Can you elaborate on the bolded. Not sure what exactly you're trying to get at there.

As for GMOs lacking diversification. Can you also elaborate on that. I don't think you know what GMOs are...
I am certain you do not understand...the arguments most often made against GMOs are often baseless or misunderstood, yet the most scary of all considerations is rarely mentioned. By producing a single crop, fish or whatever, and selling that around the world at the expense of the natural crop, fish or whatever, the species that used to exist in an area no longer exists. By virtue of replacement, the assorted strains and species that used to exist in the world no longer exist, except for in a lab somewhere. If a natural predator, disaster or other event harms/impacts the GMO species/variant, there could be massive devastation. Impacting biodiversity is not good...The scientists behind GMOs try to manage this (or so they say), but I am not sure how successful they are.
