon which produces more meat, cows that produce more milk and other.

But they have to be contained and prevented from getting into the enviorment where they could destruct the ecological balance.
