Oh also,
Food corporations making a little less money vs global climate catastrophe... well, it should be obvious. Not even the same league.
Besides, people will come around on GMO's and even if they dont, industry will find an even better way. That's what innovation does. It's not wrong to be critical of what you eat, even if you are wrong.
Plus food corporations are not the nicest companies to begin with. They need to clean their act up in many other ways. So I don't feel bad for them
And yes, there needs to be social responsibility on the consumers parts. We expect too much for too little in wealthy nations. In some ways, the buck stops with us and these companies are fulfilling needs.
However, in other ways they grease politicians, block helpful legislation, and generally act like greedy asshats. Harming ecosystems, people, and animals when they really don't need to. Perhaps if they ran their businesses better, people might trust them and their products more.
