GMO isn't very good for biodiversity (based on projected economic effects if nothing else) - even though it requires biodiversity as a toolkit. But thats -on farm- biodiversity (albeit of a global sort), not exactly teeming with multitudinous expressions of the wonder of life as-is....eh?
You (and others) are conflating creating/using GMOs with misusing GMOs.
Your concern above is with monoculture - that's a dangerous thing GMO or not.
What are we talking about here? Biology, public policy, farming practices, patent policy, fear-mongering, what?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
